Not had a cup final since 79 in no small part to how the club was run.We went into Admin with out stealing anyones Thunder even when the Sharks were swimming round we have come out the other side.We dont kid ourselves we are a top four side we know we are a rubbish side with a rubbish ground and now with a rubbish coach or so we are told.Like your club of a few years ago we await someone to build us a new ground and we have a bloke who is intent on putting us on the map once again in charge.Forgive us for being smug when we put one over a side who are supposedly miles better than ours more so in the way it happened.Who knows we might even have a cup final next year fingers crossed.

Mike Smith, no less, says you'll finish 4th this season. Honestly, do keep up.

Oops Was quite late. Rovers have a troll called degoose, easy mistake to make.

Who has managed to survive through administration and the hard times under it's own identity.

Now, presumably if you take a club with 100 years behind them and a large fan base, and merge these with a top 4 super league side, keep all the good players, the directors, coaches etc, offer that new club total and complete dispensation to the amount of over-seas players they can have.
Wipe off all their debts completely, build them a brand new state of the art stadium in the original City which has the 100 year old fan base behind them, let them keep exactly the same name and colours in order to appease any fans.....

and presumably you should have a world beating side right ?
WRONG - you end up with a side which despite all of this can only manage one cup win in the last 13 years. A side which is completely in the headlines for the wrong reasons - drugs offences, playing ineligible players, not getting players to sign contracts and letting them leave the club at their will, a club who pledge their support to the Women's centre in Hull then signs a convicted wife-beater the same week, a club which was run so poorly that the fans constantly shout for the head of the CEO, the coaches etc.
And of course the fans - to show their gratitude to the RFL for all that they have done to try to fabricate success at this hybrid club, they tear down goal posts, throw bottles at players, and brick the away fans' coaches.

Now, what were you saying about underachieving ?

That's rubbish, Dobbo. Must try harder.

i think all that is an achievment how many other clubs can claim to all that news coverage

Ben Cockayne, Willie Mason, Paul Cooke, Dobson de-registered, crowd trouble at Wire, Morgan Out, Sandy Out.....shall I go on ?
