If it's impacting you to the point where you are unable to enjoy Saturday's events that is a real shame. Personally I'm still on Cloud 9, have watched the game back twice, including the online red button forum and am absolutely loving another major final to attend. And now the monkey's off our backs the potential result is not the subject of dread, just about anticipating the occasion, savouring the build up and hoping it doesn't rain. If we lose, no biggie. If we win, in the words of Dave Woods last year "Oh my word!"

I have to say that although it was great to win yesterday there wasn't quite the same euphoria as last year for me. Getting a bit boring now

For those of us fortunate enough to have attended Elland Road, the Millenium and now Wembley it is getting a bit of a bore now. I might even sacrifice a Wemblety defeat as long as we smash them in the Anzac Stadium.

5 finals in 13 years isn't too shabby. Better than one in 32 I guess, especially when it ends up in a 50 nil humping.
I did see something funny on twitter the other day which said that rovers' solitary CC win was nearer to the end of WWII than it is to now

Different types of boredom, aren't there? Agar turgid play boredom or major final fatigue. I'll go with the latter.

Apparently that's true. Given that I can't find the numbers from yesterday's game, that's my favourite stat of the week.
Why the constant obsession with KR,we played very well and are in a Wembley CC final, yet some seem to think this has any relevance to KR. Enjoy what we achiev d, let KR do whatever they do.

Not a obsession just banter. Every Monday morning when I go into work soon as i see a k.r supporting mate or customer it's straight into it. It's all good fun and makes no difference were in different leagues we both use any results or stat (love the ww11 one) to get the better of it. If anything it's stepped up in originality this year with them beating part timers most weeks. Still being as much fun as ever though. On Saturday when we was singing "are you watching hull k.r " I know they was sat there laughing and already thinking Mondays going to be a rough one as I would. You may not give rovers a second thought and that's fine but for me,my mates and thousands of other hull fans taking the mickey out of k.r is all part of being a r.l fan in this city. It's what makes it different to everywhere else. I love discussing all things rugby and talk to as many k.r fans about rugby as f.c. Hull would be a far duller place for alot of rugby fan if we ignored the dark side.
