PAUL Cullen will leave dreams of cup glory to the fans as he focuses on finding a way to beat St Helens on Saturday.

Cullen has spoken in the past of his desire to lift the Challenge Cup with his hometown club, having been an 11-year-old supporter on the terraces at Wembley when Warrington last won the cup in 1974.

But as Saturday's fifth-round tie at Knowsley Road approaches, he is reluctant to look any further than the task of beating Saints.

Asked how much it would mean to bring cup success to the club, he said: "I'm sure it would mean an awful lot but as a coach, and certainly one in my position, getting involved in that kind of emotional debate is not one for me. That's for supporters.

"My job is trying to make sure our discipline is good enough at the weekend, our attacking options are going to be sufficient and we can defend our try line better than we did last time."

I agree with PC's take on the game - and his responsibilities as the coach. Let's hope he does his job, on all counts - and we can make it into the draw for next week's QF's.

I dont know..surely his passion to win this would rub off on the players & motivate them even more to succeed. If he isnt dreaming of cup glory / success then what do the players think!!!

I can't imagine there being a single player sat in that dressing room before kick off who would need someone else's passion or motivation to rub off on them. They want to beat Saints just as much as every Warrington fan wants them to, the key is not letting that desire to win detract from what they have to do to achieve it. COME ON LADS!! We know you can do it

No game against Saints is going to be easy - look at the Pies last weekend - but maybe this weekend - just maybe.
I will be listening to every minute on t'internet but I wish I could be there in the dilapidated dump formerly known as
Knowsley Road.
