Wembley Challenge Cup Final 2010 - The build up

[hindle xiii]

Has to be Leeds for me, just to see if NE still thinks it is the mickey mouse cup when they win it.

You just want Kath to get laid.

Leeds for me, Wendels constant swamping of his overhyped Warrington ###### he posts daily has nothing to do with my decision though.

I understand, tbh.

Wezza is on "ignore" here in Duckville.

His heart's probably in the right place, his brain possibly isn't....

Is that when you tackle a bloke instead of a bird, the "chap" shot.

Bailey - a chap shot. That defo was a typo! Also, what did you do the first time you quoted my post!! You jumbled the sentences up!!! Haha!!

[fieldofclothofgold]

Good lads, we didn't fight the war of the roses for nothing.

yes ,but i'm sure trojan will correct me if i'm wrong ,but i think our area fought on the lancastrian side ,the southerners were the yorkist's mainly

Even though it was a incredibly cheap looking screenshot after the programme had finished, it did say live on BBC and BBC HD.

Good stuff.

I always go for the underdog in situations like this, so that'll be Warrington. Fairly disappointing underdogs today though.

Surely league position indicates Leeds are the underdogs

I'd have thought so too. Especially as Warrington are the current CC holders.

[NEIL FOX IS GOD]

Warrington for me hell will freeze over before i support Leeds against anybody

Leeds will be too good for Wire I fear

[HappyDave]

I'm going to try to remain neutral but I think if they play the form the were in today Wires will be to good for Leeds & win by 4-6 points. Although I don't think either team will get over 30 points.

Guess you'll be cutting your holiday short

I owe you a pint

Wembley Wembley the Famous Warrington are off to Wembley

I started this for laugh

NOW GET YOUR TICKETS

======================

[Wendall]

Following Warrington's victory in the Carnegie Challenge Cup semi final, it has been confirmed at that the Rhinos will wear our away kit at Wembley because of the clash of colours between the two clubs.

Leeds wore this kit last month at the HJ Stadium and there was still a colour clash with Wire's primrose and blue!!!!!

Wire should have been made to play in red and green, it would make it a lot easier on TV.

[Wendall]

These are a bit too close for my liking.

Don't get me wrong, Ray French talks a lot of sense about RL. He really does. His weekly column is one of the few good things in the League Weekly. Unfortunately, as a commentator his best days are well behind him. His player recognition is at times embarrassing. If he were commentating on a more high profile sport, he would've gone years ago.

Just a point about the Leeds away kit. Do away kits have to be a different colour from the main kit, because the Leeds one seems to be just a variation of the normal colours. As shown with the clash with Warrington's kit, it's no real alternative to the home one.

I thought that, as an away kit this proves it doesn't work. Although they are used differently nowadays, they are still meant to be used when a colour clash occurs. However their kit still results in just as bad a colour clash.

If the RFL had any sense they would switch this right away, to Wire's genuine away kit.

Agreed, but should Leeds have had a better alternative kit? I seem to remember Bradford made a kit (yellow?) especially for the 1997 CC final when their kit clashed with that of St Helens.

Not to worry - Dave Woods is commentating on the final, as he did last year. Ray has "retired" from doing the finals and is the BBC's second choice commentator and Dave Woods is first.
