The game was pretty intense and no quarter given and all that, up to the point when we dished up some slack play and you guys punished us with 18pts in no time without a hand been laid on you . This kinda' broke our spirit on and off the pitch. Our bench was also not particularly strong, add the combo of Eden's injury/shake up thereafter whilst also playing periods with 12 men, probably all took there toll in the 2nd half. The scoreline maybe didn't reflect the closeness of the teams, but we have only ourselves to blame for a bit of that.

Hard fought Derby which was turned on it's head in 6 minutes, to be fair to Rovers they never gave up and we could not rest easy until the final try from Briscoe. Thought Rovers coped pretty well with the loss of Lovegrove & Eden. For us Lineham was not having one of his better games when he got injured and Whiting did his usual solid emergency cover. Less said about Burns the better.

I just don't understand the OP. We lost, it was our teams fault or FC's better play. Yes we got some rubbish descisions but so did FC. the officials missed lots of forward passes by both teams. Rovers were by far the better side in the first half but FC hung in kept it close & upped their game & we did not respond. The three quick try's (that from the East stand looked pretty poor from our side) did for us. just lets move on & get ready for Leeds.
The other sour point for me was the abuse & vitriol thrown at the FC cheer leaders (it wasn't harmless banter) as well as the howls of delight from the usual morons when young Lynham got hurt makes me wonder about coming to games, I love this sport & the Robins but some of the fools that have attatched their self to our club are starting to spoil the game for me.

You're not alone in this. Unfortunately, we too have a section who think you should hate everyone not wearing Black and White and I would think all other clubs have the same problem.

As you say it takes away the pleasure of watching the greatest game when its accompanied by some of the greatest idiots.

Beverley red I think it was a Piss take

Are you enjoying your 6 weeks holiday? Most embarrassing post I have ever read!

I read something interesting yesterday. Apparently HKR have been awarded the most penalties in SL this season...and the least..........Hull FC.

It's a conspiracy I tell ya!!!

ps - if thats wrong, i've not checked. Just something I read.

But Stevo said it was. Thats the oracle right there.

& there wasn't any forward passes either, the momentum rule apparently.

Change the word "awarded" to "conceded" and you have a factual answer.
