WTF?!! Lincolnshire 1 mile away? I live in East Hull and I'm a good 5 miles from the KC.

Besides Lincolnshire is not something either of the two Hull clubs have (AFAIK) looked at tapping into - it's dominated by football clubs (Grimsby, Shorpe, Lincoln City etc), and has always been football, that will never change.

Serious question - if Quins do suffer from a lack of awareness & advertising, hasn't Sky ever helped them with this?

Chev Walker
Chas I'Anson
Michael Ratu
Scott Taylor
Richard Beaumont
Frankie Mariano
Sam Latus
Jack Latus

That makes 21 players. In other words if all the Aussies left the club tommorow we would still have a starting 13, four subs + 4 in reserve. Blows the 'team full of aussies' crap to bits IMO. *



* Esp from a team so dependent on them throughout the 95-2000 (at least) time period.

In your eyes......mate, take off the rose tinted spex.

How many games have Taylor, Spaven, Beaumont, Mariano and Jack Latus actually played in first grade?

If you played that lot you'd be just where we are. I wonder how many of your fans would be turning up then.

Roofs has responded and responded very well , we have some good home grown talent at Rovers , however we also have some good Aussie players who chose to play for our club , there must have been some attraction for them to come and want to play for our club, i wonder how appealing your club is to potential signings ..............lets face it , you have changed names how many times , your attendance is poop , your away support is poop, your atmosphere is poop, your performance is poop, if the RFL had the courage to admit they had made the "expansion " mistake teams like yours would be relegated , you bring nothing to SL at all, it's rugby Yawnion territory from your neck of the woods , get Widnes & Fax back ,proper RL teams .
