So you lot won't be celebrating if you get to Wembley this year then?

Youv'e got to be in it to win it

Don't be silly. Of course we'll be celebrating if our eligible players get us to Wembley.

Will I be happy about getting there yes will I be CELEBRATING about not winning the cup no.

Not sure i can agree with Hull controlled the game Dave.
I thought Spaven controlled it for the opening 20 and it was the 20 minutes after HT when Hull got on a roll that eventually made the difference.
If Hull controlled the game they should have won by far more then 2 points.

Scott Taylor has a big future in front of him if he continues to progress.
I liked the look of the ginner Hull brought off the bench and the Winger was dangerous.

What was most apparent to me is the differing styles between the 2 clubs at every level.
Hull just try to bash their way up the middle whilst Rovers look to get the ball to the 3/4's at the earliest chance.
It was the same in the Academy game on Thursday.

Had it been 2 reserves starting line ups in the purest forms IE no King etc and Rovers with Watts/Mariano/Dee it may well have been an easy victory for Rovers.

I enjoyed the game though and thought the discipline of both sides deserves a mention.

I think we only played that way because of the personal on the pitch, play to your strenghts, when I have seen the Reserves in the past they have played a bit of rugby, dont think the conditions helped either.

Though Spaven was great he is a really nice kid off the field and feel he should be in your 17 for Tomorrow. I would have also had Scott Taylor in the squad.

Also i dont see what the big fuss is about playing Moa, King etc, thats one of the reason you have the reserves, to give your fringe players some game time. The other is bringing the young players through which we are doing with the likes of Briscoe and Nicklaus (spelling), who are both 17.

If's not if we just put these players in the reserves for this game, all these players have been playing for the reserves the past few weeks.

Reserves is an oppotunity to get game time into fringe players mate i agree.

Just making the point that without those 4 from Hull playing last night Rovers would have won by 12-16 points IMO.
Some of the comments about King and Moa ripping Rovers apart up the middle are amusing as id say Moa shouldnt get near your 1st team if that was him on a good day.
Craig Halls body language spoke volumes too im afraid.
Head down, shoulders slumped, he isnt in a good place at the moment.

but then Hull would of had Briscoe, Burnett, Lee or Houghton and G Horne or maybe Whiting thrown in

In fact the only established first teamer i would say is King

If you want to go down that road then Rovers may well have had Mills, Gene,Netherton,I'Anson playing.
