I've trawled through pages of rubbish on the Hull SL board about the so called robbery at the derby. Are they saying that Silverwood saw a perfectly good pass and immediately decided for no apparent reason to give a forward pass? Of course not,rightly or wrongly he made the call and we have to assume that he gave a honest decision based on what he saw in that brief split second. Unless some one suggests there was a darker motive that can be the only conclusion. I've even seen suggestions that we follow the example of American (so called) football and have coaches challenges! The beauty and agony of sport is the drama of sometimes getting things wronng and whether not you are the beneficiary or on the wrong end of the decision is what makes live sport so brilliant and dramatic. Learn to live with it!

Like i have said Rich had a great game reffing, and that pass was at least a metre forward, ive watches it eight times and it was 100% forward, Rich got it spot on.

After the amazing dummy spit by your coach earlier in the season with regards to Thaler and the reaction of most of you on here I'm amazed you had the cheek to post this
The funny thing about this whole debacle is that he wasn't even wrong! The pass was forward! Get over it!
You would also have to look at the amount of 'line-balls' that get let off nowadays. I reckon you can safely say that if your side are penalised for giving a forward pass, you can pretty much guarantee it went forward!
To be fair it's the only thing the FC supporters can latch onto as far as salvaging any pride from another derby defeat. They nearly scored off an illegal play. WOW!
If anything it should have been a Rovers penalty, unless you can say Craig Hall 'accidentally' passed it forward.

Well said , the Dallas Cowboys would have been proud of it.

You were outplayed for most of the game. The decision was a turning point but who knows what would have happened if it had been given. You may well have won anyway. To claim it was forward shows just how biased you are.

I'm not 'claiming' anything pal. The pass was forward, it was a forward pass, Raynor received the ball as the pass went forward, Hall passed it forward. The ref blew up for a forward pass, IT WENT FORWARD!!
It's only cos the ball was grounded you're crying about it now anyway. Still, funny to see you lot clambering over each other thinking you might possibly have a glimpse of winning a derby game.. Meanwhile on Craven Park a scrum was being formed, and if we're all being honest with each other that might have made you feel a little bit silly.

Thanks for proving what I already knew, your talking cack.
If your being honest you know full well it wasn't forward and you know in both derbies this season you have been hanging on for the win. Fair play for getting them both and being a full 10 points better than us over the course of 160 minutes of rugby.

Or 7 league positions better after 1760 minutes of rugby, but if it makes you feel better to look at it your way, you do that
