Confirmed as Leeds away and Bulls at home

does that mean we start a week early then.

probably be the opening sky game too

leeds played wakey midweek or on a monday i think, the fixture wasnt brought forward last season

What about 11th Aug?

It's the day before The Glorious 12th

Leeds away must have been set up by Sky for the returning Gaz Ellis, like they did for Longy when we got Saints in the fog. So either Fri 1st or Sat 2nd Feb, have they got undersoil heating at Headingly? Don't want a repeat of a cancellation due to a frozen pitch, speaking of which anyone got an inkling of when we play Catalan away? Just the month will do, or send me a PM

apparently headingley has undersoil heating and ive heard june for catalan

That would do, but surprised if both Hull teams got a June fixture as it seems that KR have got them in June on their "on the road" fixture in Toulouse

They'll be hoping we take our usual 10k then if its an 'on the road' game

Everytime I speak to my rovers supporting chums, they are going toulouse, it must feel like your second home

If our first game is at Leeds we will be the first team to play on they New pitch. Yes under soil heating was put in

ouch sounds expensive for a RL club

That made £6 mill from selling cricket ground to Yorks CC

Don't mind playing leeds first.. They always start soft and the players may have wcc on there minds

P 2 W 0 D 0 L 2.

We're honestly not interested in your wet dreams.

Bring it on!

We have to play them away sometime and they have been slow starters in recent seasons.

We didn't win there last season, so this a free shot as far as I'm concerned.

In the early 80's, Headingley was our second home, time to reclaim that mantle I say!

Besides Wakefield and Bradford in pre season..

we're not interested in the dobbins opening fixtures

It's RLFans worst tipster



I thought you'd think we'd go well with our new fullback:

Bob' brilliant nearly everything he predicts, the opposite happens.

Heres a reply to one of my posts after there lucky win against us in Manchester.

Don't be so sure.

I understand Hull will no longer be playing 2 home games for every 1 away, as they have done in the first half of the season.

It has, it was the first stadium to have it sadly it doesn't work, they cover the pitch I think!

You must have missed the story about the £1mill+ pitch investment, including taking down the old posts that have been cemented in for 30+ years and changed for the crappy plastic ones

why is there a fat french man there called ricky selling plant food to little boys down the local Bistro??
