If you truely have supported HKR since '77 why do you see fit to come on here and gloat about Salford being poop? Because don't get me wrong I applaud the club, you have done a great job in the last few years. But until then, over recent years you have been nothing. You have been a small side with very little success and little if anything to chear about, you will have watched Hull FC reach; Grand Finals and Challenge Cup Finals whilst poor old KR were a nothing side sat in the lower leagues, surely you more than anyone must know how we feel, yet you see the need to come on here and gloat about our current state of affairs...?
You are correct in your summary of rovers recent past with regards to not having a great deal of success between, probably the early ninetees up untill 2006 when a new and dynamic board of directors came to the fold.
But to call us small is rather silly, we have never been a small club at least not in the broader sense of the word,.
We had a great deal of succes during the seventies and eighties winning every trophy in the game, including back to back championships and the treble, a feat only achieved by three other clubs in rugby league, we now have a board of directors who are Kr fanatics and are going in the right direction in taking us back to those trophhy winning ways.
As for Salford you need to get things sorted out at the top, possibly appointing new owners who have a greater desire to take Salford forward, otherwise you will always get critisism from other clubs fans ,particularly fans of teams like Widnes who may feel they should be in super league on merit, rather than yourselves.
