Its 'roll your sleeves up' time!
Hull FC are away at the Huddersfield Giants tomorrow. They are bottom, we are 2nd from bottom! No messing about now lads, we need the win!
(Also good luck to Leeds Utd this afternoon, come on lads the time has come for you to stop messing about as well!)
Watching Saints stuff Warrington last night on the TV I wondered what it must be like to support a team like that, where you hardly ever loose and win everything? Would it become boring? Surely you cant enjoy the big wins as much, as they pile one on top of the other! :)
There is one plus to supporting a team that can spectacularly self combust at times, and that is when things do go well, the pleasure is immeasurable. So that's good innit?
So I'm waiting for a bit of that pleasure tomorrow afternoon!
Over to you then lads..........

True support is about choosing your colours and sticking to them. If success comes thats great it puts us on a high but picking ourselves up during bad times is charactor building.
Lets face it any sad anorak can choose whoever is doing well and gloat but do they have real feelings for their club.
Take Soccer how many life long Chelsea supporters do you bumb into compared to a few years ago, I'd say quite a lot more. I won't even start on the Red Vermin with their massive obsessed media influenced support.
Rugby is the same, I don't seem to meet nowhere near as many Wigan fans than a few years ago.
I think however our (including Phil) Clubs do we can hold our heads up high. We deserve to shout it from the roof tops when they do well because we'll still do it when they don't.
true, im proud to be a robin always have been always will be, now to answer the bit about whats it like to support a team that wins nearly every week yes it does get boring, and im not taking the p*** there i am on about the 80s when we were top of the rugby league world so often, I used to go to watch rovers expecting to win every week especially at home, and i must admit the games did get a little more exciting when we started to slip a little, it was always a little better going when you hoped you were going to win and not going with the result already decided in your own head.
It must be hard for the players mentally, that's where Saints are really good, they can keep a run of form going for yonks. Thats the hard thing, keeping the intensity going. Of course up to now the FC haven;t had any bloody intensity to keep going!
But watching them trudge off on Sunday, they knew they were crap. I think there will be an improvement today. (hopefully)
