Quote: Gerald Weaver "Yes, those were the days when R Dog used to make occasional appearances on televised games. You have to admit that Uncle Eddie's roots in promoting RL went back some way, as shown in the recent? BBC documentary.
Many people south of Congleton were only aware of the game because of his mannerisms.
Still miss Floodlit RL on BBC2, even though it was only the second half.'"
With Eddie Waring, French and 'Stevo' you cannot doubt their love for the game.
I would suggest though, that all were/are used well beyond their 'sell by dates' and hence their continual use of cliches.
