Probably just Coronation Street producers re-inforcing Northern stereotypes - Jack Duckworth used to have racing pigeons too.

[quote="Damo-Leeds":2s3i877q]Sam Tomkins is just mere hype hiding behind a good team. Danny McGuire is the real deal.[/quote:2s3i877q]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9237.gif |

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

| Quote: Andy Greg "Met 4 of the Emmerdale cast a few years ago at Leigh when they played Leeds nice group of people apart from supporting Leeds. If memory serves correctly the one who plays Terry is supposed to be an Ex league player not sure who he was supposed to have played for but when he first came to the show this was mentioned only remember because he mentioned rugby league.'"
Years ago, they had a inter town game of RL (or something like that) Terry said he would get a friend who still played in as a ringer, up popped Martin Offiah. His team were 1 player short so asked a bloke to play who was putting the paint markings on the pitch, around turns Gary Connlly (sp)
The other village team had pulled in a few ringers themselves, the entire Tongan RL team. they were over here for the WC iirc |

Yeah, "Nice to take your money 'off -e-ah'" after Offiah lost a bet |

Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

Wigan were the opposition during the match that was used for filming 
That photo from Corrie looks like a side view of The Shed at Salford.

This sporting life has just been re-issued this week. Don't suppose it will pack out the Odeons etc, but the more arty cinemas might show it. It gets an excellent review in the times. Lindsay Anderson directed.
I thought Richard Harris was okay in the role (can't imagine many actors being better).
I have a certain empathy for this film having had several teeth knocked out in similar circumstances.
