Hi Teesside I might be wrong but think or certainly the way I read it was we were failing to stem the oppositions momentum when teams inevitably get on a roll rather than being repeatedly pinged for daft penalties

| Quote: WireWireWire "I thought we were quite bad. Our defense was woeful so not sure where the praise for that is coming from. They continually marched up field with relative ease and it was only their own errors, or lack of detail when it came to finishing chances that gave us a look in at limping past them. Burgess talked beforehand about suring up our defense and then we go leak a load of points. We're not going to challenge anything of significance this season.'"
This is Wire we’re taking about, not Wigan.
If you can’t be happy with an away win at KR, 3 from 4 wins and a narrow away defeat to a 2023 GF team, I think it’s best you pack it in.

To rub salt in it, Holroyd’s daft soft penalty was about 3 tackles in around the halfway line.
It gave KR a huge advantage from there.
I believe if we hadn’t turned over such territory, we’d had forced them to kick and the momentum would have stayed with us.
I’m confident had gone in at least nil-10 up going off the previous 30 mins.
Wire went from in the commentary as dominating the half to suddenly being second best. Memories like a goldfish!
We were far better than the score gave us at half time.
Hull KR didn’t force us to make the error, we gifted them that 12 points.

Both Wilkin and Cooke played for Hull KR and were very partisan as commentators for our game.

| Does anyone have a verifiable attendance for our game at KR (not their prediction comp guess ha ha)?
I've looked in all the usual places but seem to recall similar difficulties last season on the Robins' crowd reporting.

Suspect that their crowds are still lower than Hull FC`s.
If they start getting bigger home attendances than their City rivals, then they will start to publish them.

For reasons best known to themselves, Hull KR are not reporting attendances for individual games, but instead giving an average attendance figure at the end of the season. I think that as far as our prediction competition goes, it will probably just have to be declared null and void.

Quite possibly, but the non reporting still strikes me as a bit odd as I think FC used to have/always had the higher average.
If they are lower than anticipated (and I get the impression that KR are a club on the up) then I would have been publishing and asking for more backing a la Delia Smith.

Bet Hull KR wish they could get an attendance on their ground that you have allocated, in Yed`s prediction quiz.

Which tune? I hadn’t noticed. Don’t most clubs play some sort of 80s throwback tune? Ours used to be Two Tribes but I’m not sure if we still use it. I can only attend the odd game and I’m always in the drink queue at kick off!

Jesus how far back are you going there? I can't recall that and I've been going since 1995.
Are you sure we didn't just use it in the 80s?
