Knowing our luck, even if we manage to squeeze by Widnes, Leigh will beat Warrington.

Been to see both your matches away at Leigh this year, not that impressed to be honest icon_biggrin.gif

Was very confident after our match with Leigh last week.

However Hanbury, Craven and Bridge are massive losses for us. The weather wont help either, we always seem to do crap in the wet.

I am hopeful we can win but I think the bookies have it right to put you guys slight favourites!

I don't get your point? Original poster said the Championship hits you hard when you don't expect it, so far it hasn't so the argument holds absolutely no weight whatsoever. Also, we know what to expect having been in this division (with this coach) for so long.

What I meant by my statement is that you have the same attitude as ourselves last year, not going down, we're SL, we'll be ok approach. As a fan, when your team gets relegated to the championship when you're not expecting it, that's when it hurts the most/hits you the hardest.

You seem to think because you beat Fev/Fax comfortably that you'll be fine coming up against us because we apparently 'struggled' to beat them. That's why I brought up the 58-18 scorlines of last year, because they meant nothing when we played Leigh, Hudds etc.

Big game, could go either way.

I'd love it, LOVE IT, if we got up tomorrow.

Put the past to bed, end the agonising uncertainty of the qualifiers and start looking forward with hope again.

Mate, you're wrong on both counts.

So many Widnes fans had/have us for going down because this year just hasn't been good enough, we've not built on what we did the previous year (top 7) and didn't replace Brown until two-thirds of the way through the season and we all know what happened with Rangi.

No Widnes fans 'think we'll be fine against you', we rarely win at Craven Park and as I've already said, you've got a SL side already so it's going to be very hard for us to get something out of the game, particularly as we've lost Hanbury, Bridge & Craven.

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result:

I suggest you go on your own forum then because there's plenty of Widnes fans saying exactly that

What you doing on a Widnes forum and obviously your reading differently than me. Yes always the odd numpty who is clueless but on here 3 Widnes fans including myself do not think this game will be easy? Reading some posts on here the HKR fans think Widnes will be easy beats. I am sure HKR be less confident if lost 3 players in key postions? Fullback, halfback and Centre I see as key postions.

We have decent cover in all 3 and have been without one of each all this playoff series.Abdull Quinlan Minns. Atkins Moss covered half and full back equally well and had numerous players cover Minns at centre.All 3 in squad versus Widnes so you have a point in there. I reckon both sets of fans are of a similar mindset in mainly nervous but with reasons to believe our own team could /should be victorious? On paper I believe we look more potent but on the pitch it remains to be seen if we can live with the speed and fitness that Widnes bring as a superleague side? I remember as a fan feeling the same re Leigh and was just waiting for them to blow up.They didn't and I don't think we will, however it would be most Rover's like if we messed the job up which would lead to an even bigger pressure game week after. Anything is possible ...Fwiw I would play Moss and Atkin but expect both to miss out

Firstly I went on the Widnes forum probably for the same reason you went on the Hull KR forum secondly where are all the fans saying you will be easybeats I don't see any and thirdly I've already quoted what some of your fans have said

I think you'll win today and next week against les cats. The standard of all 4 SL sides in this middle 8's comp has been pretty awful with even warrington not really making any real mark on them. If you don't get promoted you only have yourselves to blame as widnes, leaigh and les cats are all there for the taking IMO.

We need you in SL as we've dropped 4 of the equivalent 6 points we get from you this season

Yeah and where are the Widnes fans saying you are easy beats? I don't think so at all, as I think HKR will beat us.
