Agree O'Meley is a massive loss along side Longy , but this is now the time for the likes of Tickle , Manu , Fitzy and Horne to lead like we know they can !!! COME ON U ULLLL!!!!

The Hull derby is a massive game for many people in Hull and long may it continue. The biggest two games of the year to supporters in the city and the only true derby in SL. Of course it means more to the vast majority of fans than say Salford at home.

O'Meley is a big loss but calf injuries are delicate and he has to be right.

whats more important, a win over the unwashed, or a fully fit squad going into the play offs?

As we're nearly there, the play offs, but beating the unwashed is always good.

At the end of the day you get the same 2 points for beating Rovers as you get for beating anyone else. If we lose, we lose, but hopefully we'll have our injured players back for the business end of the season. We might yet end up playing Rovers in the play-offs. That is when we'll need the likes of O'Meley and Long.

absolutely 150%

I assure you that both the club and players may spin out the "its just 2 points" malarkey for the press hounds but in the sheds there will be a raw meat approach to this derby which is a match we have earmarked to win!!
The lads and the club want a top 4 finish trust me

Batman is always better with the Joker.

Places that don't have real derbies try to maufacture them. East Midlands derby, Thames Valley Derby; it isn't the same as an intra-city rivalry.

So Man United fans don't care if they team get beat by Man City ..And the same go for the City of Liverpool/Sheffield ..Like hell they do ..I for one DON'T want HKR win any game, more so against Hull F C ps it's not just a game it's WAR with them ..Go get your

Agreed. It means more to me than any other league match. Yes it's only 2 points, but it's much much more than that.

what a strange thing to say, just as a matter of interest can you let us know which games you haven't earmarked to win then so I can get down the bookies sharpish

Of course its important to win a derby game, maybe if you've not been a F.C fan since childhood it doesn't have the same meaning but if you've grown up with your dad and grandads as black and whites then its huge. unless we lose in which case having players fit for the play offs is far more important and its just another game

Some games mean more than others. The derby is a game that most fans really want to win. How anyone can say beating Salford has the same meaning as beating Rovers is beyond me. I suspect it has more to do with reducing the pain afterwards if we lose.
