On a lesser scale then a member of the opposing teams boardroom but on the same lines Hull Fans where quite insistent that they never wanted to see Hull KR in Super League and wanted our club to go under. Could argue that the Hull fans said their opinions in much larger numbers. After the years Rovers have spent in SL I wonder how many Hull fans have changed their opinions. I'd warrant not many.

| Quote: barham red "I do find this attitude odd, maybe you wasn't around in the 80's, but when the 2 teams where the best sides in the comp it was fantastic for the sport and for the city. I'd got no joy from seeing FC out of business, in fact I'd get no joy from seeing any other team out of business. My ideal situation was for us to win everything with FC as runners up. Still each to their own I suppose, just find it a bit of a bitter chip to carry around.'"
I think it was worse in the 80s tbh, Good Friday was a testament to that! I remember massive police presence and horses down Airlie Street during derbies.

It maybe was or maybe the bad memories fade quicker than the good. Brickings at the boulevard and seemingly a hell of a lot more trouble than we see nowadays or maybe it was because I was a hell of a lot younger in the 80's and saw it more.
I do believe that the City and the sport is a far more attractive proposition with 2 sides in SL than it is with just one.

I do agree but the buzz around the city was amazing and to be fair rugby in Hull is better now than it was in the late 90's early 2000's. There is more to talk about and if you discount some of the lower common denominators on RLfans the banter is still good and in the whole good natured. Nothing better than having one over on my B&W friends and vice versa for them.

Oh yes the buzz was awesome in the 80s!!
I think the problem is the newish supporters would sooner win a derby than any-thing else!! me personally I would lose every-one if it guaranteed a piece of silverware

Me too, but in the dry years its at least a bit of consolation. (you'll have to take my word for that )

And similar comments from Rovers fans when faced with the rumour of the CP derby being moved to the KC. The same attitudes exist among both sets of fans.

Or it's promised payments in years to come, like been paid 50 grand for a coaching clinic after playing days are over.

If that's the case then it's daft. Surely you go to support your club.
Saying that I have refused to go in the past but that was back in the days of Rovers being in the national leagues and I ended up giving the RSG £15. Can't remember what the full circumstances where, Hull offered us 15k to play a game. I refused to go as I was left feeling Hull where taking the mick out of ourselves. We where doing a good enough job of that ourselves at the time. Hull come back saying we could have 50% of the North stand receipts IIRC. Not sure if that game went ahead in the end. My memory is fading me?

Suppose 2005 was a few seasons ago. More Embarrassing for your lot that night wasn't it?

| Haven't bothered to read through the whole 12 pages but it's a little bit self centred to think you are the most hated team in SL.
'Some' Wakefield fans have been irritated by the attacks on Agar but to be honest, most are happy with our team now (including coach) and just want to get on with the season

You see we have been champions 4 times and wc champs since then! We are also current champions. So we have nothing to be embarressed about! until hull fans mention the cc I dont really remember it. In a nut shell Leeds fans simply don't care about 05 and thats just being honest.
The fact that you last beat us 5 seasons ago is very funny and should bother you.
