Hopeful but tbh not a clue.
This is still an almost entirely new team and it is difficult to have a firm opinion off the back of two games.
The effort and application has been good so far. My concern is that without Masoe and Garbutt we’re having to try to defy RL gravity again, and that can probably only last so long. My hope is that it lasts a few weeks more - or that i’m wrong entirely this time, and we can prosper, in relative terms, playing small ball.

| I'm not getting carried away. We have beaten a decidely rubbish (on the night) Wakey and did OK but not beat a slightly understrength FC.
Leeds look average at best but could still turn us over easily. This is one of those games that wecould just be edged out of like in previous years. Size isn't our best asset so we must be smart with the ball and willing to go round them rather than drive up the middle.
Play like we did last week and keep cutting out the errors and we'll keep it close. Smart, calm, game-management decisions will then see us home and its another test to see if this new side has that ability.

Well, i’m not going to throw in the towel - when you’re at the level we’ve been these last few years these things are going to happen.
I was trying to take hope from the Houston Rockets. They’ve been doing pretty well putting out the smallest team in the NBA (by some measures) since 1963.
https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/286 ... all-lineup
On in important difference though is that they have the 2017 (Russell Westbrook) and 2018 (James Harden) League Most Valuable Players in their team.
They do play in red though, so there’s that.
Just kind of bored with it tonight more than angry or frustrated or sad.

Well, you were right about it right about it being a tough game mate but that score line was a little unexpected wasn’t it? I guess after taking the mighty FC close last week, it’s back down to earth with a bump

A Adler is not a true reflection of FC fans.
It was always going to be a tough game after last week and Leeds getting a week off, Saints will be tpugh for FC tomorrow, so you'll find most real FC fans are more focussed on that than squabbling with KR fans.

| Your fans showed their true colours last night, a bottle thrown at Leeds players and then a 2nd bottle thrown at Leeds fans. Disgusting behaviour, will your club be taking any action or just ignore it and sweep it under the carpet?

| Dreadful performance last night,more injury worries with abdull.Thought parcell was far and away our best player,we tried but sadly leeds were terrific on the night and we were never able to stem the tide.

Get over yourself. It’s called banter and it’s what makes the Hull / Rovers relationship so special. I am a “real Hull Fc fan” as you so eloquently put it and have been for forty years. First result I focus on...Hull FC’s, second result Hull KRs. ‘Twas always thus, and always thus will be.
FWIW, Rovers will stay up and comfortably so.

Should be a police matter now?
If said bottle was aimed at the trumpeter I have a certain sympathy for the Bombardiers
