[Durham Giant]

Can we get second ? : Sun Jul 19, 2009 9:49 pm  

or if not we may get to the cup final.

Saints 4 points ahead but if they lose to Leeds and we win our game that means it is two points. We still have to play them. The WEEK before the CC final they play Wigan. If they beat us in the semi they will put out a weakened team so Wigan could win that

By the time we play them it may be a case of winner gets second. Unless we get to CC final then they will go hell for leather to win the league.

Could be a win win situation for us..

To come from being beaten by Highfield to really challenging the for the major trophies is absolutely amazing.

Right then, Wembers and a top 2 finish...................... : Sun Jul 19, 2009 11:24 pm  

I remember wembley in 1991 when we were in the hotel having brekkers in our Fartown shirts and everyone in the hotel said we were stuck in a timewarp, as there were 12 of us in our claret and gold shirts. I sat there with Anthony Edwards at the brakfast table, whilst wearing his old shirt and never dreaming of this and look at us now.! we are on the brink of greatness, I am so happy now, thankyou, I feel ace tonight.....................

We'll be lucky to achieve anything like what we thought we would two weeks ago. It's amazing what a leveller an injury or seven can be. IMO the Challenge Cup is Huddersfield's to lose. Sounds daft with a semi against Saints to come but we are in bits. All the injuries are key players in key positions and even the backup in those positions is injured. If the Giants don't choke like they have in previous key cup games they have an amazing chance of winning it.

lets hope we do it, the once and future kings can maybe get it done..........

With Leeds and Saints still to play each other and the way the scousers injury list is going. I'll be supporting Leeds in that game and hoping Saints lose a few more games. It's quite possible we could finish above them

It seems such a long time since I was ballboy at Fartown in front of 2-300 fans watching us lose to teams like Runcorn and Trafford Borough. Well it was a long time lol but we've come a long way since those days.
