.... we've come a long way.

Morgs tells me the lads was training on the club car park when he first started.

Jeez... Neil, Rob, Morgs and the rest must be congratulated... as well as us the 19th man

They were when Webbo turned up. It was Webbo that told the board the pitch needed doing so they could train on a good surface too.

Thats quite deep for you mate

Their lass must've logged on

Webbo will always be a legend at Rovers, in four years we have become the number one RL team in the city, we did it on our own, through hard work and determination, with a great coach, great board and brilliant loyal fans.We never had to merge and sell our identity.

Certain clubs said we would never make superleague and when we did we would go straight back down , but we never ,we hammered our merged neighbours 6-42 to secure our superleague status, saw them empty Hull Citys stadium , shortly after half time, and since then our fantastic board ( made up of fans and ex players) has done us proud, great signings , not afraid to spend cash on decent players , great fans , we are without doubt the top team in rugby league in the city of Hull

wondered how long it would take for hull fc's name to pop up come on

Interesting comment from a new member

FFS, give it a break!

Quite embarrassing that

and if we failed to get promtion we would be struggling massivley and that is a fact

but luckily for the board the gamble paid off

No it wasn't!



What gamble and why would we be struggling massively?

Fair play you have come a long way. Good to see some of you as well feet grounded whilst others continue with their moronic outlook (don't get me wrong FC have their own in the same way)

Congratulations

May it all come crashing down soon

Well for your lot it wont be LONG

Take it easy troops. We ain't won anything yet. We are still pish poor KR until we have some silverwear.

I'm pretty sure the board asked Webbo what was needed to improve the standard of rugby and he said the pitch needed doing.

He was expected back

we payed allot of money just like widnes did that year to gain promotion and as you will no widnes went into addministration a few months after we beat them. the gamble paid off as we hammered the league but finacially we pushed the boat right out to gain promotion.

Learn your history, that's absolute garbage mate.

Widnes didn't go into Admin until 12 months after losing to Rovers, it was after they crashed to Cas in the 2007 GF they struggled.

Spot on Dave, celebrate your success at HKR and what you have achieved rather than trying to measure it constantly against Hull FC.

You have come a long way and you should be proud of it.

i no this as a fact. we go the accounts through the door on the promotion season and it wasnt plesant reading

Correct, they gambled on winning the grand final & getting promotion, when this didn't happen the Chairman called the receivers in.

They went into Admin on 9th October 2007, 2 days after losing to Castleford:

As Jake the Peg would put it: FACT!

Is that an actual 'FACT' or a 'Jake the Peg FACT'. There is a massive difference you know...

So did I and you are exagerating(sp) a lot.
