I wouldn't, if we win on Thursday and be back as an evil Hull troll.

I'm cursed with a photographic memory, I also recall your profession and subject.

Yes, I is a scary Il Terrorista Goose...

But we like you over here.

Even from Thailand Dave K offered more insight and worth than most of the other tourists from t'other side.

So true. If Hull win this game, I anticipate an almighty reaction against recent posting trends. It'll be 'nothing's really changed, just not good enough, hopeless away from home...' on here and 'corner turned, and if we can just turn the narrow defeats into wins...', over yonder.

Ah, the joys of chasing 8th

I'll have a little bet we don't get nilled this time!

I'll go on record now as saying that we played well at Wire but were a little unlucky on some decisions and lost to a team that were a bit better that us.

At The Three Eyed Fishes Gaff we dominated for large periods of the game but they did all the little things a lot better than us and were value for the win.

I didn't go to Wakey.

All in all, I don't think we've been awful on the road, just not good enough.

All this talk about Rovers possibly/easily doing Hull is a bit reminiscent of 2010 ... we went into that game full of confidence having steamrollered Leeds the game before with our Clinton all dominating juggernaut mobile heavyweight super pack at that time. All went to pot that night .. ending with Briscoe/Fox etc. Still, play off win healed the wounds that year. 2012 too, Radford n all running over the top of us. In short, we've produced some right frep @ the stadio KC when the talk has been about us prior.

I don't think Wilkin had the pleasure of a playing in a proper derby, hence tripe like this:

I have two upper West tickets (unreserved for sale) cost me £15 each from Groupon, but will sell the pair for £20. If interested send me a PM.

I'm not sure tbh. Beating you will be enough to make some of our fans happy, but moral is lower than the Agar days atm. Personally, whilst I'd obviously be happy with the win, I would still be over the moon to see Radford get his marching orders.

It's funny though. Whoever wins this game will be ahead of the other in the table (unless it's a very close Hull win). Yet reading the two respective forums, you lot are giddy with excitement and our forum is like Armageddon.

Are our expectations way higher than yours, or does it just show that sport fans are very fickle?

Probably a bit of both really. Most rovers fans are quite realistic in our expectations although we do have some who go over the top at times. Whereas as a non Hull FC supporter, it seems as though most of your supporters feel they have a god given right to be successful rather than looking at things realistically. All just my opinion of course.

I think Rovers fans current levels of expectation are quite low, but the optimism is based on performances thus far and not necessarily results. We can all see what the team are trying to acheive and (with a couple of notable exceptions) there is improvement game on game. We also had a tick list of items to sort:

Get a replacement hooker - Done
Tie half backs to longer deal - Done
Replace Weyman with big prop - Done
Replace Bailey - What you've never had, you've never missed.
