cost benefit analysis of inconveniencing your loyal fanbase against modernising your sales channel options. Easier for a sporting club than a real business I guess but pretty shortsighted IMO but I'm sure the beans on one side add up to more than the other

wasn't to disappointed over loss,maybe too many errors.better side won.we have a tremendous record winning semis.5 on the bounce,law of averages say you will lose one eventually.

I was genuinely surprised at how we (Wire) played on Saturday given our truly abysmal showings the previous 2 weeks.
Price has obviously drilled into them the game plan - kicking game, strong chase and big efforts to restrict meters in tackles 1 to 3 based on line speed and numbers, BUT fair play to Hull. You took chances when they came and we never really looked like we'd shake you off until the final try. Ratu showed great speed and stood up our defence like a kipper, and the Kelly kick was top draw.
Radford pointed out the deficiency - high kick defence - and I can well understand his frustration if you'd been working on it all week.

I counted the wrong calls by the ref and I saw 4 that went against you - including the Shawl break which I didn't think was a knock on. There was 1 against us. I've counted worse but even so...

Onward and upward.

I actually am In 2 mins about getting to Wembley. Depends which Wire turn up.
We could get totally stuffed.
You may yet have the last laugh.

Good luck in the final.

Have Saints ever played Wire in a Challenge cup final, I don’t recall.
