Quote: pinballwizzard "Fax machine, take that huge chip off your shoulder.
Like others I could list several reasons why i am 'real' rl supporter. From my having a season ticket for the past 20 seasons(75% of my life) to being a founder member of the trust; to writing a dissertation on the unjust representation of rl in the media, government and history (including the desecration of French rl by the vichy govt) and sending said paper to major publishing houses and networks and the rl working party; to buying every book I know of written, video made about rl 'just because its about rl'. To attending 2 rugby games the past two Sundays as fax were not playing. I could go on.
I reckon i'm a 'bigger' rl fan than most on here. And I reckon most would say that too. Including all those others choosing the football on Sunday. It's religion. Similarly, I won't be castigated for choosing to watch the football. Enjoy watching the game with the huge burden on your shoulder.'"
Hear Hear.
Well said. I too am a loyal supporter, I have followed Halifax for the past 20 years, home and away, in good and in bad times. I do my bit. I am a lottery member, I am a kit sponsor and I watch rugby league both live and on the TV at all possible occasions.
That said I will be watching England play on Sunday and the only loosers here will be Dewsbury (financially).
