Well, seing as I'm off on me Jols now, it's time to ask for your thoughts on games in days gone by, this time against our final league fixture - against HKR.

Clearly I am hoping that we will have one more feature to do, but we won't know until much nearer the time whether that is the case - and certainly as to who it could be against!

So, for now, I would love to hear your stories of matches against the Robins or other memories involving the Robins - and although I may regret this this offer is open to away supporters as well!

Thanks again to all who have helped put these features together.

I know - but there's only so many stories to tell and I do have the editorial control!

My most recent memory is listening to the radio on the way back from our match over there this season. Their chairman was being interviewed and was asked about complaints from away fans about how they were treated visiting their ground and he replied 'We don't care about the away fans'. I can confirm this opinion and he won't be getting any more money from me at his ground again.

Winning at their spot last year when brad drew tore them to pieces in a blistering 15 min spell to win the game!

Turning it on for 15 mins and winning the game - coming out of the ground at full time and listening to all those very bitter hull kr fans saying that we cheated and the referee cheated and the RFL dont like them and never wanted them in SL....priceless !!!!

Ben Thaler penalty try, rather controversial. Winning it for Toppo last year, KR's first game back in SL, about 3 mins from the dream start, very gutting to lose that day!

Always remember we struggled against them in the 80's, very hard side to beat!

remember playing them 3 times in the old NL1 system and losing all 3 but then the one counted after we had finished minor league champs was the 1 made us the first team in Europe to qualify for a grand final play off . the match was probably one off the hardest emotionally and physically i have seen 2 teams compete in ( only topped by wakey cas for survival) and although the losers would eventually have a 2nd chance against featherstone the week after you just knew that the game had taken its toll on both teams which ultimately lead to KR being hammered by fev at Hull the week after . two weeks later Wakefield were of course more refreshed Wakefield won the match to qualify for super league never to play KR until they too qualified for SL and we all know what happened then being KRs first every scalp

It is a double page feature you know!

Could you give a little more detail - as each game you mention has it's own significance.

Ta,

The play off game in 98 winning it near the end and Franny Stephenson running past the KR fans giving it the big one which then led to the KR fans lobbing bins on the pitch and trying to get on the pitch at the Wakey players. I was then kicked in the chest by a Wakey fan who was jumping over the fence onto the field screaming 'DON'T YOU TOUCH OUR EDIT PLAYERS!' Winning the game last year in the last 10/15 minutes after the loss of Toppo a top atmosphere and a fitting tribute to a great man and player. forums.rlfans.com/viewtopic.php?t=421878 BIGAL1.

Our part time players threw the Fev game as it would have meant most of them being shipped out in the close season

let me confirm to you now that Wakefield Trinity's tactics that day were to send a message to the team they expected to play again in the grand final.

Quite possibly the physically biggest Trinity team I have ever seen were on a mission to leave Hull Kingston Rovers in no doubt who the daddies were!

After the game, in which Hull Kingston Rovers had taken of very cruel battering, I spoke with Stanley Gene who was laid on the physios table receiving treatment. Without being condescending I was trying to look on the positives for Rovers and the fact that they got to play Featherstone the following week and a place in the grand final.

Stanley's reply wasNo mate, after the battering we just received I doubt we'll be able to put much of a challenge, we're spent. We knew before the game it would be tough and we desperately needed the weeks break that a win would offer us.[/i

That's a strange statement coming from such a champion as Stanley Gene but I think it was coming straight from the heart and was honestly how he felt.

The rest is history, we know that Featherstone went on to win the following week by a decent margin, courtesy of the physical battering that Wakefield Trinity had given to Hull Kingston Rovers.

Thankfully it is history. It came very close to an undeserving Fev winning the final - undeserving in terms of both finishing 5th place, and on the day. We were talking about this yesterday at the u18s, thankfully the touch judge had it in them to make a decision.

The 74/75 Yorkshire Cup Final when 2nd Division Rovers defeaed Trinity 15-11. The first cup final I ever attended.
