Hull City Council reckon 1k to 2K but if you counted them yourself well done. How can you tell though from being in the "crowd"?
It's "Queen Victoria Square" by the way. |

You live in dream world! If they'd been realistic and said "approx. 1,000" I could have got on board with it, but to say 2,000 just puts the cherry on the cake of a fantastic weekend.
From fans on Friday saying "at least we won't get nilled" to an ex-Hull FC player scoring 5 tries to a record defeat at Wembley and in a final!
Then when you think it couldn't get any better, Bobby Bubbles turns up! 
And to today, piddling down rain and less than 1,000 fans to welcome home the biggest losers in the City's history and to hear of your chairman quoting Roosevelt in his speech! Well, this is, without doubt the best Rugby weekend i've had without FC playing.
I want to thank your chairman, your coach and your players for a truly magnificent 48-72 hours. And lastly to you, the fans - without your biting, bitterness and flustered responses on all forms of social media and message boards it wouldn't have been the weekend it was.
Thank you. |

Hundreds of Hull KR fans gather in the rain to congratulate their team's Challenge Cup efforts.

Nil Hudgell quoting Roosevelt as well. What an egotist. |

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?: |

Quote: WIZEB "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.'"

The Man in the Arena. Basically saying he deserves load of credit as diversion from the point in hand. If only they'd managed a point.
Back to work tomorrow with scores of Rhinos fans. I warned them against complacency on Friday and they laughed. I'm sure we'll share a tale or two in the morning.  |

I've not enjoyed a bank holiday weekend this much in years.
Hull KR - the gift that keeps on giving.
