Whether we like it or not Rovers' name is on the trophy this year. Best to accept it and be pleased for friends/family members some of whom have never experienced winning a major trophy. :GROUPHUG: Everyone complains when it's the same teams getting silverware - you can't have it all ways.

Absolutely true.

I'll be disappointed if a plane with a celebratory banner attached isn't circling over the MKM at our next home game.

Would rather see Leigh win. And that would be the same regardless of who they are playing (except us). Would be some achievement for the newly promoted team to win silverware.
I also quite like Beaumont now. Used to think he was an idiot. Mainly based on when he'd get drunk and take to twitter. Having seen more of him this year and heard him on Sky/BBC, he comes across really well. Loves his club and loves the sport.

Part of me wants Rovers to win, just for some of my old mates, who did actually go during their wilderness years and who are genuine RL fans. That part of me though was removed when I lost the end of my little finger to a mallet tendon injury. For the way Lilley and latterly Hudgell have tried to do us over, Leigh, by 52 points, with Tom Briscoe getting 6 this time.

48 g 2 to Leigh.. 4 for Briscoe. Win/win. They don't get the pot but my red and poop mates can claim solace in an improvement on 2015!

Location: In the land of wishful thinking once more. Patiently waiting for our time to finally arrive.

Possibly, but there is also the alternative narrative, the one that says Leigh's name is 'on the cup'
The narrative that says that as the story of the season (newly promoted side upsetting the odds, successful club re-brand, positive air about them, a feeling of destiny calling) it is somehow written in the stars for Leigh to complete a remarkable twelve months by winning at Wembley?

Think it's a 50/50 call. It could be almost anything from a 30pt Leigh victory to a 30pt win for rovers, and all points in-between!
Having said all that, I'm going for rovers to prevail narrowly, around a 4/6pt win. I've also had a sneaky feeling about them since the start of the season, especially after Good Friday ( :( :( ), that they would be in one of the major finals, and so it has come to be!!!






I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011.

Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony.

I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar.

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.

A man who lives in hell can still aspire to heaven.

I’d be pleased for the genuine kr fans getting the monkey off their back.
I’ve seen folk suddenly wearing kr tops that I’ve never seen wear them before
However since experiencing the unpleasantness of kr since the 80’s and having met Lilley and Hudgell,
I sincerely hope leigh win comfortably.
