Flaming hell Sally ... I get frustrated too ... but I don't moan for ever and ever. I have been involved in rugby for a long time and I have think seeing the negative virtually all the time is not good. This forum is a bit of a joke. Same old negs going on and on and on ... we've heard it and we understand your feelings.


Go on, give us all some positives, for balance.

I dont think there is a single fan looking at next season with any optimism.... Most are expecting a hard opening with performances like the back end of the season, followed by outrage and a sacking.


With this being Warrington though, more likely to be:
- bad start, coach under pressure
- team rallies mid season, looks to be on track
- falls away in the back end of the season

Club management verdict on the season: We must do better in 2021 on the field but off the field wolfie was a great success

I'm positive about the Challenge Cup win last season. I think we've underrated it.

If someone asked what's the most significant big game performance you've ever seen from a Wire team, taking in to consideration the occasion, the opposition, outperforming expectations, what would it be?

I'm struggling to think of any game to put ahead of 2019 CC final against Saints at Wembley. :THINK:

Keep off the forum and stick to the barmy army facebook group then. You can join in with all the happy clappers and the middle aged mums who think we should have a 'Mrs. Wolfie' mascot and that is doesn't matter who wins, as long as everyone has fun...

I'll stick to this forum, where serious people can talk about serious faults that we can see in the team or the game. It's not about loving to moan, it's called observation and independent thought. Not blindly going along with whatever the club releases.

Maybe 1986 Premiership against Halifax. Halifax were the team to beat at that time with a good side. I think they won the league and CC in successive seasons. We had just appointed Tony Barrow and were on a bit of a roll having beaten Widnes and Wigan. We absolutely mullered them at Elland Road against all expectations.

You could watch that game over and over and be amazed at Warrington's performance both in the forwards and backs. 75m try from Johnno (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xj3Xm7lCJhI) and even 2 trys from Boyd.

That was before my time but I thought that would be the most likely suggestion too. I think you can put the Challenge Cup ahead of the Premiership as a more significant trophy, but even so, if you have to go back 33 years to find an equivalent big game performance to the 2019 CC Final, it says something about how significant that game was.

It does feel a bit like the 'forgotten trophy'. It's a bit puzzling that we're not dining out on the warm glow of that Wembley win all through this off season.
