Nice words from Justin regarding Horney and good to see that he has already lent his support to the testimonial year.
Regarding the game though, it appears that Agar intends to field near to a full strength team wheras Justin plans to give everybody a game.
Could be a bit of a farce if Hull go into it with 17 players and use 12 substitutions and Rovers turn up with a 25 man squad and use unlimited subs.
I hope they get their heads together leading up to the game and come up with a compromise otherwise it could turn into a bit of a farce for what i expect will be a very well attended event from both sides of the river.

Totally agree. Although i guess if we take it more serious than you it will give Justin an excuse when we hammer you.  |

TBH I wouldn't care too much if you did provided we repaid you in the league fixtures.
I would expect both sides to start strong, without risking anyone who's carrying a knock, and then to change it a lot at half time. Result will mean nothing as long as both sides come out of it with no injury concerns.

I agree about injuries, but saying the result means nothing is yet another excuse! |

I can see arguments for both sets of rules. This is Hulls only friendly against a Super League side and we have a few new players who need to blend in and get familiar with each other and plays etc.
Rovers play a few more friendlies and probably would like to get more fringe players involved in the derby type atmosphere for the experience.
Leave the final decision to R Horne it is his testimonial.  |

The thing is mate, Agar knows that despite it only being a friendly it will take a lot of early pressure off him if you beat us. The pressure will be right on him if we give you a beating and then you are faced Saints and Hudds first up in the league.
I think this message is been hammered home to your players which is why they all seem so "up" for the game from various interviews i have read.
Justin is far more secure in his job and can afford to blood players like Taylor, Spaven, Hodgson, Beaumont, Mariano etc safe in the knowledge that the knives wont be out if we lose and the youngsters get invaluable experience incase they are needed when the real stuff starts.

I agree, I definitely think FC (and Agar) need a result a lot more than we do. Don't get me wrong, I'll be delighted if we do win (again) but I wont be crying in my beer if we don't. |

Cant disagree with any of that. However, wouldnt you rather be taking the game seriously like we are? |

I'm sure that whichever players pull on the Rovers shirt will take the game seriously irrespective of their age, experience and level in the pecking order within our squad. To be honest i would expect to beat you whichever side we turn out.
We have a game against Bradford i believe closer to the start of Super League where i expect our full side to play together. |
