Comedy genius. I presume you posted that as part of the launch of Red Nose Day.
It should be interesting to see how many teams we come up against this season that don't have more of last years Bulls than we have.

Have KR announced their big plan to get loads of Bulls fans there yet? They need to hurry up.

If we turn up go hard and put the effort in that was seen at Huddersfield you can't really complain,
Its a long time since I have watched a game and it looks like the guys wanted to be there, last year was laughable £1m on a squad that didn't want to know.

Aim to get what we can from KR away then look to turn them over at Odsal!

Success for me personally would be something along the lines of a 36-16 loss. No crushed morale and plenty to build upon. But you have to fear the worst and realistically we could get a drubbing. I desperately don't want Rovers to run riot and get 70.

I'll be happy if they only get 70.
I fear it will be 136-6

Big wraps to you bulls fans, take my hat off to you. I am still in massive sulk mode after last season and have not re-newed my pass and am finding it very hard to motivate myself to the new season, you guys nearly did,nt have a club. I think you might be underestimating your boys who i think will be seriously up for it, and i dont forsee a "Hammering". This is Hull KR we talking about and it would,nt surprise me in the least if it ended up a cliffhanger or you Knicking it. Good look for the season

That really made me smile.

HKR are promoting a 'bring-a-friend' offer to HKR members to swell the numbers - this happened last year for the opener against Leeds - but as for enticing the Bulls fanbase I have seen no announcements.

Maybe there will be a late offer after conferring with the new Bulls regime, but as you say it is late in the day (or week).

It would be great to set a new Championship attendance record, and maybe it will happen if the way your fans swelled the gate at Keighley last weekend can be a measure.

I can't see us getting hammered. Icon see us nicking it.

I'll have a pint of whatever you're drinking Mick

Backs against the wall mentality. Match them with effort first and foremost. Stranger things have happened.

But they haven't.

If anyone wants to pass this to Mr Toovey to read out as motivation for the team I'm sure it would help. Someone posted it on the HKR board:

"I'm sorry but anything other than a convincing 40+ point victory against that 17 would be classed as a disappointment in my view. Man for man we are far, far to good. I just hope we have that ruthlessness that we had last time we were in this league, beating teams by 80".
