Are the derbies getting lower & lower in everyone's priorities? If this is our "Cup Final", then I have a serious problem with the game as a whole, 'cos I really can't be bothered.
Maybe I will feel different on Sunday morning.....

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

There's too many derbies so it's only right there should be too many threads.

Seems to be a bit of disillusionment about, but I can't say that I share it. There's a few games that are a bit dispiriting even in prospect, but not too many and this isn't one of them.
I've enjoyed the season, for the most part and I'm looking forward to the run-in and hoping Rovers can secure a play-off spot. Which, frankly, we should from here but as we all know sport has tendency to kick its fans in the nuts when you start taking things for granted.
Hull have got a cup final on the horizon, and will see their season through that prism, naturally enough, with other results having less significance than that.
We've got a play-off place to chase down, and while that might provoke the odd sarcastic 'whoopee-do' from the jaded, to me it's not bad. Certainly better than not chasing a play-off place, though even then I think we tend to see games as a stepping stone rather than an event in their own right too much.
Somebody who wins a leg of the tour de france or a F1 grand prix - still worth celebrating even if they're way behind the yellow jersey or have no chance of winning the championship. |

Your apology wasn't heartfelt enough for us to lock it.
My apologies.

I don't see it as a job. It is a passion and love that we all share. Neil Hudgell:30566.jpg |

I'm really looking forward to it, I don't care if they have their eyes on the cup, we need a good win over them to set us up for a strong finish. We are the best team in the city and have proved it so far in both our games against them. Down to the fact that we have seen possibly 1/2 of the worst decisions go against us this season and the worst VR decision of all time go against us we should be further up the table than we currently are. I feel strongly we could win all of our last remaining games now.

Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's down in the dark will be brought to the light:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_67329.jpg |

I think you should apologise for the abrupt nature of your post, it's bordering on being downright rude. |
