not a bad feeling at all

Good luck in the final

Thanks. Nice to see some reciprocation of our wholehearted support of you guys last year.

I think our backs edge yours and your forwards edge ours.

1v 2

Both games won by yourselves but both game extremely tight.

I think the bookies have only got us as favourites due to experience, that's the only thing i can think of.

Both well supported, both have a vociferous support, shaping up to be a decent final.

Let's just pray that the dickh3ad element we both possess stay away.

Game on.

Let Warrington worry about us. Played them twice beat them twice. Our pack is better than theirs, so they are the team that has to have their pack put in their best defensive performance. We finished top after 23 games for a reason. Defensively Wakefield were pretty abysmal today, we won't be. Let's wait until the final and which team has the most of their 1st 17 fit on the day. As for Sandow I've not seen anything in the 2 matches we've played against them to have me shaking in my boots

Cheers. Shame about the comment

I'd be surprised if we lose to be honest. Depending on players available obviously. If our main pack is out it's miles better than wire. Obviously surprises happen but I'd expect us to pull away in the last quarter. Wigan are a far better team at mucking in than wire ever will be. Hull by 10 to 16 points .

We've only lost 1 of 11 games against the other top 5 clubs this season so we definitely have it in us to win but we have to be at our best

My comment kinda relates to the last sentence in my post. As a Wire fan you can understand why i never want Wigan to win, same as you guys with KR.
But unfortunately I've seen a lot of trouble and experienced in personally with FC...Now before anyone jumps down my throat I'm not saying all Wire fans are angels but as a Wire fan I'm never going to truly feel the hate of the hardcore element of my own fans.
I used to be a little too harsh on FC 99% on here are good folks, 95% of your fans are good people as 95% of Wire fans are good people, but as you can understand with all the experience I've had it shapes your thoughts on a team and it's hard to let them go.

I have a very real fear there will be kicking off and that saddens me a little.
Now again i understand the very same sentiment will run the other way with some of you guys, ran into trouble with a nobhead Wire fan and you now have a lesser opinion because of it.
I'm trying to be more adult about, i came to the FC for the first time in years this season as i realise the majority are good honest people and i had to stop being silly.
But I'm sure everyone has this, if you had to make a league table of 11 teams, 1 being who you disliked the most and 11 the least I'm sure FC majority would have KR at 1...possibly Hudds or someone else at 11.

Mine is Wigan and unfortunately and hopefully it changes in the future it was FC at 2.
I don't want to take this away from the discussion, i don't want to get into a tit-for-tat and I'm fully aware some people hate us too. But I'm just putting it out why I wrote my comment, i don't 'hate' anyone in the truest sense of the word, more 'don't like to see win'.

Like i said i really hope both idiotic elements stay away, i want it eradicated from the game, i want healthy banter and i want to go to FC and for FC to come to Wire both knowing it will be a good family friendly environment.

The actual game i am genuinely looking forward to, the genuine FC fans I'm looking forward to mixing with and hopefully whoever loses takes it with grace as i always have.

My peace, and from now on...even though I stopped a while back I'll lay off with the labelling of good honest decent supporters in the same light as the minority scum bags.
i leave in peace, have fun, safe journey and leave the field with the same 17 in healthy condition, good luck in the 8's.

Yes to both ....
