League or CC?
I am not sure, Gentle says we've got enough points and the Wigan and L**ds games don't matter, I am not so sure, I'd love a Wembley trip, but I'd love a great SL table position as well.
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.........

In an ideal world we'll win both this year!
But, I'd love for FC to win at Wembley, so I'd say the Cup this year and the League next year.

The most important thing is that we continue to improve.
Cup run would be nice this year but in fairness with the way our club is being run now i'm convinced we'll have some silverware in the next couple of years
exciting times ahead

Another plus with a good cup run is the money it will bring into the club.

One no more important than the other. We enter 2 comps every year and should be aiming to win both.

I don't think this season we will have much success in either but I am just happy with the teams continual improvement.
For me a good tilt at the play offs is all I'd like and what I think is achievable. With players returning and our improved style of play and self belief we might just might be able to have an impact come the business end of the season.

Like mentioned the most important thing is consistency and continuous improvement...
However personally I would like to put the ghost to bed, so for me Challenge Cup.

All men are created equal, some work harder in preseason.

Hope you're joking, if not you're an idiot.
As said, both are important - Gentle's comments suggest to me that a) He's taking the pressure off the Leeds/Wigan and b) He recognises, obviously, that tomorrow's game is more important than the Leeds/Wigan game as a lose tomorrow is the end of the cup for a season.

I was joking yeah, but I would like to see our record against Leeds improve, with Gentle though I think our record against everyone will improve |

Think Adam would appreciate a good cup run for the coffers, as the crowds are slower than anticipated to return.
No reason we shouldn't have both. In the short term we need to win tomorrow at all costs - lots of time left to secure a decent play-off position in the league.

The two competitions are equally important, however the Challenge Cup undoubtedly brings greater financial rewards and a higher profile and we need that monkey off our back. Personally I'd be happy to finish in the bottom three this season and win at Wembley.
We are not quite ready to seriously challenge for the Grand Final so this year the Cup holds our best chance of silverware. It's a massive task tomorrow but should we win there's a good chance of drawing a Championship club in the fifth round.
