York is a nice stadium for RL and would make a great weekend away for opposition fans. I’m sure they would be a viable super league side if they could build up the product to attain crowds similar to Huddersfield or Wakey.

I'd argue that we, at least, have tended to get top 3 or 4 finishes more regularly than Hull (obviously not last year) and we then bottle it in the play offs.

Also, is it my imagination, but Hull do seem prone to taking some proper hidings as well - even we have inflicted a couple at their place in recent times?

Well they took an hiding today.

Hull 14-60 Salford.

Can’t see ‘Sack them on tele live’ putting up with TS for much longer if Hull gets another embarrassment like that.

Hull fans pretty much want a complete new team reading their forum, some even suggesting Smith gone before the season is even over. Oh and they got Saints next week on Sky oh joy.

Can't see it, but imagine if they beat saints - would be absolutely hilarious.

To quote Kevin Keegan I would love it.

Total meltdown on Redvee - threads calling Wellens 'Cunningham Mk2', entitled posts saying they should be beating newly-promoted Leigh. The arrogance is horrible!

Said it earlier in the thread, but there's a reason nobody likes them.

It’s almost as if Saints really aren’t as good as people have been making out and it’s the just a cold hard fact that the standard of SL in the last five years is the lowest it’s ever been.

Wow. Not sure what we need to do to get a bit of credit if four consecutive Grand Final wins and beating Penrith in their own back yard isn't enough. We were always going to start slowly given the WCC trip. Woolf only won one of his first five games too and he turned out okay. We might not win SL this season, but a bit early to be ruling us out too. The standard of SL has dropped every year since 1996 because of the impact of inflation and the cap not rising, but it's probably also the most equal SL competition there has ever been too. There are really only Wakefield and Cas as outliers who couldn't beat any of the other teams. Any of the rest could beat any of the other teams on any given day.

Re your first question, act a bit classier as a collective.

You're quick to complain about wire fans having a pop at you on matchdays, but your fans are the biggest instigators and mickey takers, and then cry foul when you get a response.

Have some dignity, enjoy your domination with some class. People might respect you more.
