Can't see Nige taking over the Bulls, he has always preferred Halifax to us. Besides we don't have many pie stalls and burger vans any more.
Let's go the full hog (lol) and get Ralphy in as well, one chuckle brother is no good without the other.

I am lost for words. RL is on the decline, combine that with them throwing money around like confetti at ex players with no idea how to grow the sport, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see why the sport is on the ropes. For 275k you would have thought they could get someone good.

I think you're overlooking his early life in Buttershaw where he was, at one time, as I understand it, a Bulls fan. He does go 'native' though, in whichever environment he finds himself.

A little like Harry Gration from Look North, he too was a Bulls' season ticket holder, but now has the feign the look of a man in torment when his "beloved" York City get relegated. Never mentions the Bulls, of course, nor any other team in the championship - along with ever other reporter on Look North. Damn then all.

Gration really gets up my nose, quick to forget his roots and self promoting. Prehistoric and vaudeville... sums him up for me!

Wasn't he employed by the RFL in the not too distant past?

Briefly. He fell out with Maurice Lindsay.

Yes, Big Nige never really had any love for Fax, just for himself. You'll have to look long and hard to find anybody round here who has a good work for other than a four letter one.

100% agree.
So it isnt just me who thinks "wtf!" when people big-up that weasley hetherington-@rse licking muppet

But he does have his uses - if the dog has eaten something bad and I want it to vomit - I just switch Look North on and wait for grations sickly mug to appear - barf!
