The atmosphere amongst the Rovers fans was the most restrained that I have known after a derby win. Regardless of that pass (which most of us couldn't see) we knew that we had got out of jail. Walking home afterwards, yes, we were all pleased, but the singing and shouting was far more restrained than usual. It was a really strange feeling after a derby win. The saving grace for the fans was that rovers played below their potential ans won whilst FC played above themselves and lost .... and we take this as a mark of just how far Rovers have come and Hull have fallen.[list=[/list
Quote="Mrs Barista"Hudgell's feedback in the matchday programme (allegedly):
"Fc are a team of proven internationals and an abundance of local talent who will doubtless be looking to redress the balance from earlier in the season and I suppose also to put a dent in our 6-3 record since arriving in super league. Having said that we continue to feel that we have a point to prove. Certainly we have'nt forgotten certain "cheap" comments aimed at us pre-season about supposed financial problems,cancelled pre-season trips and the like.As long as we carry on making progress and building stability results will continue in my eyes to be more important than grade A licences achieved in part on the back of ten years of local monopoly and subsidised first class facilities."
Come on Kath, top that for a 5 star grudgefest.

Quite impressed he can write that down whilst steering the lawnmower at the same time.
