    I am intrigued as well, I hope it has not involved learning to pole dance with some of the finest exponents of the art this side of Thailand.

    Bricking it now. Watched some highlights from the SL twitter feed and feel sick with nerves.

    My prediction is that this will be a week too far for Salford, they looked tired at the end last week and we will be fresh as daisies, when Thompson and Walmsley come on for their second stint, that is when it will hit them

    To be honest, I can't bear it. I hated being at Wembley because the choke felt inevitable after the first 10 minutes. There've been so many chokes now in big matches, I feel like we can't win if we're carrying the favourites tag, and we are tomorrow - no matter what the Salford romance story.

    I couldn't make it to Old Trafford this year, although after going to Wembley I'm not sure how hard I'd have tried if I could have! So I'll be watching the match on telly, through my fingers from behind the sofa. Unless we're three scores up, I'll probably need Valium until the final hooter.

    Don't let us down lads. Don't choke again. I can't stand it.

    I was pretty emphatic after the cup final that I expected us to get to the GF and blow it. Now my optimistic nature has got the better of me and somehow I feel like we’ll have learned our lesson.

    I think a lot will be revealed within the first 20-30 minutes. If we’re overplaying and dropping the ball at that stage then I’ll be watching with a sense of impending doom. If we’re looking after the ball then I reckon that’s when we’ll start getting on top.

    Feeling absolutely fine about the game really. Big game nerves should have hit by now but I’m very confident this group of players know that this is their time and this title is ours for the taking. It’s not arrogance or even dismissing Salford, it’s just a calmness that I think we’ll get the job done.

    I just hope we can hit the form we did against Wigan and are not getting a bit rusty. No panic football, and we should not have a problem. I think one thing in our favour this time is that all the neutrals will be against us, so we don;t have that weight on our shoulders.

    Can’t go to the final as I’m recovering from an operation on my Achilles which means I am going to have to put up with even more gush about Salford from the Sky team. I really hope we put 30 points on them to see what they say then! I suspect it will be closer- don’t really care if we win by 80th minute drop goal though. We were 16 points better than any team this season and we need to take that confidence into the game. They might have 4/5 possible game breakers, but we have 13.
    Please please please let this be our year COYS!

    I'm confident too. Saints just seemed so focus and ready in the build up and most of the talk has been about Salford, which will probably help us and motivate us more. We're ready for this. COYS!!

    Excited now! Can’t wait to get in to Manchester. Im quietly confident. I’m not really thinking about the result that much because i just want to enjoy the day more than anything else. Ive got a feeling the game itself will be a belter. Salford will test us but we will be ready.

    I haven't been as nervous about a game for a long time. The kick off here is 3.30am and I doubt I will sleep before it

    There won’t be a single neutral supporting us today so it’s up to us to provide it. I can fully understand it but I’m now sick of the Salford love-in this week. Let’s get out there and show them what we have done all season. Train at 11:55, drinks and game. A dry brisk day - we couldn’t have asked for more COYS!

    Hoping the dry day makes for a relatively quick game for this time of year. I think that will suit us, all things being equal
