  1. For Hull KR the best £6000 they ever spent on a player and the greatest player I have ever seen player for Rovers, The Dodger, Roger Millward.
  2. Received my discount code from Hull KR about 3 weeks ago, after having to ask for it. Submitted the code to Superleague+ but checking my credit card statement they have taken the full price of £129.99, it automatically renews each year. Contacted Superleague+, they will not use the code, because it's after the renewal date. Asked about cancelling and a refund of my subscription but because I have watched one game on this year's subscription they won't refund.
  3. Went to this match with my Dad, who used to play for BOCM, British Oil and Cake Mills, in the 50's, one of the many works teams in those days. It was played on rugby and football fields on the northern edge of Hull, now built on.
  4. My Wife and myself enjoyed the trip over to Saints on Saturday, I know the result helped, £1 each on the club coaches. Before the game, had a great chat with some of the older Saints supporters, who remember the games back in the 60's, like us pair of old codgers. We were talking and a couple of points came up, between us all and the lack of brain cells now, we couldn't remember, so perhaps someone can help. Did Van Vollenhoven play his last game for Saints at Hull Kr's old Craven Park? I was at the game and seem to remember it was a low scoring game. I also remember being at Knowsley Road and Dave Chisnall was sent off for belting, of all people, Clive Sullivan. I don't think any of us got the correct answers between us. I like meeting up with the older supporters of other clubs. It's great to remember some of the older players.
  5. I've found Superleague+ to work well and think it's great value for the 12 month deal at £130 I got it for. Don't have Sky and being able to watch the game again, after you've been at the game live, is good. I use my phone to cast it onto the tv and had no connection or drop out problems. It does the job for what my Wife and myself watch.
  6. When I was a youngster in the early 60's, they used to play the Hull Kr v Hull Derby on a Christmas Day and the Dad's and Grandad's had usually been given those small cigars, those in a tin, was it Mannekins, as a present and it was that smell that I remember.
  7. Our Son used to live in Melbourne, met a NZ lass and he now lives in Christchurch NZ. We've been over to both to both cities and are going to Christchurch in December for 2 months. Melbourne is a great city. Great layout and easy to get around. Melbourne Storm ground is walkable from the city centre but they have a great tram system. If they choose these cities for World Cup venues we would recommend them to anyone. Christchurch is a rugby union area but it's a great area to visit. New Zealand is a fantastic country to visit.
  8. Rovers lose Hadley to a HIA in the first half and Ryan Hall off second half with calf injury. Kept scoreless in the second half but they defended and somehow won it. Great battling spirit by Rovers.
  9. Lead story on our local Look North about Lachlan Coote and his decision to retire. Speaks about how he was starting to forget things and after a scan, they found a bleed on his brain. Very emotional when he sat in front of the specialist, with his wife, and he was told, that's it, you have to finish. He's done the right. He comes across as such great bloke but as he said, he has to think of his and his families future.
