Think it would be good to see the next episode of the BBC program featuring the Mighty Robins.

If you look at how much has changed over the past 20 years it is amazing.

I remember going to Highfield at the start of the season a few years ago, its some where near Knottyash, It was boiling that day. The crowd was 176 and 150 was from Rovers, the other 26 was wives and friends from Highfield.

There was 1 stand and 1 turnstyle. The girl thanked us for coming and then served us coffee at half time.

It was the poorest ground I have ever been too and that includes the Boulevard and Far Town.

Has any one got The original Trouble at the top on DVD I will make a contribution to Rovers to Aus trip if anyone can do it. Cheers

Seeing as we're now doing reasonably well (certainly in comparison to when that programme was filmed) it wouldn't really be "Trouble At The Top" would it.

Runcorn.

Fartown.

Its not success either! Still would love to see a re-run.

I have.

Brilliant documentary that, great feeling watching it back to see how the club rescued itself from near-oblivion.

The sight of Hull having half the East Stand and going wild winning at our place on their march to the title was hard to watch years ago when we were in such dire straits, never could have imagined how competitive we would become with them from 2007 to the present day.

Anyway a superb watch, feel we still owe a lot of thanks to the administrators for keeping us out of the hands of people like Wilby.

Edward Klempka = Hero who saved Rovers from oblivion

Indeed.
If the admin's hadn't quickly got wise to the irish (Wilby) mob we would have been bought and disposed of in quick fashion.
Neither us or FC came out with flying colours as both clubs in and around that period (Our chairman and FC's owners) tried their damned hardest to see each other off.
Wilby (Lloyd) tried to buy us on the cheap with the line 'there will only be one club in Hull' so it obvious what his/their plans were, Our chairman tried to get rid of FC by whipping up votes denying them entry into the second tier when SL said 'well you can't stay here' neither plan worked thankfully.

Was that the one where the pitch resembled a beach??

Nahh that was Craven Park

=#FF0000Edit-Sorry mate but that has to go-RW

Fantastic watch that, both clubs are pretty much unrecognizable from that video! funny what can happen in 14 years!

Less then 14 in all honesty. 10 years certainly for Rovers as from 2007 we where a changed club. Hull from even earlier then that point. Certainly 2005.

Any chance you could upload it onto you tube roofs, there is only 1/3 on there

love trouble at the top,love wilby,love edward klemp and love tiger for putting the vids on that world famous video sharing site !!!!

Never get bored of watching it anywhere.

Very interesting stuff, how things have changed!
Any chance of part 3 being on there though, got through the first 2.

Re the derby match footage on there (presumably it'd be on part 3), just remembered the Hull fans in the East Stand turning up with paper plates to rip the pee out of our Wembley win a month or two earlier, barstewards.

Part three up now.

He's HIV positive IIRC and in a bad way health wise...................Shame!
