Excellent simply can't wait for this, it's going to be a classic simple as.....
I can see us winning this one, but it's rugby league anything can happen, great spectical for the game in general.

So? We've handled that kind of pressure with Leeds in knock-out comps so why should we feel any greater pressure this time around, when fans' expectations are much, much lower? Or did you mean YOU will be under pressure?

Under normal circumstances we would and we have. Last time out, your turnout was naff by your previous standards ... and that was after you had actually beaten us! (Magic weekend) With this being a playoff though and with us not playing so well for much of the season, we may not turn up in our usual numbers. But, it is Wigan, so we just might ...

Our Chairman is not an idiot. He will not have counted on us getting anywhere to pay the wages! The wages will have already been accounted for. As for us reaching the Grand Final each year, after last year's experience and after this year's performances, expectations from fans are low. Hopes are always high, but expectations low. I hope we don't lose but this season we have been all over the place performance-wise so a loss would not be a shock. I'm quite sure it wouldn't be a shock to our Chairman, either.

Who cares, who brings what... As long as its sold out and its an amazing game..
I am away for the weekend in a caravan in Bamborough and have just been on the internet to check how far it is(thought I might be able to pop back for it) but a 9hr round trip is a bit much... so its Sky for me
Will be at the Grand Final though, WHEN we get there
