Quote: Beverley red "A wholesale clear out will put us back another season do you want another bunch of players trying to gel & frustrating the hell out of the fans? By refering to the great days of the 1980's you have hit on the big problem with our club that was the one & only time rovers were a power in the game in our 120 year history we had ten good years & trying to maintain that side of the 80's broke this club & nearly put us out of business for ever. I have watched the team since the early 1960's & have seen great days but mixed with a lot of hard times, I just wish people would celebrate the fact we are still going after what the club has been through & realise that we are progressing slowly & despite the set backs we still have a team that could go on to better things. I am a fan of rugby league & of rovers any sucsess on top of that is a bonus, I just think you expect to much. Dreams are OK as long as you realise that they dont always work out in life.'"
Well said I to have watched them since the 60s and right up to 7 yrs ago went to every home match and a lot of away, I once thought I would die and not see them in the top league again IE super league and now I hope and pray we stop hear if not for me for my grandsons
