It would perk me up a bit if Salford and Leigh could both lose tonight.

Personally, I'm looking forward to it.
Despite being sure that we'll get beaten, I'm hoping (desperately) to see some improvements and something that we can take into our next game.
It wont be too long before (some) spectators are allowed back into BV and I can't wait.

Let's face it, with the lean pickings we've had over the 35 years I've been watching, what we have here is nothing new.
We try and pretend that it is but, apart from the odd qualification for the play offs and a Challenge Cup semi final, we've had very little real success.
In some kind of way, it's the peverse sense of hope that keeps us all going, it's certainly not the regular visits to Wembley or Old Trafford.

Come on Trin !.

I’m cautiously optimistic for tonight. Not confident enough to predict a win, but I reckon it could be a closer than everyone expects.

I'll have the remote control in hand at the end of the game as I'll not want to hear any excuses

I start to watch it live but I have to turn it off if we start to lose badly. Then I follow the score on twitter its easier that way for me

True to my word I didn’t watch it. and I don’t regret it.

However if the score is anything to go by there was some improvement?

I for one could not fault their endeavour or attitude it was excellent for 80 minutes. A real intensity in defence and we had enough possession and territory to have won quite comfortably really, just and ragged again in their 20.

You better be right as I’ll watch it on Trin TV, I don’t normally watch defeats. Just shows how low we have gone when I kind of view this as a victory!

You are now responsible for my fragile mental health

Trinity and mental health, a responsibility no man should have to bear!

Plenty of effort, can’t fault them for that. But there is still no creative ideas in their half. In fact i actually found last night the most frustrating game of all because given all the ball and territory we had and given Hull were down on energy we really should have won it with something to spare.

I can’t fault the effort in any game we’ve played this season and I know some think we have capitulated after 40 minutes but it was there in black and white last night. We managed to get plenty of field position again but we simply can’t build any pressure because we can’t score any points. Our attack as been the same for a few years and it’s not just now, if you watch our halves they are glued to one side of the field and they never move. If it’s not working change it, get some plays on, get the halves to switch play and try different things to put doubt in our opponents line and break up the defence. It’s all so predictable it’s run to that blade of grass to get to that blade of grass, get some forwards on drop off running at pace. If it can be seen, it can be solved, we make an easy game look complicated.

I agree with most of that and it's only 2018/early 2019 that we were so much more of an attacking threat. Baffling.
