An Introduction to Hull KR Rugby League Shirt and it’s inspiration.

The 1980 Challenge Cup was the first Hull Cup final derby. It had supporters from the East and West of the city making the trip to London. Hull Kingston Rovers defeated Hull 10-5 at Wembley before a crowd of 95,000. The game made national headline with the BBC Coverage  and big local news in the Hull Daily Mail.

Hull Kingston Rovers opened the scoring with a well-worked move. And Brian Lockwood’s delayed pass opened up a gap in the Hull FC defence for winger Steve Hubbard to score a memorable try. Although Hubbard missed the conversion he did kick a penalty in front of the posts following aggressive tactics by Hull FC.

Immediately after Roger Millward released Phil Lowe on a storming run. Seconds after Millward released the ball, Ron Wileman of Hull FC hit Millward and Hull FC were penalised. Further, Hubbard kicked the goal and Rovers led by a 7-0.

Hull FC’s Tim Wilby scored a try from close-range to bring Hull closer at 7-3. Hull KR Captain Roger Millward dropped a goal so at half-time it was Hull KR 8 v Hull FC 3.

Additionally, in the second half, Sammy Lloyd kicked a penalty for Hull FC. With only five minutes left, Hull FC faced penalisation and Steve Hubbard kicked the goal to make the final score to 10-5 for a Hull KR victory.
