| Quote Mild Rover="Mild Rover"I largely agree. If we do go down, we’ll have the best record of any relegated team in the SL era, I think. Which’d be typically Rovers and scant consolation.
Part of us not being good enough, is that to get a win takes a bigger physical and mental effort than it does for better teams and I think that is why we’re so up and down this year.
I know Smith, like our other recent coaches, likes to ‘play some footy’ - and that would normally appeal to me. I also know fans can quickly tire of ‘5 drives and a kick’. However, I would like us to go a bit more grit and grind now. I think we need that mentality rebuilding, and I don’t think we have enough talent for expansive, expressive play to be our most effective option week in, week out.'"
So instead of pontificating, on this occasion, get thee sen to Salford, and cheer them on.

| I watched it back this morning and it was painful watching, no brains, no kicking game, no leadership, no game management.
London we all know arent the best squad of players but what they have is the right attitude and if your not at 100% your in trouble as we've found out twice now. SL this year has shown me that you only have to have an off day and you've lost, Wakey at home a prime example. What im getting at is given the position we are in the league we should be going out with the same attitude as London and giving 100% for 80 minutes, but there's no middle ground with us unfortunatly, were either really good or were terrible and weve been terrible far to often.
I really hope we stay up, the club needs to be in SL too, we need a coach that can inject some mental toughness IMO, i think TS is the right man and i think we'll win at Salford too.

Agree with all of that except I fear for us at Salford. Yes, we could win, but the mental side of the team seems as fragile as glass. The lack of a vociferous and demanding leader is plain to see,we seem out enthused too often and the kicking game is very hit and miss, and in what I would call "big" games against teams around us, it,s been poor to bad. Hence defeats which may send us down. Whatever happens on Friday, next year will be a different squad, but fear it will be in the Championship. I just hope I am wrong.
I really think London will turn over Wakefield, Think they will out enthuse Wakey they just don,t lie down and credit to them for that. That said 4 points virtually given to them by Saints. Can,t blame Saints for doing what they did, just wish they had done it for us. It does create an imbalance in the placings though, and this time at our expense.
Yes, I,m having a right moan, but I am totally fed up with them for repeatedly letting down the fans who keep turning up, and it hurts.
It is only a game, and on Friday(I can,t go on Friday)I will hope lady luck is on our side for a change, it,s time she was, and that the team turns up and does what is vital and win.If not we all know the consequences.
Engage brains boys and flaming well win.You are capable, just do it.

That'll be 100 years til the curse is lifted then

I was thinking today that I think in the present situation smith would suit Hulls player roster, and Radford ours , think Radford would of got the job done given the games that smith has had, I think smith is a proper good guy and massively respected and will turn this ship around but we are now drinking in the last chance saloon, was it my imagination but didn’t our coach in the 90’s have a big spat with smith when he was hudds coach, I think it was the coach who used to say “ very much so” constantly when interviewed.

| The tannoy announcement to stay off the pitch with 4 mins to go filled me with dread. It's like a player celebrating a try before scoring and then messing it up (seen us do that before).
Too many different permeatations. Win or draw and we're safe.
Lose and London win is worse case scenario. But! And this is a real outside one the way Catalans are playing, if Huddersfield lose by 13 points more than us, they go bottom.

Since their (London) beat us the second time on that carpet we've been waiting to get our revenge on them and the players (Wakey) certainly want revenge big time that's why i think we will put on a big score on them on friday night and it will all turn out a anti-climax and you'll be safe regardless of your game result.
