Bit late coming back to this topic, but Mrs B. has firmly established she can look after herself on here, she doesnot seem to resort to personal name calling, but I must pull her up on her comment of "one-eyed smugness on here", there is a lot of that from the other side of the city.


Much as I love Justin's work for HKR, Mrs B. was spot on with her comments about him !!

Keep rattling the cages Mrs B. it entertains the rest of us.

They prefer insular debates. Mrs B doesn't mind it up her, so to speak, but some other people clearly cannot take it.

Spike Dixon or Lieutentant Hubert Gruber - your choice.

I got there first.

without sounding too northern they cant handle you love

Pale blue doesn't do it for me. We had a very pale blue hooped one a couple of years ago, which I really like (looks great on me, obviously), but was a bit incongruous on the likes of Sam Moa and made the players look a bit, well, fairy-like and unthreatening. Look at Mason in this picture. He looks like his bunions are hurting he wants a sit down with a cup of Yorkshire Gold and slice of parkin to watch a repeat of A Place in the Sun : Home or Away? Not "grrrr" enough for me, I'm afraid.

Why have Rovers not done a proper retro shirt since their return to SL, a proper broad red band on a white background? Madness.

Yes you did - good choice btw.

2008 was pretty traditional. 2006-2008 were all (attempts at) a traditional / classic look. 2009 was a variation that grew on me. 2010 was new and never quite did it for me - a white hoop or vee would have been good, but what was it - a voop?

2010 was hideous. I cannot think of a single redeeming feature of it. I mean just a plain, broad red band. No swooshy red shoulder/side things so it looks like H. Not a thin band, a broad one. Just one, broad, red band, on a plain white background. Nowt else. How difficult can that brief to a supplier be?



Would have said more Wilson than Godfrey. Mild, not bland.

Sure you've got the correct shirt. I liked our 2010 home shirt but the away shirt for me was the highlight simply the best Rovers shirt for many many years.

Found a half decent snap of the away shirt

Isn't the latter the baddie out of Die Hard?

Hmm now where can I store that pic so my wife wont find it

It's a bit like getting Hull to submit 4 or 5 bands of black irregular [ihoops[/i ( ie all the way round - not bars with an irritatingly disruptive stripe down the side) on a white background, similar on the arms, with no purple, grey or gold "Eternal Beau"-y type bits stuck on, to ISC.

Seemingly impossible. (Or at least, once in a pale blue moon.)

Of course, the year both teams get their traditional heads to coincide should be the year we meet in the Grand Final.

Booo. Gruber had the big leather boots. Mmm. Wild, not Mild.

Someone once told me that Scampi Fries don't actually involve scampi but are instead flavoured by dogs called "Scamp".

I thought you weren't allowed green in your kit, offends the fishermen apparently!

Whats that got to do with Hull KR.

Historically Hull where supported by the fisherman Hull KR the dockers IIRC. So think your confusing us with yourselves.

its about time i was mod.

If I was you I would crop the left bit off.

Im not following you.

Possibly refering to the "young Lady"

at the front of the que

Then he will be getting a visit from my wife so she can give him a slap.

In that case, no need to hide it, use it as your wallpaper and tell the Wife you've got lovely pic of her on your desktop

You mean pass the buck.
I like it
