Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.
If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com

Quote ="Seventies red"Yes I would especially agree with you on that aspect.
The big build up to the games would start at least one week before and would intensify as time progressed.
I used to work for a large components factory in those days on Hessle road and because of its location the bulk of the workforce were Hull fc fans, which always made it even more important that we win, otherwise life would be unbearable the following week at work, I've even known fans throw a sickie rather than face the aftermath at work of a defeat.

Life around the city centre was also notably different in the week or two prior to the game, the banter in the pubs was constant and even the last buses home (11pm) in the evening would be eventful, with Rovers and Hull fC fans trying their hardest to out sing each other on the way home.
Derby day itself would usually start with people packing out and singing in the pubs before eventually heading of to the grounds which were always packed out to the rafters.
Although the passion of the fans today is still there in the abundance, as ever, I sometimes feel that there is not quite the same intensity and magic about it at the moment and I believe as you do, that to many derbies in a season may be one of the reasons, just my opinion of ">course.'"
Agree with all of that
