Legend

Chuffed for him and well done Wire. By far the better side throughout and would have been an injustice if you'd lost

From a Leeds fan who knows what its like!

Superb Tony, well done to you and all the coaching staff........

Never liked Smith when he coached Huddersfield against Leigh in NL1 (personal) but have to admit he is one of the top coaches in the world, if not the best . WELL DONE WIRE.

he is a magnificent coach

He's done wonders, brilliant coach!

Master stroke bringing him in.

He had a winning gameplan against Wigan in the Semi, and his gameplan worked today. My only issue is why not come up with a gameplan every week, like against Wakefield?

When you have such a great chance of silverware after so many years, I can imagine its easy for the players to have switched off from the semi up until today

Rome wasn't built in a day!

Top man is Tony Smith Im happy for him to get his hands on the cup at last

Great coach and today proved that. Hudds were out on their feet in the last 10 mins. All credit to Tony Smith & the players. A day we have waited so long for. Well done wire

Before the match I said here that Hudds were favourites but it depended on whether TS could come up with the tactics to overcome Hudds.

Well he did and we are deserved winners of the CC.

Well done Tony.
Well done lads.

Thank you Tony.

You had everything planned out to the dot.

the man is god...nuff said

I totally agree with what you say, it just goes to prove how good he is, joining the team and winning the challenge cup in not even your first full season! What a man!

Sir Tony in my book

the man's a genius with the way he's transformed the mentality of these players.

Thanks Che Tony but the revolution is not yet complete.

I agree and think the Man himself would be first to say so.

Said it before, but think that he saw a great opportunity to get some silverware in the CC, which he would view as a springboard to creating a further winning mentality.

We now have silverware in the cabinet, and I would bet he now has his sights on next year and beyond to consolidate our league position, and pushing us on to be real contenders.

Yesterday just could have been the start of something very good for us Wire fans.


In Tony Smith We Trust !!!!!!

he got his subs, absolutely SPOT ON yesterday, game plan was perfect, after that chip kick for riley early on, that ed the compacted giants defence for the rest of the game.


Tony, i think i love you!

In around 5 months Tony has turned a group of individuals into a real team who really work hard for each other, congratulate when good work has been done or pick each other up when a mistake has been made.

Well done to Simon Moran and the rest of the board for getting Tony back into club coaching.

top drawer coach
lets hope tis is the start of things to come

The bloke is an absolute genius. To win silverware in his first season at Wire after all of these years that warrington have under-achieved is awesome.

I dont for one minute think that there is not a long way to go, BUT with Smith in charge i believe that we will get to be the big club that warrington should have been for many years but for various reasons have not been.

I know it's said a lot but now more than ever - in Smith we trust

Viva Tony.

What a bloke.

Cullen tried 5 or 6 years to do it, and failed.

Smithy tried 4 months, and suceeded.

What a coach!!!

Will be interesting to watch Boots n All this week. To see what is said by the pundits regarding our victory. Hope they give us the credit we deserve.

Be fair to cullen he made alot of this team saving us and then gradually improveing us and tony had given improved the desire, tactics and attitude of the players

But still what a coach

Coming out of the ground, I heard somebody say "They wouldn't have won that gane under Cullen"

I replied, "They wouldn't have won that game under Noble, Brown, Potter or any other 'good' coach kicking around in SL."

I meant it too, his preperation, his thought processes, he's a massively talented coach, best bit of business done by SJM by a mile.
