Leeds over Wigun every time for me it's a Yorkshire thing, only time I'd be happy nay ecstatic really with a Wigun win is if they were paggering Huddersfield or Widnes.

Re: Last years GF : Sat May 28, 2016 3:16 pm  

Nooo not Leeds, I'm old school, never got over the sight of the likes of Pitchford, Ward, Dickinson smirking like naughty schoolboys as they did us over yet again, with the help of the referee of course. Nor can I forgive them dangling the poison carrot in front of any decent player we ever produced back then, Toppo included (bless him, he never did take up the offer).
Disclaimer...the above may be total fiction but that's how it felt at the time.

Would never want Leeds to win anything. I've never known in my sixty years of watching rugby league a club as arrogant as Leeds RLFC. They believe that they have a devine right to be at the top and win everything.
I always remember their sycophantic cronies at Radio Leeds once announcing that " It was a very sad day for Yorkshire" because Leeds had lost a particularly important match. I thought " No it isn't a sad day for Yorkshire", because nearly everyone outside Leeds can't b****y stand them!!
I've no love for Wigan either, but I think Leeds being in the league position that they are in currently is the funniest thing since Alan Partridge!!!

Leeds over Wigan for me, but it's like choosing between boiled sprouts or steamed sprouts - same but different.

Leeds for me. Aside from the fact that I would always prefer a Yorkshire team to win I wanted Brian Mac to succeed over Winging Wane, Brian is a Wakey lad and he has always had a soft spot for our club.
I know i am probably in the minority with this but when Cas play the likes of Saints, Widnes & Wigan I always want Cas to win. Again it's the Yorkshire thing and I admire the work that Powell has done with the team and their style of play.

Totally agree

Re: Last years GF : Sun May 29, 2016 9:02 am  

I wanted both teams to lose.

Recently it's Betts and their fans, but it all stems from when they failed to get into super league from the start of that 3 year license, all the cr@p we took from sky.
As for the Huddersfield Eagles it didn't just stop with nicking their club, they carried on with nicking our players as well, they either signed an aussie or a Wakey player.

Leeds to lose for me, if not just for that boring chant of theirs
