| We've been crap at home in front of the cameras. The only thing to take heart in is the fight baxk in the 2nd half against Hudds.
If the RFL take action against Peacock and Cockayne after we've already lost Greebwood, the dubious drop goal and woeful refereeing by Hicks in the 1st half especially, then I fear for us.
We have sleep walked into the mid 8s, coasted in some of the mid 8s game and the game when we could have ended it before the MPG we did nothing for 40 mins.
With all those facts in mind, I'm bricking it.

We've been crap at home full stop. 4 home wins all season. One of them was against Batley.
Yesterday was the 7th / 8th home game settled by 2 points or less. We've only managed to win 1 of them.
You rely on your halves to guide you home in tight games. Campese & Kelly have managed 1 home game together in 2017. Both went off injured.
Marsh can't run a game. Campese can't run. Kelly can't be trusted.
...I am also bricking it.

I can certainly understand I would be also if reversed, the biggest worry I can see for you is losing greenwood to injury if he is unavailable this week and peacock touching ref which a number of pics have been floating around on SM. he would be big loss as e is a leader and talker on the field something you need desperately, I still you will win even without these 2 players but it would make it closer I think

| You lads seem very confident. Please, please under estimate us.
Salford back on form today (top eight material save for Marwan`s penalties) so please write us off. At last they looked up for it.
Michael Dobson is very much looking forward to the match. Josh Griffin Newly signed for Hull FC also.
Relax boys - thats what we want you to do. Salford absolutely nothing to lose now.

I hope the management print this off in giant print and stick it on the dressing room wall, especially the bits about Dobson and Josh Griffin relishing returning to the Lightstream stadium.
It may at least go some way to blowing away any bits of complacency that they may harbour.
Above all i hope Webster and the players start to realize before Saturday that nothing short of a [uFULL 80 minute display[/u will do, not twenty, not 40 or 60, but the full 80 minutes.
Above all, stop giving away cheap possession in your own 20 or 30 metre zone with ridiculous passes that are never on.

Any Rovers fan with their faculties intact are bricking it and fearing the worst, you won't find many complacent fans round here apart from a few doing a bit of fishing

| Most of Hudds tries came from our mistakes. Just think if that first lucky intercept try hadn't happened by us pushing too hard and not respecting the ball. Same for the Charlie knock on.
I can't see it changing next week. Both teans will be nervous, and we may be worse after Hudds. Either that or it might inspire us.
I think Kelly is still a MASSIVE question, no matter what we think. This is SL survival at last chanxe saloon. He's probably not match fit at the mo, but does he give us that one small spell of magic that gets us all home? If nothing else, with Kelly AND Campo on the field we look more dangerous and make teams think twice, even though it may justvbe an illusion. Marsh and not even Blair in the halves gives other teams something extra to worry about. If we win, fine, but uf we lise and he doesb't play, we will ALL be questioning the decision.
Kitchen sink time I'm afraid, not matter what has gone on behind closed doors.
I will support the team ad get a season pass next yar regardless. I was a season holder during the dark days, and it was tragic. I don't relish the future if we head back there again.
Anyone deluding themselves that we'll definately win needs to open their eyes to reality. We need to channel the same nerves and spirit we had at Widnes 10 years ago. We are now a championship side vying for promotion, it is the ONLY way to see this game.
But on current form, as I stated before.....bricking it.

| The only odds I can find have us 8/13 and Salford at 6/5.
Dunno if I'm surprised by that. Disappointing as the defeat was, we did run Hudds close I suppose, and we are at home. Not sure I'm quite as confident as Joe Punter though.

Doubt it. I don't believe in conspiracy theories. Just inept officials and our erratic form.

Try to look at it the other way. We are already a Champ side trying to be promoted. We need to cheer them on and get enthusiastic. Looking at it any other way is just too depressing.

FYI, the KC was built on the back of a huge Council windfall following the sale of Kingston Comminications. Hull KR also got offered the KC, but turned it down. Understandable due to it being in the West side of the City. Hull more than pay their way at the KC.
Rovers have been looked after by the Council with NCP. The original ground design was poor as they tried to replicate the old CP, but failed to match the atmosphere of the old stadium. Slightly improved now, but always felt they should have built something similar to the HWJ stadium.

Who paid for your stadium? Hull pay about 15 grand a week in rent. How much do hudds pay?

We were smart- we pay a rental based on the number attending- so about a tenner a week.

Speaking from last year's experience it definitely will be. There is no elation in the victory, just out and out relief!

Agreed. I've been fortunate enough to see my team in Cup finals and Grand finals and the build up is excitement mixed with a few nerves.
The MPG is completely different. It was just awful. The week leading up to it and the day is just filled with dread. I didn't enjoy one minute of the game. Even had we won i would have been saying the same. It's just an awful experience and it's even worse if you lose
I wish you luck!

| Agree with above 2 posts - horrible week and awful game to attend. No pleasure in the process at all. Having been there last year and won, you would think that would make it a pleasurable experience? Not at all, a bit of short term relief maybe (sorry Matron!), but that's about it. Relegation battles over a full season I have lived with and even enjoyed, because the rub generally works itself out equally over 8 months. The MPG is just a terrible example of a marketing persons concept of a 'thrilling idea'. I won't be watching it, don't take any pleasure in seeing other people's disappointment - and just watch how much the cameraman seeks out younger supporters on the losing side, hoping to find some inconsolable fan shedding heartfelt tears at their favourite teams demise.
Not for me, Sky and the RFL can stick their MPG where the satellite dishes won't pick up the signal.
Good luck to the Robin's, either way it will be all over this time next week and that isn't a bad thing at all.
