| Quote: Armavinit "Are you Bumpy in disguise? It was a damn good win away from home against a team that admittedly have struggled. They brought in a change of coach, which generally gives a team impotace, plus the fact he's had tenures with both clubs. He's revived them and coached them to a first win against a decent Salford team, in much the same manner as yesterday. You can only beat whats in front of you, FC did it in amazing style in the last 20 minutes. Accepting mediocrity? No. Following your team with blind faith? Yes, thats what fans (fanatics) do. Your obviously not a fan, but a follower from afar. Bumpy?'"
The mind boggles at such idiots, as yourself.
If you can't beat the name calling. Join them.

Idiot? No I don't think so lol. Name calling? No, likening you to a certain other negative poster? Yes. Did you read my post or just chose to take umbrage with the bit you didn't like. We won a derby away from home. Derbies are reknowned for the underdog winning, FC saw them off. Get over youself.

What an oddly familiar turn of phrase. Wonder where I've seen that before...
In what way is anyone 'excepting' (sic) mediocrity?

Please, please, please, omnipotent one, enlighten me with your words of wisdom. When was I idiotic or stupid? I have a different opinion to you and all the other negative posters, plus when faced with contradictory posts you like certain other posters, supposedly take the moral highground and berate said opposition. Don't bother to reply, it will just be nastiness again. By the way, I do enjoy watching FC in person and have done for many years. I've also had countless discussions over the years with supporters as youself and often left wondering why you bother.

Lets deal with facts, as Benitez would say;
In the previous 2 seasons - against Wire we have won 1 out of 5 games; Leeds we have won 1 out of 6 games; Wigan we have won 0 out of 4 games, conceding on average 40 points per game against Wigan.
These will be the same fans that will still have the blind faith going into Warrington on Monday.'"
I am always puzzled by this phase, accepting mediocrity. At no point in those first 60 minutes did I notice any Hull fan in the crowd simply clapping and saying "oh well, never mind". I saw plenty very much voicing their concern. As fans we have one basic choice. support the team (attend, and back then vocally and financially) or choose to stay at away. If you think the latter helps, then you and I have very different opinions.

No moral high-ground taken. You were idiotic to suggest a) I'm not a fan and b) perhaps geographical location or willingness to PAY and watch my team limits my legitimacy to post or have an opinion.
I welcome a healthy, hearty debate. Enjoy the Warrington game, Armavinit.

I labled you a supporter, idiotic not a fan (fanatic) for intimating we'll be going on Monday blindly, that's what fans do but still voice concerns were required.
I've never intimated that free speach should be abandoned just that your attitudes to posters with a different view are idiotic and stupid, again your postings are very similar in wording and attitude to a certain poster who is absent at this time. Coincidence or conspiracy theory? Your turn.

| Whilst the original post does have some merit, the OP was always going to receive a kicking due to it being posted on the back of such an emotional comeback.
I myself was swept away with the euphoria until the Warrington-Widnes result came in which reminded me of the task ahead on Monday.
Regardless of the extremely poor first 60 minutes we got the win, and it is this momentum we need to take into Monday's game.
If we do and put in a good performance (I'd accept a defeat if we play to our potential) then I think we'll have turned the corner.
If it's a submission and a good hiding, the Derby result will have been our proverbial Bread and Circuses.
I think we'll show up and push Wire hard, if not hand them their first defeat of the season.

Think you missed the point of his post but really dramatic and well worded reposte, in your own individual style.
Anyway back to subject matter. Yes FC were same old same old, for the first 60 but if we can find confidence from the last 20 minutes, who knows what FC will achieve.
Personally, I'm going for a close and dramatic win but I'm a natural optimist and well known for it.
