This is the story of the matches. Hull colonised the west and Rovers settled in the east and the clubs close encounters have generated their own characters and controversies, dramas and dreams. This culminated in a special day in May 1980

Derby days featuring Hull FC and Hull Kingston Rovers have existed since 1899 and in the ensuing 100 years the two factions have had a natural divide because they have been based on either side of the River Hull. This is the story of the matches.

Hull colonised the west and Rovers settled in the east and the clubs’ close encounters have generated their own characters and controversies, dramas and dreams.

This culminated in a special day in May 1980 when the two sides met each other in the Rugby League Challenge Cup Final at Wembley.

But Hull’s professional rugby league derbies have not only thrown up their own magic moments and marvellous memories, they have also taken place in a variety of competitions, settings and guises.

This is a paperback reproduction of the long out of print book from 1999.

Great for travel
Scent: Unscented, Size: 6 Count (Pack of 30)
I honestly hate dry wiping. I’m glad these are so small to carry in my bag just in case I have to go #2 in public. They stay moist the whole time. And since they come in bulk, i had them for a while and they were still moist! They’re soft and strong too.

Great for Travel!
Scent: Unscented, Size: 6 Count (Pack of 10)
These are great hand wipes! They clean and without a sticky residue. I keep a pack in my purse and use them for travel. They are durable and do not break easily, plus are nice and soft. I chose the unscented ones and they are perfect.

Added to My Daily Routine
Scent: Unscented, Size: 6 Count (Pack of 10)
These wipes came in clutch on my recent international travel adventure. I used them to wipe dirty hands, snotty noses, airplane tray tables, public bathroom surfaces, and sweaty bodies when showers were not readily available. I love how small and portable the packages are and that they are so easy to add to a purse, backpack, carryon bag, or stow in a pocket of a jacket or vest. I always had them with me and even rescued strangers when a public bathroom had run out of soap.

Great water flosser
Color: Pink+purple
Got it for my 10 year old with braces and it works great! She even takes it to sleepovers! It’s so portable and the travel safe design is great. It’s a very reasonable price as well. Would highly recommend
