Easty, Easty, Easty. Who's whining and groaning on this thread about refusing to come to CP? I've already confirmed I go every time.
The thread has seen a few Rovers fans moaning about whether to come to the KC, though.

I and many other FC fans have often been chided for our consistent avoidance of Craven Park. Odd that Rovers fans' new-found huffiness about attending the Kc, having previously claimed they would attend no matter what to support their team, coincides with us being 4 points clear with a game in hand. I'm sure these factors are not related and as we go into the derby level on points their appetite will return to its normal levels.

The current table holds no significance for me. I've seen enough quality from rovers this year to be confident that we'll pick up points and finish quite respectably.

After this weekend we'd have played 4 of the top 5. Hull would have played only Warrington and that was at home for the 1st game of the season. I know which fixtures I'd have choosen given half a chance.

Surely the quote of my post you've made says it all. Doh!!

I think we're agreeing. I've implied that both teams are misplaced and of course Mike Smith's prediction is well-documented, so not at all surprised you are so confident. Smashing. Galea back forthe derby too, I hear. Good times at the MS3CP.

Mrs B, quoting Mike Smiths pre-season aspirations and passing them off as gospel is becoming a little tiresome. You have to remember, Mike (despite being CEO) is our equivalent of lucytheconverted, and I wouldn't hold your club to account for any of her innane ramblings.

Does that make him pugwash pal? Makes sense.
Are you coming to the derby, Stanley? You should be confident; as your song goes, you're indestructible, always believe in, because you are Gold. The Kemps or the Hornes , which are the best of each set of brothers? Good derby debate now we're only 2 weeks off. Richard and Martin IMO.
