So, moving on next up is Celtic. How do you think we will do??

Will we feel sorry for ourselves and allow Celtic to run the show? Or will we bounce back and give them a good thrashing??

I am hoping for the latter - Come on lads you can do it!

We'll do them over and I think we will put Wigan to the sword too. We need to dust ourselves down, not get too down about the cup final and remember we have so much to play for. Playoffs here we come!!!

I hope we open a family sized can of whoopass.

It's the perfect game for us really, their squad has been torn apart....there is no interest from the locals and I doubt anyone can really be bothered now, they have nothing to play for....even pride went out the window a few months back!

That's the spirit boys and girls. I don't think Saints players will be sat thinking their season is over because they lost the CC semi to the losing fanalists. They will be trying to get back to the top, just like we need to climb back into third. We haven't become a poor side because we lost the final. Only Wire are the winners this week, every other club in the same boat as us. Except hopefully our club are financially a lot better off as a result of Wembley. Which will bode well for the future.

Come on Giants, you were awesome before the final, that's why we are 4th in the league. Time to get over Saturday and continue the march toward Old Trafford.

I can see us tearing them apart. Proving that the Final performance was just a blip.
Hopefully...

Backlash time i hope.
i think Browny and Baloo will have a big job this week though trying to get them in the right mindset after Saturday.
but we still got lots to play for so hopefully the players will get back on track and try to put things right again !

hopefully a nice steady win to get us back on track for the grand final

I am sure our lads can get back on track and push on for the play offs. We have had a great season and its far from over yet.

This is the "business" end of the season as they like to call it...lets show everyone we mean business starting with a win at Celtic.

COME ON YOU GIANTS!!

Absolutly, easiest game we could hope for to get us back on track for the playoffs

two more wins in the SL will do us nicely for a charge to the playoffs.

hopefully its going to be a kicking.
Who's going down to celtic....
Iam going with two others.

sorry mate but thats a disgraceful comment. our players have always shown an enormous amount of pride and however small our group of supporters are we are passionately proud of them every time they take the field. See the last ditch tackle by our full back in the leeds game when we were 50 odd points down for pride!
As for lack of interest its bit ironic being lectured on that from a club that has averaged 600 in the past in the top flight.

Our support in the past was awful and for the size of the town and number of inhabitants it's hardly anything worth shouting about even now. I am very often dissapointed by the general lack of interest in the area and lack of vocal support at matches.

However, you guys getting a place in Super League after being established for all of five minutes was a total disgrace, and events from within your organisation this season have proved beyond doubt that you were nowhere near being ready for Super League. To all the Welsh Rugby league fans out there, I applaud you and hope you carry on but I will never accept Celtic as a proper team or a team that deserved it's place in the elite competition. At least Catalans are in the Rugby League heartland of France and have contributed much to the comp aswell as the Challenge Cup....and what fan doesn't enjoy a weekend in the south of France? Sorry mate but that's how I feel and no offence was intended to you the fans more to the creation of a nonsense that is Celtic Crusaders.

Keep on topic, the pros and cons of Celtic are not this topic, neither is the borderline insults going on.

Fair enough.

think i'll be going down with the usual 150 -200 away supporters
will be looking to have a good day with the welsh lot if their visit at easter is owt to go by

If you can get yourselves down there, this is the time when the lads really need our support, they were and are really down and we need to lift them.

We have a Super League to win, come on you giants.

49 of us going on big stewarts trip , suppose its down to money wether a lot go or not , some will be broke after wembley

We have averaged 600 when we have been the bottom of the whole Rugby League not the top flight, we couldnt even dream of the top flight when we had those crowds

Are the club laying on coaches for this one?

bottom of the single division or bottom of two divisions? wow. that explains an average of 600. Tell you what you can use your superleague average of 3,392 in 2000 after 105 years to look down your nose on our level of interest. How does that work for you?
Im just disappointed that a club which has led the way in generating interest from a very low base, something other fans are always attacking you lot for, should be telling us that we have no pride and no interest.

Listen I started that off so I'll take the flak for the comment. Look I apologise for offending you, I didn't mean to. I still feel you are a nonsense club but there we go.

wow living up to your avatar i see. And how do you think catalans had an heartland to be in in the first place? Did it fall from the heavens or was it created by the hard work of pioneers, in a 'shock horror' rugby union area. You cant applaud welsh efforts in one breath and then tell us we are not a 'proper' club in another, this is our team and all your salivating over temporary problems wont alter that fact. Welsh rugby league people are putting their heart and soul into this club. You dont own the game and its not up to you to tell anyone whether they are a 'proper' team what ever the hell is supposed to be anyway.

Listen, let's just drop this because it ain't getting anywhere. You do your thing and I'll do mine.

Both of you stop it.

This is not a thread about expansion. Stay on topic or i wil lock it.

Anwars views are his own and do not reflect all Giants fans.

I fully support Celtic and that is why i will be travelling down on saturday.

You can buy me a pint then.
