“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club":16914.jpg



Gentleman Johnny Whitely, a fantastic bloke who will give his time to anyone. One of my best mates lives with his Grandaughter now and he is even better for knowing.

I've met many players over the years, and i've never really had a problem with many.

Paul Sculthorpe, Barrie McDermott, Sean Long, Andy Farrell and Ian Millward were all really nice blokes.

I've had good chats with Terry Matterson, Danny Sculthorpe, Wayne Godwin and Stanley Gene to name a few that first spring to mind, whilst Jason Robinson was very obliging recently when a Dutch friend of mine randomly introduced herself to him in our local Tesco, simply because she wanted to meet an English celebrity while she was over here.

My brother's missus also seems to speak pretty highly of Phil Bailey after she used to serve him quite often in the cafe she used to work in.

Never spoken to Barrie MacDermott personally, but he appears very approachable whenever I see him at various matches; always has a posse of fans hanging off him.

The most memorable chat I've had with a (then) rugby league player was Lee Smith, who strolled up behind me at a cashpoint queue in a Leeds nightclub, and asked what I thought of Lee Smith. Not knowing it was him, I said I was quite impressed with what I'd seen of him during his first season, after which he introduced himself and thanked me before skipping off (literally) towards the bar. Odd.

I chatted to Petero Civonoceva outside a hotel for the best part of an hour once when he was over touring with Australia. He is a top bloke.

Nat Wood, I was only in Primary school but we spoke for about 15 Minutes at the end of season awards at Wilderspool many moons ago and he gave me his old boots

Also Tony Smith and Wayne Price

You have just replaced 'Changa' as my all time favourite RLFans poster.

Tuigamala was a very nice bloke.

One bloke who get's bad publicity but is actually a friendly, funny though very daft lad when out is Sean Long.

Interesting, why was Slater an idiot? Shame if true he's a fantastic player.

As much as it pains me to say it was a Viking, anyone who has met Matt King won't have met a nicer bloke.
