Maybe we will maybe we won't? Don't get where you're coming from with that?whatever the result next Saturday your team is in a good position. A few of you guys seem to have a victim mentality when in truth few would begrudge it if you won promotion.Could/should be party time for you guys start enjoying it

Its rugby league Craig..All Super League teams, will as we keep getting told be playing for their jobs.You could probably say the same about Championship teams.It's all about how you perform on the day,not status.

I agree..its a results business doesn't matter how you win

IF we beat Leigh and Leeds beat Salford do you reckon we will be safe

I would assume barring a disaster that if we beat Leigh then we'll be fine. Keep professional and we should see wins at London and Featherstone and that would give us 10 points and a reasonable points difference (which could be key).

As much as I hate HKR i want you to hammer Leigh as i hate their arrogance when it comes to this time of the year.

Re: Middle 8 Fixtures : Tue Aug 30, 2016 11:33 am  

What arrogance? You are about a year late with that attitude. If winning games is classed as arrogance though then fine.I have not seen any arrogant statements made by our current coach or owner, I can't speak for the odd idiotic fan on these boards however.

edit: Ah you are a Hull FC supporter using your 'hatred' of Leigh as an excuse to support your neighbours so you don't get lynched by your mates

Putting myself in the Leyther's position for a moment, I can quite understand them being annoyed, they've won their league what four or five times on the bounce and still haven't been promoted. They've got a great new stadium, appear to have enough money to be viable in SL and have serious designs on improving as a club.

The 3 times before I have sympathy with them, last year they had a chance, seemingly a pretty good one going into the play offs, and completely blew it. This was on the back of a lot of spouting and bravado. I agree with demonuk though they seem to have learned their lesson and are going about it a lot quieter this year.

Saturday will be a tough game for us, but (hopefully) we seem to have turned a corner in the last couple of games and are playing with a teaminess and hopefully put in a professional performance.

A decent ref for the game - Rob Hicks. Plus, we've got our (Leigh) favourite video ref -James Child. (was it four or five Salford 'tries' he disallowed in our game with them? )
