| It's alright beating the likes of Wigan at home but when it really matters this is what they do.

Are Rovers still the real deal?'"
Sadly for them they can't play every game in the city of Hull.
Usually get found out away from home.

Warning.
If you see a white, dark haired male measuring approximately 4ft 11 inches tall in Hull City Centre tonight do not approach him.

| But rovers won the arm waving competition by a mile.
Davies calling that whiney little Rovers grub minichiello everytime he got the ball was the biggest insult of the day, he's not fit to lace Mark Minichiellos boots.

| Moaning about the ref, worse decision of the game was the Hiku shot to the head while the player was on the floor.
Not sure how the officials missed that, was naughty, should be sitting out a couple of games.

cartoons/WB17.gif I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011.
Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony.
I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar.
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.

| Oh dear, bubble burst!!!
So, the trophy-less clock ticks on remorselessly, getting ever closer to the FORTY year point!!
Or, to put it another way, there has now been 128 'major' top-level RL competitions played since April 1985, all 128 of which have passed our nearest and dearest by! That is a long time between drinks, even the likes of Leigh, Sheffield, Castleford and our good selves have had the occasional sup since rovers last taste!
Wigan simply suffocated, bullied and dominated rovers, made absolutely sure right from the start that there would be no repeat of the league game from a few weeks back. Way too strong for rovers in every department.
Rovers are going to have to pick themselves up off the floor and quick. They have two shots left or the clock really will tick past the forty year mark next April.

How do you calculate 128? Purely academic question… i’m curious whether you counted the LLS for example?
Perfect storm, Rovers could win a trophy. Like Leigh (and very nearly Rovers, in fact - but no cigar) last year. But it remains unlikely.
How many of those 128 trophies were won by Wigan, I wonder? And how many is optimal to maximise joy through a fan lifetime without getting desensitised? Like if you’re a Celtic fan, how to you celebrate a 12th league title in 13 years? A slightly bigger blob of ketchup than normal on your chips?
I’ll probably not see Rovers win a major trophy in my adult life. 1925 to 1979 was a long wait, so it is not like my generation of robins is uniquely afflicted. And there’s footage from the more recent golden era in times of need. This is probably as good as it gets, so might as well make the best of it for as long as it lasts. In amongst the subplots and oddities. I suspect there’s more fun here, in some ways, than as a fan of the dully impressive silverware production line clubs. There, I’ve cheered myself up, even if I have had to rely on adapting fugly person’s ‘good looking people don’t develop personalities’ argument.
