Whilst I'm happy for my KR friends and family, and I'm big enough to admit the better team certainly won on Saturday, I will be supporting the same team as my darling husband on the 29th August...he better not get used to it

the worst pairing for me...the whinos and the dobins, hate them both!!!!
in all seriousness though, congrats to the dirty dobins. enjoy your trip to wemberley (lol) enjoy it as much as you can, as after you get spanked by the whinos, the sights wont be as pretty in the weeks that follow.

(Offy, a whino supporter for 80mins come CC final)

Sums you up then Wilf.

In the major finals that Hull have played in, I have never wanted you to win any but I have always been pleased for my black and white pals and their families that they got to experience it. Jealous too, but pleased for them nonetheless.

3 generations of my family heading down to London for Challenge Cup weekend. Most have never seen us play there. We know we wont win but it wont dampen our excitement or ruin our experience. You would even begrudge us that..

Small minded and bitter Wilf. Sorry.

I dislike rovers as much as anyone but that's the club and their owners, not the every day fans who, despite what they all believe about the oppositions' supporters, are all pretty much the same, coming from the same streets in the same city. I know plenty of rovers fans who were secretly pleased when we won in cardiff

As long as it's only once every 29 years then why begrudge them it?

Nice to see all my KR part timer mates jumping on the bandwagon, got to feel happy for their fans for getting there as in the end we all go watch some disappointing rugby in Hull and long for brighter days, and that 2013 semi was a great day for me and Saturday will be for them. However I wish with every fibre of my being that Grudgell never gets his greasy mits on any silverware and will be begrudgingly cheering Leeds come the final.

Can't agree with this, I hated FC getting to Wembley, the 2 recent times they've been there are 2 chances they had to kill a hoodoo that really hurts them and its also a chance to rub our faces in it. I have planned holidays both those times purely to get out of town just in case the unthinkable happens. I'll admit when they play well, I'll congratulate them on a good performance but I'll never be happy about it or pretend to want anything other than them to lose.

I have nothing against FC fans, a lot of my best mates are cursed with being fans of them and I wish them no ill, I just enjoy seeing them disappointed.

Plain and simple really for me

Hope they get hammered at Wembley and I mean cricket score hammered .
Anyone wishing them good luck is not an FC in my eyes , I've got a lot of kr supporting Mates who I love but when it comes to rugby (well that's s different story )
Missed the semi and will be away for the final .. Thank god !!!!

marching on together !!!!!!!!

You will be sadly missed by me.

morning des, you got ur tickets yet, gotta be honest really jealous great day out, still hope you get mullered though lol

I'm glad Rovers got to the final and I'll be rooting for them to beat Leeds, you might think that declassifies me as an FC fan but I'm thinking anything positive for the city as a whole (even though I no longer live there) & beating leeds far outweighs any dislike for the red & white bstds.
I like rugby league, I like watching competitive matches, of the two teams I dislike Leeds far more than Rovers.

Wll the Rovers fans gloat and shove it in the faces of FC fans IF they win, of course, why should that bother you, really, it's not THAT big a deal in the grand scheme of life.
And why should we compare ourselves to the oft viscious hatred that is embodied in the world of soccer, sorry but I'm not of that ilk, that doesn't mean you can't be passionate about your team and your dislike of your rivals and I'll happily see Rovers lose games and laugh at their misfortunes and not have any problem with FC fans wanting them to get battered in the final (& KR fans vice versa) but for me I just don't feel that way.

I think he's right. With every passing visit to Wembley that we fail to win comes a bigger sense of despair for some of us. I personally am not interested so much in a Grand Final win. What I and many like me want is a Wembley win. Maybe you had to be emotionally involved with Wembleys 80, 82, 83 & 85 to get that. I say maybe.
80 vs that lot which we will forever be reminded of. 82 when Sammy did kick the crucial goal. 83 when we should have won and then 85 which we are always told was the best final ever. It hurts like hell. The only final we've been to since then that I didn't expect us to win was 2008. With the exception of 05 it has been incredibly heartbreaking and boy do they love to remind us.

As for wanting them to win. Do me a favour Mr bump. You've been taking in too much Hertfordshire air. Do as I did and get away and move to Sussex it will unscramble your mind

I would think hull fc fans have differing views about never having won at Wembley, the few I know absolutely hate Rovers fans reminding them. I do KNOW however the hull players really want to 'get this monkey off their backs'. I think the Hull Daily Mail article by one of the players before one of CC games earlier this year when the player giving the interview stated they were desperate to right this record to stop Rovers fans reminding them in the derbies.
