My god, I have my name in lights.

The last time I was in a little gang was many many years ago in Primary school

Thanks for that

.

Just for the record, can I say that I am really really pleased that we won and that I in no way EVER take some kind of perverse pleasure out of watching OUR team lose. Never have and never will. I want us to win just as much as you do, honestly, I really do, believe me.
So big licks to all involved in this afternoon's win at a ground which has proven difficult for us in the past. A big shout to everyone (players and coaches

) who played their part in securing two valuble points.

Of course this still doesn't alter my opinion about the long term suitability of the head coach, but I think we should let it rest for a while don't you eh.



(Damn, I've gone and done it again have'nt I





).

Oh Yes PLEASE

....I do not actually post pro-Aagr posts, I just respond on occasions...For the record I was not too happy about the extension, however I am prepared to get behind him and I have started to believe he can do a job, well I have kinda convinced myself he can

Sigh.

Its the concept of winning comfortably at half time and going on to continue the performance in the second half

Ill take a 50-0 win against wigan please

Thank you, lets call a truce eh. Well I will if Jake (our leader) will let me



Seriously, I think its time we drew a line under this before we send everyone else into a coma. I would also like to apologise for calling you delusional the other night. I was tired (at work) and it was a bad joke which then back fired badly before promptly escalating rather quickly beyond my control.
So sorry, once again, for any offence I may have caused.
I'll be in trouble with Jake & Junior now, no doubt, for consorting with the enemy

I'm right so far

Ah right so you made that bit up then? I knew I hadn't seen any of them teams 30-0 up at half time and go on to win 60-0. Just seems daft to have said it.

I'd imagine when Wigan got spanked 70-0 & 75-0 by leeds and saints a while back the half time scores would have been in the vicinity of 30-0

No worries, I can be a tad sensitive as you may have noticed

...I have no problems with your opinions tbh...At the end of the day we have one thing in common Hull FC

It was an example of a general score that happens when a team is finished off in the second half. It was simply double the score of our first half. I guess ill have to spell everything out for you in future

Far be it from me to keep a thread on topic, but we had a wow of a first half. I know Quins are a poor side but our pack with O'Meley, Fitz and Tickle was transformed from last week, and Berro and Washy had their best 40 minutes together I can remember. Sam was fantastic today, dragging defenders in, punching holes and a couple of great offloads. As tends to happen, we abandoned the attractive rugby of the first half in the second, but always had too much and they were piggybacked up the pitch by the ref. Lauaki's penalty, which led to a try, was very harsh - he couldn't get his arm out, thought he was going to get penalised, and in trying to get his arm free the ball got dislodged and they got a penalty. Couldn't win. Some entertaining stuff in the first half and last 10 minutes though and pretty happy tonight.

You don't annoy me in the slightest. I think you're amusing

So it is possible to play without our half backs on the island then?

sharp,kear and mccrae!!!!!

Against a poor team and with the "halves" playing behind a full strength pack, it's possible.

Possible but rare as we've seen plenty of times recently

What I was pleased about was that all the team seemed to have lifted their game.
The first half we blew them away.slacked off in the opening bit of the second half when things just didn't quite go right. Thought Fitz was obstructed quite blatently in the build up to their 2nd try. The full strength Pack can obviously lay a game winning platform for temporary half back pairing so what would it be like with our proper half back pairing available? I hope to see it sometime! An enjoyable day out, just could have done with a few less renditions of "That song" considering it being a bit close to home for our opposition.

How many were there from Hull?

Very difficult to judge as the stadium is so empty.
But I would guess about half the crowd + or - 20% were from Hull. 95% of the noise was from us though!

to be fair i think its the rule now that "They shouldn't have there hand there" as seen in the Wigan v Leeds match

Too right. You can only ever come down in favour of the attacking team in those situations

One of the guys on the stag do was wearing a Rovers shirt, most of the renditions were aimed directly at him.

Was the stag do the same lads who were on a stag do last season in France? The stag was dressed as a hkr cheerleader.

Yeah I know that but I was glad when one rendition stopped half way through for us to get on cheering the team scoring!
