It's always your year, just like the last, one it's always your year. Nice one Saints icon_lol.gif

I was desperate for Saints to win last night for our own sake, but I really hope Cas make them pay for that now. If Saints finish second then I fully expect Wigan to win at Langtree Park next week, and we'd have nothing to fear going there the week after.

Thanks Gazwire we are top of the league and having a laugh. It must be our year.

Yep, you've won the LLS. It just shows how your expectation has dwindled if you're saying it's your year after winning the equivalent of the Calcutta cup (England v Scotland in RU). It's silverware yes, but it doesn't mean anything, as we were told a few years ago. When's the open top parade? Has McManus ordered 6 boxes of Lambrini to mark the 6 years since you last won anything?

It's always good to rib our near gypsy friends, but to be fair, it is without question the most sustained demanding and arguably the hardest silverware on offer in our domestic game.

It is, but the hubcap is a by-product in the quest to win the GF-the main objective. Winning the hubcap is the same as winning a trophy saying, 'Congratulations, you're leading the quest to win the GF 3/4 of the way through the season'. We may as well have trophy at the halfway point during May for the top of the table side. I happen to believe that winning the league should be the ultimate but I can't deny the fact that the play offs bring an exciting end to the season.

You think Saints have been anywhere near the best team in the league?

League position on the last day of the season may state otherwise, but this is side that has been criticised on numerous occasions for lacking fight, spirit, application, and skill.



We've seen them more than once getting absolutely embarrassed, the chairman, the coach, the senior players, all publicly bemoaning their soft underbelly.



To compare this Saints side to the one that handed us defeat after defeat for years would be a crime



I would struggle to find a worse team to win the LLS ever.



38 points wouldn't have got 4th place a few years back.....



Its been a terribly weak league whoever finishes "real" champions will most likely be a quickly forgotten team....



Just for two Michael Monaghan passes in the last games and we could have been League leaders.........that would have been a disgrace.....



I cant pick a winner this year probably Wigan If I'm pushed but again the worst championship winning Wigan side in History surely....??

I hate Saints almost as much as I hate Widnes, but the league table never lies, the top team is the best over the season.



I just think it's great for the game that 3 points cover the top 5 places.

well the amount of grand finals wev'e got to and lost is concerning....and the saints side of 2006 will never be bettered..(top team..man of steel..best coach...bbc team of the season..won challenge cup...world club challenge..etc..etc)...still you'll never see anything like this from wire..

i think its 5 times wev'e won the grand final..seeing as your such a know all ..remind me of how many times youv'e won a grand final then?????..dont bother because your answer would be embarassing for you!...so come back when youve just won 1 grand final ...your an embarassment to all the genuine wire fans on here..

Any of the genuinely great sides of the last twenty years - Wigan pre-Super League, then Saints, Bradford and Leeds at their respective multi title winning peaks - are far better than any of the teams in SL right now. There has been so many teams so close together at the top because the league as a whole has got weaker.



Our best team of recent years was our 2011 team that had King, Morley, Monaghan, Briers, Westwood and Hodgson all outstanding. We only won the LLS though and ultimately blew it in the end. If we somehow end up winning the Grand Final this year then history will record 2014 as a more successful year than 2011 - and I will definitely celebrate it as such personally - but we all know this team isn't as good as that team was, and going to matches over the course of the year has been nowhere near as enjoyable.



I personally think Wigan are the best of a mediocre bunch and will end up winning at Old Trafford, but this side won't be heralded as one of their greats if they do, and neither will the Saints or Leeds sides if either of them pull it off either. The only side who have overachieved all year and will genuinely be regarded as their club's greatest ever if they do it is Cas, but even they bottled the LLS when it was there for the taking.



The consolation I take from all this is that it does still give Wires an outside chance, because we are capable of winning four games against these teams if we get a bit of the rub of the green over the next few weeks.

well it doesn't look likely we will make it this year..but if you get there along with baron greenbacks pie-eaters..i hope it is your year and you win it.....one reason being youv'e never won it so i don't begrudge the wire fans one bit..the other being..some wigan fans are going round spouting like theyv'e won it already.. i really hope toadfaces pieaters get knocked out..good luck!

Surely the best team never to win the Superleague. So many records broken that year and nothing to show for it.



Top of the league DOES matter, you finish top, you've been better than everybody else. It mattered when we won it, and judging by the the reaction of some of the Saints fans on the telly during the Hudds game it clearly mattered to them too. Well done to them (in the end!)



This "it's always your year" football chant is annoying. We sing it at Saints, they sing it at us, Whiffness sing it at us and Saints...it's s**t, just stop it.
