| I'm now quite sure that our Championship squad is better than their SL squad.
Not only that, our squad will be strengthened, theirs is only weakening.
I'm not convinced they will be in SL next year.

| Quote: vastman "What makes this over confidence even more ludicrous is that it totally ignores history. Give us a relegation decider and we are the best. Give us a game that might bring us some glory and our record over the past forty years has been truly abysmal. I may be wrong but we have only won once, the YC and that’s our only other final appearance as well.Two CCup semis, one of which was embarrassing. That’s it, it’s not like we have a recent history of success.
Bradford do, and although they are a shadow of what they were they at least have a culture of winning these kinds of games.
As a club we need to get back into the zone and actually get a hunger back for success, even modest success in this case.
If people think we are over that clitch think again. I know the weather played a biggish part but let’s be honest the CCup game against Fev was the one we seemed least prepared for this season. I don’t think anyone can deny that they were more up for it on the day. And that is typical of the last forty years.
Still, it will change eventually, so why not on Sunday, fingers crossed.
PS
You've posted some absolute rubbish over the years but this up there with the worst. If you genuinely believe the 2008 Challenge Cup semi final will have any influence on the result this weekend then you've lost the plot!
You talk about recent history and being the best at relegation deciders, yet the most recent relegation decider we were involved in we lost! If we lose on Sunday it's because we haven't played well enough, nothing else.

That second half performance of Cas had the classic hallmarks of a clogger conditioned squad.

We saw some "interesting" performances last season, but I don't think we had one as bad as that tbf......

I've only watched the highlights but it all looked very familiar.

Agree, I never get the history thing, there's just nothing in it, it's just nonsense. New ownership, new coach, new players come and people still cling onto this idea that there is something in the fact certain clubs have this 'history' of winning or losing games.

| Regarding Cas not been in super league. Personally I want them to be there and in reality it will just be a straight swap us for London. Wouldn't you want to see our team playing them currently? Rather be in same league and beat them consistently if I'm honest.

I agree. The common denominator is always the supporters and they create a narrative that just isn't there.
The reality is, when a team has a run of wins like Cas did with us, they were just a better club at that time, in terms of money and recruitment.
Certain styles suit teams but that really only lasts a season.

Tbf, with injuries, players out of position and against Saints, who were desperate to bounce back, they were always going to get beaten, especially when the numbers were evened up.
However, they did lose their heads.
They will be happy that London are in SL this season.
KR seem to have picked up our better players over the past couple of seasons but Cas looked awful.

Is Clogger at Cas? Or was it just comparison of teams?

| Soooo seeing as that people keep asking and no one seems to know, are we behind the post’s tomorrow or just in the ‘terrace at the side?
If at terrace at the side we all need to be stood together to try get some sort of atmosphere going rather than being dotted about

Nobody needs to know. Certainly doesn’t bother me knowing before. There’s plenty of space to stand and you can use your eyes when you get there and stand where you please. Whether that be with a large group in the thick of it or on the edges if you please. You don’t get designated standing spots.

| It's game day !
How are we all feeling excited, nervous, giddy?
This must bring back lots of happy memories for some of our older posters. It has been along time since any of you woke up on a Sunday with a semi on
Can you remember the last time? 2008? 1979? or as far back as the 1960's??
For those of you unfortunate enough not to be able to get to the game BBC Radio Leeds have deigned to cover it, although it's only available on line I believe.
Hope you all have a great day regardless of the result !
Good Luck Trinity

| Well I've a few knots in my stomach this morning I'm not going to lie , today is a really big deal for the club and of course our long suffering fans , this is an opportunity to get that Wembley monkey off our backs and give ourselves the opportunity to win a trophy , the first that we hope will be many and it starts today with this big semi final .
Defeat today will be tough to take , let's do our bit on those terraces and try and ensure it doesn't happen .
It's going to be emotional .
