nope, our reporter left so we only see fc articles

its refreshing to see so many articles about a team who sat 11th and finished on 6 points compared to a team who saw a grand final

how many articles can dan do at 6am with the title 'carty has laid out a challenge' snooze fest

Bigger club. Start winning trophies and you may get more coverage.

They got a new reporter in who somehow managed the incredible accomplishment of actually been worse than Appleyard. However I barely see his articles anymore. Everything Rovers related seems to come from Shaw and his ridiculous bias (but no suprise considering the club funded him a trip to Tenerife last pre season (which is just weird in itself)).

Big 3 team according to Nigel Wood, just reflective of that I guess.

I mean, we all *saw* a grand final. Only Wigan competed in it though

He probably schedules their automated posting. They do seem to attract plenty of views and comments though, good for the game.

The articles are a bit samey for sure but they are harmless.

Odd to think that KR's last trophy success predates not just the Hull Live website but Tim Berners-Lee's invention of the World Wide Web. Reports of that win would have been typed out on one of those new-fangled micro computers by the reporter of the day and eventually printed on the old Hull Daily Mail presses down Jameson Street.
