I'd be happy with a 1-0 win
Hate derby week nervous already got all week like this

Hmm..we've got up to 7 first teamers out in a game Hudgell will get them up for. Can't see us winning this tbh, when was the last time we went 6 on the bounce?

20-34 Rovers
16752
MOM: Dobson

Very interested in Gentle's selection and whether he spells/rotates players for Monday and the cup.

wish i could join in with the perditions, but this time (just like every derby) my gut is telling me nothing. but it goes with out saying id take any win.

i must say that in part i agree with mrs barista, too many first teamers out combined with the fact we are due a loss. so as always when ever the scum come to pi$$ on our bon fire, all i can do is cross my fingers.

just hope their fans behave better than they did at Cas. but they are welcome to carry on like they did at Wolves when they beat each other up....lol

No idea,but Rovers always seem to get fired up for this one.If we match that then I think we may just edge it.....wheres that fence?

Someone please tell me the west upper is open, if we dont get 20k+ for this its a joke.

as for predictions, I hope Rovers wont be painting the town red again

22-14 Rovers.

Hull 32 Rovers 12
First try McKinnon
Mom Danny Tickle
Attendance 21,101
Post match calls to The Samaritans by P Sandycock G Lloyd and C Park

Nursie tells me it's time for my medicine ...

Never confident in derbies they just seem to want it little bit more than us and always seem to play their best stuff against us.

I am just going to continue the same as I have this season upto now ......................


and keep my gob shut and computer at standby

That's because they have no other goal in the season.

It will be tough with our injuries, hopefully McKinnon and Yeamo back will help. Not in a position to make any predictions just yet, see how the week goes

Games are usually won up front and with our injuries I feel Rovers pack will dominate, on the back of that they have a halfback who can capitalise on that with his passing, running and kicking. Form is something you can forget about in these games, Rovers always seem that bit more enthusiastic for the derbies too.

That said we have a resilience about us these days and have key players that do long minutes and should also have a couple of players back. Factor in home advantage and the fact we are full of confidence and we have a game I really can't call.

I think there will be less the an 6 in it, maybe a 1 point game, maybe a draw. Right now I would probably back a Rovers win, just!



Note: Rumour has it Dobson is only 50/50 at best to play, if he doesn't then we win. Also Galea might well play some minutes in the game.
