Hull v London would be ideal for me, Hull for obvious reasons and London might help them drum up a bit of support, would get the neutrals behind them and is an easily winnable game for us.

your win rate v London since 1981 is 52%.........you opened your "new" stadium with a game v London....that was one of the 48%, last game between us was also one of the 48%..........easily winnable?

I don't want to see any 'unfancied' teams there.

Huddersfield vs Wigan or Warrington would be ideal for me, provided Hudds don't capitulate as they have done on previous Wembley visits. Wigan - Warrington would be good too.

Exactly, so I don't really care who is there* as long as it's a good match.

I dont think he meant it as you have interpreted it - i think he meant that it is a winnable game, a 52% win record suggest so, whereas playing Wigan for example, we wouldnt expect a win

He was far from meaning that. also I believe our first competitive match at our new stadium was against Fax. We won with 11 men.
But yes our record against London in all its various forms is not great. Thankfully though games are not won in the history books.

Naturally for me I want Hull in the final. Ideally against Wigan so we can avenge 85. As someone who was there in 83 I would not back us to win there against anyone.

How it will pan out...

Really?



..correct. Forgot about the Challenge Cup

Like to know where your stats come from, I they appear unusual to say the least. Certainly when you consider the last game between Hull and London resulted in a 48-12 win for Hull, hardly one of your 48%.

Lies, Damn lies and statistics. Depends on how far back you want to go.

Since the turn of the decade, Hull have won 7 and drawn 1 of the 9 games with London. Thats a 78% hit rate on relatively recent encounters.

All largely irrelevant unless they get drawn against each other though.
