I've been saying it for a while ..Hull are in decline.

The great thing is that they haven't even realised they still think they are the next big thing.

If you was at the game, regardless of the end result, as a rovers fan you would have been biting your nails, we dominated you in the second half, and wether we deserved to our not, the game could have gone either way, I personally don’t believe the majority of these posters actually attend these games, it’s just the little things they can’t know when posting, the dreadful conditions pre and during kick off, the inability to keep the ball, the off the ball incidents which go unpunished, the fantastic following by the rovers fans who were there, the terrific atmosphere considering there was really nowt at stake, great game and spectacle it had everything, downbeat comment from Bonaire, and the usual suspects, my team busted, bruised and battered, and rovers with a drop off inside pass game, and cavalier style were worthy of the now non existent points, and I wonder if at the end of the day with bigger battles to come, made the right decision to give their all, with the percentage of energy that must of took out of Tickle and the likes, we will see shortly. On reflection due to that superb first half the best team won.

You sir talk drivel, enjoy your moment, “did you go”

I don't want to think about slippery hands and your manhood thanks

Well, that all went as I expected. People really should give me more credit, right again.

I actually like our backs but we need a genuine partner for Taylor to replace Watts and a line-breaking back rower. Until then it l feels a bit Agar/mediocre - with Kelly and Connor we have 2 of the most talented players I've seen in black and white but no platform this year. How many games has Green played out of 25 this year?

Anyway, sounds like it was thoroughly deserved so hats off, 1 win in 8 is the stuff you must have been dreaming of this time yesterday.

Wow, the dobbins won a pointless game and now the grubs are all over here telling us they're wonderful and we're in decline. Shake your heads, we had no realistic chance of doing anything in super eights, you had no chance of getting into them and the whole thing was about bragging rights. They won and well done to them, there'll no doubt be an open top bus tour of East Hull so the great unwashed can all come out and cheer their heroes. We'll lick our wounds, get all of our troops ready for next year and carry on as normal.

To the usual doom and gloom merchants give it a rest, most have waited for a poor stretch just to get Radford out banners from out of the cupboard. We were outsmarted last night andRovers got the tactics spot on,they probably just deserved the win but I dont think they will find the middle eights easy

Much as we do have bigger battles ahead and were sensible to not take undue risks in selection, the 17 chosen had to try their best. At the cold extreme of logic we could have kicked off and stood aside while you ran up a world record score, to avoid injuries and suspensions, but nobody wants that. Would probably get bans for bringing the game into disrepute, if we had!

We’ve no game next weekend and we’ll hopefully have half a dozen or so available to come back in for the next game. Plus Masoe the week after and J. Carney not too long after.

I can handle all this bragging from Rovers fans because I just keep remembering that we still finished above them in the table and that they'll yet again be fighting to avoid relegation. I would gladly lose all 3 derbys during the year if we still finished in the top 8 at the end of the year while they were scrapping against the championship clubs.

Also just a comment on Rovers, it was actually embarrassing how many times their players stayed down with 'cramp'.

Unlike Shaul and his miraculous recovery from snapping his cruciate or the little grub Harris trying to milk penalties and get players sin binned or Taylor head hunting the little guys didn’t see him try it with Jewitt though funnily enough these incidents are embarrassing

The dobbins were out of gas at the end of the first half but used all sorts of delaying and spoiling tactics in the second half (in addition to some grubby fouls which will hopefully be picked up by the Disciplinary review) to slow the game down - how long did that take?

None of which excuses a poor performance from Hull, far too many errors to win it and some mystifying tactics at times gifted it to a poor side who showed why they are bottom 4 material. Even so 400m more made by Hull emphasises how lucky the dobbins got. At the moment Hull are well short on confidence and are panicking when they get behind. Lets hope the 2 week break is used productively to get some order back in the side.

It’s well known your hatred of our team so didn’t expect any credit but lucky come on you didn’t have a clue near our line except a kick to the corner you played our reserves and created nothing you should be embarrassed

I can't blame Rovers all teams do it.

Although why would Shaul try and slow the game down on purposes when we had the momentum?

Ignore Bob he has been saying the same thing for years, although not seen him for the last few years on here?

Rovers fans deserve the right to gloat and we have to be big enough to take it, it was always going to happen soon, I suppose it's better to have happened in a game that didn't really matter in the end.

If that's your reserves they look better than the first team, maybe you should play them more than the overpaid first team, who have failed this year?
