Are they now using Rovers Wembley win as a reference point in the history curriculum akin to the Roman invasion and the Great Fire of London.

Yes, it was exactly halfway between the two.

I understand completely the banter and even have over the years tried to appreciate why exactly supporters from another team want to go on a rivals teams site to gloat after a Derby victory although on both counts it really seems futile. But I can't really comprehend the under tones of envy and bitterness that seems to come through with some Rovers supporters (not all) still after a week posting on here when we have signed a guy who was out of work and whose last employers (their team) seemed to everyone to have driven him out of his last position there. They have a new coach arriving have apparently signed the best incoming stars and are being hailed as the top club in the city at present. pretty sad really but I think they should move on.

That post engender a lot of bites. Most naturally off topic. I was only pointing out that TS’s success in signings is not that good. Better than Hodgson’s admittedly but that would not be difficult.

It happens on all sites. FC fans are as guilty as any others. If they look at the present and not continue to live in the past they and you would see that for the last two years we have been the top club in the city. Long may it continue. Looking forward to more bites.

By definition, then, your post is also a bite (as is this one).

Well done on finishing the higher out of the Hull clubs for the past two seasons.

It’s like two bald men fighting over a comb, but I suppose you have to take what you can

Hull Live story confirms our move to Hull Uni is on for November with Pearson admitting facilities at County Road have become outdated.

Really does feel like a fresh start for the club this winter.

quite frankly having been around both Clubs for about 70 years I do think anyone from the other side of the river accusing us of living in the past is pretty rich.

Well it doesn't happen on your secret site. Can't have anyone coming on and ruffling a few feathers can we?

Cannot be a secret if even you know about it.

Changed the bit about joining a big club, obviously.

Well he certainly delivered at Rovers - this time last year the fan base were fully galvanised behind the "best coach in Super League" and the RL media were in love with your style of play
The burgeoning of Lakin's ego and its associated detrimental antagonism brought all that crashing down but fingers crossed we manage Smith's obvious talents better and allow his vast experience to benefit the club in as many areas as possible.
