Fully agreed, and that's why it's so painful for me.

The people complaining about trouble on Saturday night would have had kittens if they were at the '89 semi.

Family game though innit.



Not true fans.

Absolutely this AL2. I don't know when this 'hangover' is going to wear off, no sign of it abating just yet

Still very gutted but then again I'm only 15 and have been very selfish towards the team this past few day since they have lost. My Dad says that I am too harsh on them and I haven't seen the really bad teams.



I did watch them when they were crap about 10 years ao but didn't really understand what was going on.



I am 100% confident that we will win the the Grand Final next year. mark my word. Each year we keep going one better in the play-offs.

Also, how anyone can say that this Warrington team will not do well next year should be shot a dawn. The team they have there will not go the next 2-3 years without winning a grand final. The oldies will play 10-15 games next year so there will be no problems with the younger ones sliding in for the oldies to be fit and healthy for the business end. TS knows exactly what he is doing and if we think a new signing is needed then he will too.

past the stage of sulking cos the wire have lost an important game..good luck to leeds it was well deserved..one for those who need cheering up just remember what weve won since ts arrival

TS has done great things here but after winning 3 CC the only thing we really want now is the big one

You are so lucky, you are growing up with the best team Warrington has produced in decades. Like my 2 teenage sons, they have seen us win at Wembley 3 times, win a league leaders shield and go to a Grand Final in a matter of 4 years. Many of the older supporters have waited a long time to see a succesful team and during that time have watched some poor Warrington sides, although we have had good teams and been graced with some super players.



Just be patient

too bloody right that lydon drop goal,memories dont think youll ever see a sweetly hit drop goal again

Agreed, sam

I've done precious little sulking, since THAT Wire v Wigan game, decided by THAT decision by Smith. Cost me about £400. Took us at 50/1, preseason.

Leeds played us at our own (expansive) game, and they deserved their win. Maguire, Burrow and Sinfield tore us a new one.

3 CCs in 4 attempts

The hub-cap

Our record in the play-offs is improving

We're getting players "mentioned in dispatches" for the MoS awards

Our lot is quite a happy one.

Gutted? Not a chance

Rewind to early 2009. The Cullen era had ended, Lowes was in charge and appeared to be taking the team nowhere fast.



If somebody then had offered me three Challenge Cup wins, finishing top of the league once and playing some of the most attractive rugby ever seen in SL, but with the price of making Old Trafford and losing all within the next 3½ years I would have ripped their arm out at the socket as I'm sure most (if not all) Wire fans would.



Disappointed rather than gutted about the result, but looking at the amazing ride we've been on in such a short space of time still leaves me buzzing.

Spot on. And if people are still not sure, think about the supporters of clubs like Bradford, Hull KR, Salford, Cas. Plus Saints not winning anything again, and Wigan only getting the LLS. We have had a fantastic year and a brilliant run for the past few seasons. I just hope we can continue next year.

Yeah, all of this is how I'm feeling. I was disappointed that we lost, but I was surprised by how quickly I accepted it and wasn't gutted, because as well as not being the best side on the day I was happy that we had come this far. I sometimes worry that we've been spoiled by this recent form, because I don't want us to turn into a club that moans about how unfair it is that we didn't win everything, given the last decade and a half (that I've been following us since a kid) in which we've won nothing until now. I worried that I would never see a successful Wire side like the ones I heard about from years gone by, and now I have I want to enjoy it while it lasts.



Of course we should try and win as much as possible, but if we manage not to win anything next season we're still vastly better off than we were 10 years ago, and better off than many other clubs in the league - is that really something to complain about?
