I think we should all meet up for a pre match drink and sing song.
Let's say at the top of Wembley way , between the twin towers.

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. Frederick Douglas:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_30596.jpg

If Rugby League Rocks, then Hull KR is its Soul.:



Quote: Chester Wednesday "I think we should all meet up for a pre match drink and sing song.

If this is a genuine attempt at irony, then 10 out of 10.

If not, enjoy the search, but I will guarantee you will miss kick off and will be a Billy No Mates in the process.

There is a tower of sorts outside of Wembley Park tube station and an advertising tower near the Wembley arena, approx 600m apart and about 30000 fans milling around in between at any one time.

Thanks but I think I'll pass on this.

The green man pub Wembley looks like a good pre match watering hole.

Anyone remember the star? Two stops from Wembley. The landlord in there couldn't believe how so many different team colours could have a sing song without fighting. He looked forward to challenge cup week every year said it was the best takings of any week never mind day.
Will always remember a guy standing up on a chair and singing (I think) a Simon and garfunkel song and the entire pub joined in on the la la la's.
Quality days.

That's the one. People were poking their heads in from the street wondering what the hell was going on.

Pre-match pint will be The Torch, a mere stones throw from Wembley Park tube.

No beer for me, driving 5 of us down. Couldn't do it anyway, too nervous. I'll save my beers for the day after celebrations.

Quote: Seventies red "What about 1964?. lol'"


I was there to see Alan Burwell score Rovers only try on a lovely sunny day. Alan's older brother went to the same high school in Hull as myself. I lived in North London then, only a few miles from Wembley stadium. The only other time I have been to Wembley when Rovers played there was in 1980.

I don't often submit many posts these days due to work, age, Grand children commitments and all the other conditions associated with increasing years. However I just wanted to mark the Rovers great achievement in reaching Wembley by just remembering some of the names from the past who contributed so much to the cause but will not be there to enjoy the occasion on Saturday. Wilf and Agnes Spaven, Harry Poole, Davy Elliott, Terry Major. I sat at Wembley in 1964 as a 13 year old when we lost to Widnes. All these people were instrumental, amongst so many others , over the years in starting the climb from the bottom of the 32 team league in 1961 to being semi finalists at Odsal against Huddersfield in 1962. I wish they could all be there on Saturday, like the rest of us but one thing, as they say is for certain, once a Robin always a Robin.

Well Posted sir. We all know someone close who we'd all love to be next to us this Saturday. 29 years is a long long time, well a generation ago since we could share a moment like this. We are the lucky ones who will, so enjoy every moment.

I started going to rovers games when I was 8 with my old man which was 1999, and quickly became hooked and fell in love with the club probably due in no small part to the connection the Dad had with rovers.

I used to listen to him talk about the (relative) success of the late 70's/80's and wonder if I would ever see anything similar. I could see how much it meant to him and the pride just from talking about it. In the late 90's/early 00's he still loved the club just as much and I once asked him if it hurt seeing where we are to where he once saw us in the good times. He said Son, once you pick your team you have to accept that success can take generations to come back around but if you get off the ride or lose your love/support in the bad times you can never appreciate the success as much as much as those that stayed on the ride through it all.
He was one of those shedding tears at full time at Headingly and I was so happy for him and others like him. Obviously I was overwhelmed in my own right and overwhelmed with emotion but a lot of that was happiness for my Dad and I can't wait to share the Wembley experience with him on Saturday.
I have nothing against the supporters who have come along since we got promoted or those occasional fans who are going to Wembley, but I'm over the moon for those 1500 or so who have been there all along, going to Workington and Whitehaven away etc. I hope the whole Rovers family gets to experience something special on Saturday and create this generations own history. Come on you reds.
