I believe it will be so....it is pre-ordained.
Leeds will win it again.

I don't do the lottery so I can't help out there unfortunately
Had a couple of cheeky £5 bets (I don't bet large, only for fun)... £5 on Leeds with the handicap (-12) at 6/5... that was practically a no-brainer value-for-money bet IMO. When I heard Tomkins was out, I couldn't resist another £5 on Leeds to win outright at 17/5. Also took a tenner off a Wigan mod with a wager so a good night all round
5TH IS BEAUTIFUL - so much easier from there than finishing 4th
Leeds worked that out a long time ago to their advantage.
I look forward to Leeds continuing to exploit and mock this ridiculous play-off system to their advantage.
They can stick their season tickets up their @rse however.

Nope, I'm quite sure that I said Leeds would beat the "whipping boy SL rabble" of Wakefield and Catalan. I'm also quite sure I said the Wigan game would be "tricky" as it indeed turned out to be, but not impossible. I'm also pretty sure that I mapped out Leeds easy route to the Grand Final from that beautifully crafted position of 5th with absolute precision and accuracy before the completion of Round 27.
Quote ="Juan Cornetto"I am quite sure GH will be happy to forfeit some (discounted) season ticket doubters for his share in the two new pots of "Finals" gold produced by his Champion side and Champion coach!'"
Nope, I doubt he'll do that. In fact I know he won't do that. What I do know is Leeds are not providing value for money to season ticket holders with all the dross they serve up during the regular season and anyone who purchases one are being short-changed and taken for a mug. It is in GH's best interests to recognise this because season ticket sales will eventually suffer as a consequence. The team only turning up for the final few weeks of the season will not alter that.

Any loss in season ticket sales would be more than offset by increased tv revenue and merchandise sales arising from winning stuff. Fans overestimate their own importance.

I don't disagree with any of that to be honest. Leeds play the system like a piano, educated by previous failures (03, 05 and 06).

This is the supreme irony. The attendances for the games which matter... they are abysmal compared to the season ticket based attendances for all the dross during the regular rounds. What was the attendance at the JJB last night? I've seen 8K quoted... surely that's not accurate?

| The attendance was 12,344. Embarrassing turn-out all round but particularly from Wigan's supposed 18th man.
Getting their Grand Final tickets early must have had an effect.

Not good but hardly surprising when compared to other Wigan V Leeds play-off attendances.
2012 - 12,344
2010 - 12,117
2002 - 13,157
1998 - 12,941
Leeds V Wigan play-off attendances are better.
2010 - 13,692
2008 - 13,212
2007 - 16,112
2004 - 20,119
2003 - 17,263
Quote ="tvoc"Getting their Grand Final tickets early must have had an effect.'"
I've always got mine very early. It's never been determined by whether Leeds make the GF or not. I'm not attending the GF this year however. Made that decision at the start of the season along with non-attendance for the meaningless regular season dross. The only exceptions have been the WCC, Bradford away (due to the financial circumstances) and Catalan at home (free ticket and an excuse to meet up with a few people). My patronage towards the game shall remain practically non-existent until credibility and meaningful games are restored.

| Shambolic that the Sky Sports website should be using a figure that doesn't correspond with the live Sky Sports broadcast on the night - but sadly all too predictable. I've no idea which was closest to the true figure but it looked sp enough to be a sub five figure attendance.

Yep! You made a bet on Leeds winning meaning you knew deep down the Champions would beat your "whipping boy rabble" from Wigan. Did you put you money where your mouth is and put a bet on you favoured Wigan side?
Yep! If you had asked GH before the season would he accept say a £100K loss on season ticket sales in exchange for £500-700K earnings from 2 Cup finals I think I know the answer.
Rather like last year and for the same reasons shouldn't you now be choosing your new ID?
