Fast forward to now, here we are at the begining of a journey, a journey few would have believed possible even 2 years ago. The first season was a struggle with only the odd good result, but we enjoyed every moment of every game, and we managed it, we managed to stay in the elite competition.
A plan was put in place, survive, consolodate, challenge, a plan many saw as a pipe dream, a plan many thought unachievable, a plan many expected to fail, a plan that Neil Hudgell, Justin Morgan and everyone involved in this great club believed in. Now no one can dispute that the plan outlined has come to fruition, we are indeed now challenging for our place in history, challenging doesn't mean winning, it means exactly that, challenging.
Whatever happens during our first foray in the playoffs, i will remember what we where watching 5 yrs ago, i will enjoy this journey to it's end, wether it be short lived or fruitful, as i can see many more jouneys ahead, each going further, each getting better.
So everbody enjoy tonight, get behind the lads on the field and back them with all your heart and all your soul no matter what the result.
A new era is here
We are Hull KR and we are back

Not sure I can take the excitement for the rest of the day without a little bit of wee seeping out...
