The next time it is our turn, I just hope it is us being good rather than you being poop. I'll take whatever is on offer, but it'd be nice. And when it turns again, I'd prefer you to have a high than us a low. Obviously, I'll try to belittle whatever you achieve - a little something that will no doubt make it sweeter.

Here is to the possibilities of a fresh, untrammelled future

Yes, it is a long-running joke.

This and his not having a clue about anything are not necessarily mutually exclusive, of course.

Rovers next fixture is always easy, and any victory is due to the failings of the opposition.

Opinion is divided on how funny it is. Jake clearly thinks 'quite'. Most others... well, I suspect that at best, there is a grudging admiration for his persistence.

At least one poster finds it very annoying indeed.

Welcome on to this forum my friend. Feel free to post again.

For the record, there is a whole army of Robins fans on here who agree with you about JTP not having a clue. He's a wind-up nobber from the dark side and he knows it. However, on occasions he deises himself sufficiently to make an insightful post, which still gets his arch nemesis Roversmad to bait back on here. The ensuing interchanges between them lurch from infantile derision to sheer contempt.

The post from JTP on here that prompted you to post is classic shizzle. File it and it's creator under PRAT and move on.

Please use one of the gloating threads on the Hull board. I know you have, but y'know exclusively. MR.

For the record, I'm posting this from the comfort of my own home. Not worried about a bit of rain, but I'm not prepared to "celebrate" epic failure. I believe that to do so is to encourage more failure. Just seen the shots on Look North. Well done to the 4/500 who are clearly are better fans than me & Mrs Stan.

Waste of council funds if you ask me.

Those councillors with their snouts in the trough of free (to them) alcohol and food will probably disagree with you though.

well said!
just how i felt in '06 and '09

Well I enjoyed it, wet through but I wouldn't have missed it

Chester out peacock in! Which diehard was shouting that at the reception? Haha

Didn't quite get the 20 or so black and whites that turned up, and the irony of the Briscoe 5 shirt wasn't lost on me.
Having said that it was quite a cathartic experience and am pleased I went.

Feel free to counter anything in the post

I don't have an arch nemesis on here. The poster you refer to is irrelevant to me and I never respond to anything he/she posts. There is no interchange

The tragic thing is that when Pearson took over at Hull we had their fans come over to the Leeds board telling us how he was going to put Hetherington in his place and how a guy with football experience would make the RL only Hetherington look amateur. He was also going to take him to the cleaners over the Luke Briscoe issue as well as have Hull charge up the table and be challenging for titles.

Skip forward to this weekend and the best thing they've had to celebrate in his tenure is the very same Leeds team who they were going to put in their place doing a number on their neighbours.

There is a picture doing the rounds of some FC fans there with balloons in the shape of a five and zero.
