Watched every second of it, awful stuff.

Obviously, this season has gone. Start building for next season already.

Great game wakey v leeds . Wakey forwards dominant for 25mins of the first half unfortunately for them blowing out their arse's in the second.
Both teams were good advert for super league.

Leeds title to lose now. 😁

In our household the rugby equivalent of watching Chelsea vs Scum. Never going to be on our telly. That’s said, would have loved a Wakey win. ☹️

I was born and bred in Wakey pjm....so Wakey is my rugby team.
I lived 9 miles from Leeds and 3 miles from the centre of Wakey. Leeds Utd were my closest football club and I instantly fell head over heels in love with Elland Road at the first visit. That was in 1970.

I was born in Headlingley, the heartland of cricket & rugby, so I naturally support the Rhinos, Yorkshire CCC & Leeds United of course!

NEVER! I grew up in Castleford, 12 miles from Leeds, so I’m a Tigers fan, saw my first game aged 4. I saw my first Leeds game aged 12 when I was old enough to travel on my own, Leeds United were my local team. You’ll get United fans who support Bradford, Featherstone, Halifax, Dewsbury … the list goes on. I truly hate when the Whinos sing MOT, it cuts to the quick.

I used to walk or run to Headingley & Elland Road.

I did have a bicycle (they were heavy back in the 60s). We used to set-off early on a morning to bike from Armley to Otley, onto Ilkley Moor, terminating at Bolton Abbey.

The Otley Chevin was testing on our return home, you had to pace yourself to make it to the top without stopping.

Those were the days!

I used to use the Otley Chevin to get to work in Guiseley, I wouldn’t fancy going over there on a bike in wind and rain 😳
