He said: “It’s been outstanding.

"It was a busy week making sure everything was right and it worked out well.

"Hull KR fans travelled in numbers and the Fev fans came out as they usually do despite the freezing cold. I’m over the moon.

"Everything on social media this past week or two has been positive and it’s unbelievable the reception I’ve had. I can’t be more thankful.

"It was an outstanding performance. We’ve just been working on stuff from New Year’s Eve and I think a few of the things we’ve been working on worked out. We played well.”
