Maybe not. However in the present it hurts you all.

The proof is on this forum.

If it doesn't hurt your fans for finishing 8th then it shows how low your ambitions (and prospects) as a club are.

The fact remains that in 2021 Rovers finished in the playoffs FC didn’t. Fans can cast around for reasons to explain FC’s dismal showing but it does not change anything. In 2022 Rovers won two of the three derbies and scored more tries than FC in Newcastle. Only poor goal kicking prevented a 3-0 wipeout. I’m sure FC fans can find many reasons for this as well.

Phenomenal achievements. You must be bursting with pride. Best couple of seasons since you last won a trophy nearly 30 years ago.

Albeit with our coach in charge.

You were saying?

It shows the lack of ambition Keith has for his club that he considers the last 2 seasons as being successful despite them having nothing to show for them

I guess after almost four decades without silverware they have to cling on to these little victories like scoring more tries in a game they lost.

Sorry. Silly me. 40 years.

They say time is a great healer. In this case maybe not.

You haven't read my edit, I corrected myself 40 years not 30.
