That's not a quote. That's Hull Live doing what they often doing, paraphrasing, which can take words out of context. They then use the actual quote which I put.

Maybe, maybe not. Perhaps he won't develop into a running half and will be more of an organiser, who knows. The fact remains he's our best option at 6 currently.

Starting to get those butterflies again, now it is almost upon us. I find watching Hull, even in finals with a good team, excruciating and I wish I could enjoy it more, but I am going to be there with my father , who is 91, my kids and prospective son & daughters in-law, so its becoming a proper generational gathering of family, and win or lose it's good to be able to say that after the horrors of Covid 19 not long back. Gotta count our blessings, I ,suppose, just hope we have a real dig tomorrow, that's all we ask.

What's annoying and so frustrating and has been for the past few seasons now is you aren't surprised if we get an absolute tonking and wouldn't put it past them to turn up and win. the problem being they just don't turn up enough.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

I used to feel like that, all week I'd be looking forward to the rugby whether home or away it would be the main thing to get me through the working week, but now it feels like a chore and can't get excited about going. I don't think it's all hull but the general apathy for the game altogether.

Hull won 20-3 in front of 20,500 and went on to win the title.
Bitter sweet for me, as the game got put back a week from Good Friday as Hull were in the CC Semi a Final. The game then clashed with my sister’s wedding, so I missed the match. Had to make do with listening to the game with a Rovers fan in the car park during the Evening Do.

Remember it well, I was a ball boy. I think Gary Kemble and Lydiatt got sent off in that game IIRC, probably not. I
