I sympathise wholeheartedly with any 'decent' honourable Rovers fans (there are exceptions as this board at times proves) this morning when as I opened the front page of Hull daily Mail sport online there were 6 FC stories and one old measly offering about Dean Hadley visible for Rovers. I'd like to think that all the backing James Smailes gave to our reporter and the fact that at least a dozen people I know (probably many more) lobbied him and the Newspaper Group nationally about FC's continued visibility in the local 'paper' help maintain his presence. I hope Rovers get a reporter (as it will give them something to read about their team and us something to laugh at and of course vice versa) because most of all the game locally regionally and nationally needs as much coverage as possible and the local rag has undoubtably always played a big part in the greatest rivalry in Rugby league.
Any sympathy however ends there
To be honest with you Wilf, I think the fact that you're lot are getting so much exposure in the HDM compared to Rovers is giving some of the fc fans on here delusions of grandeur
Some are actually believing the hype that Dan is spinning, obviously by the end of February when your probably 0 from 4 there will be some fans scrolling back through Dan's articles and wondering where it all went wrong
Thanks for the sympathy and carry on enjoying your rugby, I've no doubt fc will rise up the table at some point, I'm just not sure it'll be that soon though (hopefully)
