bang on the money

We've saved our worst performances for beatable mid table opposition (Hull twice, Bradford & Salford). That's what's defined our season to date. Probably not a good omen for Friday

In more recent timesnow kr are an established side in SL things have become a lot more even 1W 1L 1D. Should be a good game for sky.

I hope the fact the Bulls game is on sky doesnt dramatically affect our following (hope to see at least a couple of million

) and I also hope we stick with the youngsters and put in a good performance. It should be a close game, a win really gives us a great chance of making the 8. I disagree with the attitude that theres no point because we wont do anything in them anyway.. The aim is always to finish as high as possible and if we win a playoff game thats got to be a positive thing. Fair enough we wont win the thing but steps in the right direction.



So we dont attempt to win our remaining games and let Bradford have 8th.. great plan that. We cant help the fact they have been deducted points and we just have to try and win our games like we would have been if they hadnt had the points taken off.

As for the Wakey game, it becomes a real pressure game should be lose to Bradford on Friday. At home I think we have enough to beat them but they are improving lately and it will be tough. Fingers crossed we can finish the season in a positive manner.

19 man squad: www.hullkr.co.uk/on-the-pitch/ne ... nnounced19 Hall, Cox and J. Green in. Clinton and Lovegrove miss out from last week's 17.

We look a little light up front for Friday but looking forward to seeing James Green and Coxy back!

Clinton worked so hard on Sunday, it would be virtually impossible for him to back up so quickly. Poor lamb.

Mutton. That's what he is. Mutton.

I don't think I've ever disliked a Rovers player as much as I dislike Clinton.

Damn you Stan, stealing words I was typing.

12 Hull born players in that 19

Stealing a living, your Joel. To think some declared days before his signing was announced that, if Rovers could sign any prop in the whole wide world, they would pick, er, him. Krayzee?

Should be a good game. Too close to call.

I did a cost-benefit analysis on our Joel a few months ago. You'd have liked that.

I've always liked him. Bit chunky, came with a splendid reputation, nice to look at, big disappointment and robbed Rovers blind. What's not to love? Linked with FC. Crikey.

We could pay the taxi fare from east hull to west hull to ensure he gets there to sign if it's a problem.

Small hamstring injury for Rhys incurred during the Leeds game. Should be available for selection next week.

Ah, excellent. Don't worry tho' - Mrs Barista will pick up the tab. Her prediction that Rovers would finish top 4 is going to cost her £10, which should more or less cover the fare.

Would be quite apt too, as my charity was 'the fly Joel Clinton home' fund.

We've not yet restated placings post-play-offs. Pretty sure this is what was referenced by the great and the good.

That system was only used once (in 2009) and was swiftly removed the following season for some reason.

The cynic in me thinks it had a lot to do with our league placings over those years.

Big ask tonight without our 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11 and 13. Really important game; hopefully the lads can dig deep.

Part of the game.

Yep. Probably not part of Eddie's pre-match narrative, though - we'll see, perhaps I do him a dis-service. RAVAGED!



Bradford's prolonged teetering is the bigger story, in fairness.

Rovers by 22.

Nice to see that Sandercock and the team read my posts

I suppose we were playing a full strength team of international table toppers...

Are you Craig Sandercock by any chance...???

Stick to scaring children from under bridges, your betting tips are freppin' crap.
