    Of course, the BBC in their reporting say that the parade will cover the all of Hull.....No chance. I sent them a message to say I don't think they'll get much of a wave west of the city centre...Well they'll get a wave but not the kind the BBC would anticipate.. Why are the national broadcaster so $hit? Maybe that's a discussion for another time..

    Now the dust has settled a bit I have to say that performance last night was immense. Apart from the first fifteen minutes Rovers absolutely mullered Wigan.

    Their defence was the best I’ve ever seen, Wigan couldn’t get out of their own half and spent a lot of time camped on their own line.

    How Hadley isn’t in the England squad is a complete joke as well.

    I played 4 times at the old Craven Park so feel as if I laid some of the foundations for last night.

    No need to thank me.

    Because the budgets for regions and for lesser-followed sports have been cut - 23 years ago, the BBC did match reports on division 3 and conference League games...

    You’re one of the good ones Rover, enjoy every minute of it pal. I’m genuinely over the moon for you, it’s the type of season most will never get to see!

    It’s a good debate and obviously very subjective but for me Luke Cambells gold medal and City’s rise from League 2 to the Premier League top it.

    I’m sure others will disagree though!

    Nothing to debate imo, they're all fantastic achievements, no reason for one to be 'better' than any other.

    It's headline news from Cottingham to Carlisle. Our Wembley win against Bristol City attracted the interest of the Louth Leader newspaper.

    That’s a fair point, someone needs to tell the Rovers admin that!

    Football is my game of choice. Although I did play rugby ( both codes) . I have a passing interest in the rugby teams, but very rarely would I attend a game. That said, I have been taken (by rovers supporting mates) to two games this season. Question is do rovers get a cup at the end of every game? Also being taken to an international @ Evertons new ground.

    That and the quality of journalism at the BBC is dire. Not what it was say 50 years ago. World class then, now third rate at best.

    For me as a City and Rovers fan, it's gotta be City's Prem promotion, F.A. Cup Final and Europe. Rovers treble this season of course.

    Ye, used to read the website daily between 1999-2013, it was constantly updated and full of new things to read every day and best for breaking news and a rolling news feed, I think the news page was even my home page for most of those years. The sports and finance sections were pretty good also. Can't remember the last time I independently read it now, only if sent a link to click on.

    Is there another trophy that rovers didn't win this season? I ask because when talking to an FC fan last night and I said rovers had done well to win everything and get the treble, he came back and said they didn't win them all and there is another one. Couldn't say what it was though so maybe just bitter and twisted.
