so you would have taken the possible relegation after 11 years in SL? strange one I thought after 11 years you would have wanted to have done better than that,

I think you're slightly confusing the concepts of 'before' and 'after'.
Anyway, there's wanting and then there's accepting. A lot of people thought we'd be gone by 2008. I bought my 2007 shirt thinking it might be the one chance I'd have to by a Rovers SL jersey.

If we stay up some might change their mind, but if you offered another 10 years similar to the last, I think most of us would take it today. Even if we do win, it is still a pretty attractive imaginary bargain IMO.

Realistically, Hudgell and Crossland probably won't be propping us up in 2026, so who knows where we'll be.

This season has been really disappointing, but that doesn't negate what went before.

Flash in the pan springs to mind Jake..Good luck for next season.You wont see anymore silverware this season.

Perhaps? But we absolutely love the silverware sitting in our Trophy cabinet. Were you watching?

Talking of Wembley, whatever happens on Saturday you'll still have your World Record.

As previously posted, I do want you to win and stay up.

Was told the Dr has promised 10k per player win bonus? Is kopcak fit?masila is a beast on his day but their pack is one of the few we look more powerful than. Lui and dobbo sau are class but I think with home advantage against a team that don't travel great we should just have enough.saying that same could have been said of giants.im less and less happy with cockayne at FB. Maybe Marsh there and Blair n campo half's and Horne 2nd row..is greenwood able to play? When he went off we stalled a bit.very nervous as game gets nearer.

Interesting weekend for the Hull clubs and hopefully we can win on Friday to inspire you

Let's see if you can beat Wigan u23s because you failed badly against Warrington u23s

But like getting beat by two championships sides

Re: Million pound game : Mon Sep 26, 2016 8:25 pm  

At least we can say we are the only club to ever win the Silk Cut Saucer, erm, Plate. That will never be won by anyone else and is ours. The trophies Hull win, they have to keep handing back. So not win them, more.....borrowed.
