Like i said people rarely remember the losers in finals .
Ask Hudgell if he would prefer to reach Wembley and lose or not reach Wembley at all. He'll explain it to you I'm sure. Would have thought it obvious myself.

You keep living in the past sonny
Neither have you despite your mergers etc, in fact if you want to be pedantic we have had the greater success over the last 30 year period even if it may be only slightly more when refering to titles and trohies won. This depite us been in the doldrums over a large part of the ninetees and early millenium,but dont take my word for it ,go take a look at the record books.

Perhaps if the full, unedited (non-fc) question was.... Mr Hudgell, which would you prefer Hull KR to do - (like the monochrome mob) lie, cheat, bend the rules and plead ignorance as a defence and reach a final, or (like Rovers) be honest, decent and reach as far as possible in the cup, being rewarded on your teams performance over 80 minutes of rugby?

It depends if you class winning second tier trophies as success
