Fickle bunch aren't they, when we were beating them regular they didn't want to know the derby games, now it's different. If they'd have had their way earlier this season with the 'Radford out' demands where would they be now.

2nd?

So, I take it from that, you don't know then.

So that's 15 times Rovers have just wanted it more and 15 times Hull have demonstrated their superiority, eh?



Fwiw, I vaguely recall from the Rovers official history that Hull had a longish run, when they were much the stronger of the two teams in the 1950s, and Rovers won a few in row in the 1960s as fortunes for both clubs changed.

I doubt there will have been a longer winning run in the 15 or so years you've been a club

Sad when that's all you have left. If it were the case then how embarrassing for such an established club with all your tradition to be being beaten on and off the pitch by us new boys !

This coming from the lot that caved in to the Chester Out demands?
Seems to be doing an unbelievable job at Wakey. Where could you have been?...

Do tell. Where could we have been?

He had his chance......He failed. If he is that good a coach, then where was this miracle he's achieving at Wakefield when he was with us?
We'll see how good he is next season when he signs his own players and gives them his type of pre-season.

He didn't buy into peacocks 5 year grand plan, seems to be doing ok at wakey, maybe the dobbins got rid of the wrong one?

Some coaches and clubs just aren't the right fit. For whatever reason Chester at Rovers didn't work, he's gone to a new club with probably a similar squad in terms of ability, and everything has just clicked. They scraped a couple of good wins and have ridden a wave of confidence since.

I don't think it was a bad decision to get rid, although that depends on who his long term replacement is I guess.

Yeah he did great with us last year when peacock wasn't here

Spot on him been a Wakefield lad and fan he certainly was a better fit for them be interesting when we play them in a couple of weeks

Pretty much spot on, he was rubbish with us well before Peacock came along and the team has showed improvement since he left. I got the feeling he lacked respect with us and seemed lost in the role. He's gone into a team that has been set up and had to just instill a bit of belief. The proof will be how he handles adversity and if he can build for next year. Don;t begrudge the guy his current success but him staying with us was not an option.

Did HULL FC win at the weekend, we seem to have some strangers on hear I bet they say they have been fans all their life been to every derby since they were in there nappy s and just thought they would pop on hear to see how we are

Chester could not handle the pressure it got to him especially with Hull FC doing well it was too much for him you can't hide either side of the river He should never have been given the head coaches job. He lost the job at Rovers when he said the Waky game was not a must win game,every game is a must win game or why bother turning up?
Fare play he is doing well at Waky but watch what happens if and when the bubble bursts he will collapse again.
With regards to the post yes it is going to be a hard run in but I agree get all the bodies back and a full team on the field we will be ok don't forgot we only just got beat by without doubt the best team in the competition and top of the pile Hull FC they have bought well and not only that blended well give credit where it is due if we aren't good enough to do what they are doing then I hope they win it. If we were equal to them it would be great for me if we finished top and them second they are from Hull our city support your team but give them credit.

chester is benefiting from being given a free hand at wakey to do what he wants. At rovers there are far too many people interfering where they have no business to

How do you know this information then. Or is this just your usual made up bull!
How do you know how much freedom he had/has at his previous and current job?!

He's a Hull fan. They know all things Hull KR.

Or he is now restricted with Brian Smiths team, coaches and structure. He's had no time to implement any real changes and has a pretty much full strength squad. Lets see how he does once he has to build his own squad

Do you mean like the 7,000 "strangers" that turned up at Caravan Park when you got promoted into Super League, that type of stranger??

Doesn't that happen to every club yours included

As opposed to the one that finished bottom of the league last season?

Keep smiling, for 5-10 minutes on Sunday some of your fans looked like they were enjoying the match. Shame this one lasted 80 minutes, just like the one on Good Friday.

I think the original question sounded quite genuine. Of course, many on here may not be remotely bothered at the moment, however gloating after a Derby victory goes with the territory. I think you once named a bar after one of your Derby victories?
