You could find fault with most clubs' Cup record. Before Leeds won back to back Cups in 2014/15 they'd only won it once in thirty five years. Bradford have only won the Cup five times, Huddersfield despite a rich history only six times and not for over sixty years. Widnes have won it seven times but four of those came in a ten year period between 1975 and 1984.
Bragging about a Challenge Cup winning record would be like naming a club bar after a solitary Cup win.

You can debate all day with the bin dippers, it must be horrible for them to see us striving forward, don't know why they get jealous, the first year of the 5 year plan is going well.

Going well the clapping seals going nuts on twitter as they sign all the players that got them relegated, two players from Bradford who ended up in the 3rd division and a 31 year old prop from Wakey.
Weirdly some of there fans are too happy about Abdul, who will be there best signing for next year.
They also have one of the best coaches in the world (you have to wonder who he isn't coaching in the NRL, if he is that good)

... based on your last 100 posts or so, the last thing I would describe you as is a "rugby fan".
Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?
