| If we can defend/keep out Wigan for a few sets we'll gain a lot of confidence and may have a chance. On the other hand, Wigan go over once/twice early on, I think we'll crumble to another heavy defeat.

I may be old, sad and frumpy, (fortunately not obese or a poor speller, mind), but I know a good analyst when I see one. Given your success in predicting Rovers ascent above FC in the second half of last season based on home/away fixture weighting etc, how do you think Rovers "homeward 9" will pan out? This is the blind optimism thread, but I trust your impartial realism implicitly.

| There is a perfect storm............. where Wigan are injury hit and way below their best.......Rovers produce their very best and give the very best they have...................................
On the day .................and it is a very rare day....................Rovers are just too good for Wigan.
So naturally Rovers gift the game to Wigan anyway.
A Greg Eden loose carry? Or maybe a Con Mika burst onto a short pass at 100 mph rebounding off his chest? Perhaps a 5th tackle penalty on our own line after 3 lung busting heroic double sets?
Somehow, some way this Rovers team will find a way.

Don't be so harsh on yourself no one has ever accused you of being frumpy.

| Most likely.
Mrs B's obsession with Hull Kingston Rovers most probably is linked to a childhood problem.

| Hey guys just looking for a bit of advice.
For and foremost are you able to pay on the gate for this game (or do you have to go a ticket office or anything)?
Secondly how do you go about getting tickets for the seated stand (above the well)? Does this usually sell out? Would prefer watching the game from this stand than the away one (too far from the pitch!)
Cheers for any replies ![Smile icon_smile.gif](images/smilies//icon_smile.gif)

You didn't answer her question.
Last year you said our run in of away games would see us battle Bradford for 8th place whilst your abundance of home fixtures would see you "nailed on" for 6th.
How do you see the rest of the league campaign going with your remaining fixtures including trips to Catalans, Saints, Warrington, Wigan and Leeds. You've got us twice, mind, so there's four certain points for you.

You are like a little lap dog always jumping on the back of other peoples arguments.
Hull FC have yet to beat 4 of the 5 teams you listed above this season. ![Very Happy icon_biggrin.gif](images/smilies//icon_biggrin.gif)

Duly noted. However, Rovers are the only team in the competition to play better in summer conditions, so optimism is justified.
