Thats the key for me.Similar completion rate,good discipline and minimal errors should see us win comfortably.
HKR will start fast as usual so expect them to score first with a quick shift to one of their wings but keep the pressure and build pressure like we did at Leeds with good kicks into the in goal and they will crack.
Many people said Leeds were poor but if you watch the game again they are and will be a decent team but once we took control of the game they couldnt live with us.
I expect the same on Friday even with three changes.

Unfortunately I expect FC to win.Really hope you don,t, but your pack I fear will do too much damage,even without Ellis and Ma.u, plus lets be honest your backs are good, just hope Connor keeps his knees and elbows to himself and his mouth shut. Rovers have an almost new team that will take time to gel,plus the awful loss of Mose who was our biggest forward and a key member of our pack. Parcell missing is also a blow. That said,nothing is a given, but FC should win.
My concern is for us(Rovers) to avoid the bottom four,that may seem negative, but after the recent seasons that would be a plus.
Injuries will play a big part and we have had a ridiculous run of them for four years,it,s time for it to stop.
The team we have, will I think surprise a few and your team with what has been assembled should be top four minimum but luck does play a part and if you don,t you will seem to have blown it.
Hoping for a good game, no injuries,and a Rovers win. Lots of your posters think we are rubbish.Really hope we prove you wrong.

I'd be smashing the 5/1 if I was a Rovers fan.
Heart ruling head possibly, but still smashing it.

But Rovers have Tony Smith, not Richard Agar, and we have Lee Radford.

Is rain forecast?

You're missing 3, we are missing 2. You have a turnaround advantage of course. Derbies are difficult to call, I think we all have enough experience to recognise that.

No. I've seen it posted that we'll be found out when it's not a slog in the mud. And also that we can't play in the rain. Doesn't bode well either way.

I know it's a stretch, but could you ever imagine that the likelihood is that the best team on the night will be the probable victors?

And that it might be us, or it might not, depending on some things within our control and other factors without.

Injuries, sendings off, shocking officiating, bottles and flares thrown from the North Stand.
Crazy, I know, but it's like, anything could happen.
