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.

Maybe you could link us to these quotes

F.cuk off to the Leeds board and look for them. You're usually a dab hand at dredging up old posts.

Speaking of old quotes , a 10 year old , yes , 10 year old quote being recycled by the queen obsessive.

Big club mentality.

So you weren't joking Right where do I start. You say we were fortunate against Wigan. Fortunate is not a word I'd use for the commitment shown in a game that nobody gave us an earthly of winning without one of our first choice half backs (Kelly). You also say we didn't have to beat anyone else of note to get to the final, Catalans and Warrington 2 teams who, if I'm not mistaken, sit above the "mighty" Hull FC in the current super league table and both of whom have beaten the said "mighty" Hull FC this season. Again, both of these victories without one of our half backs (our captain and main play maker Terry Campese). To your point of one quality player I'm not quite sure who you are talking about. Kelly? Campese? Sio? Maybe Super Leagues top point scorer until the split Mantellato? I'd say we have a couple of below average players at most, I'll keep my opinions of who they are to myself as it's all about opinions. That alright for you?
