| All great names who well deserve the accolades especially Neil, but my hero is from the same team as Neil and the player who was really responsible for us being the best team of the sixties era winning three challange cups. The hard man himself Mr Derek "ROCKY" Turner.

No chance their I'm afraid, Rocky simply won't attend anything and believe me people have tried - he's not fallen out with the club I just think he's a frail old man now and I think he doesn't want to be seen like that - vanity I suppose.
Neil Fox on the other hand is one of those men who has grown old gracefully and even now looks athletic for his age - he is always available and is a decent talker.
Also IMHO he is Mr Trinity and a hall of fame member but I get your point.

| I think we should invite Mr Offiah to bring the curtain down on BV with a ceremonial try, seeing as though he was never lucky enough to score a proper one there!!!
Got to be Neil Fox for NM, pointless even considering anyone else, no disrespect!!

For me, although he was great, Wally played 10 games for us, 4(?) at Belle Vue. There are a lot of names that have given a lot more to the club and ground itself who should be there before him.
I'd love to see him there, but not if only one or two.
I'd be interested to see who does hold the record for most games at Belle Vue. That stat probably isn't recorded but would be interested to find out.

| We should be looking at players who gave a lot to this club Fox at the top of the list.Should include some of the remaining 60s side alas some are not in the best of health and no one could argue with John Thompson.As for Wally Lewis no thanks if it had not been for the money he would not have given the club a second thought.

| Bit of a slap in the face to all the other legends that have played for Trinity over the years if Wally was considered, doubt he will be mind.

Although the money got him here, there is no doubt he gave it his all in my opinion. Kicked in the head, off to get stitched up and then back on again springs to mind.
He wasn't here long enough to be opening a stadium but I would argue with anyone qho questioned his effort while here.

Wally Tweeted only yesterday "Once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat." I believe he still thinks very highly of the club and very much enjoyed his time here.
Again - I can't see the value in pitting one against the other; an opening ceremony featuring past players would be fantastic - it doesn't have to be a competition.

| Dont we all think this naming, opening of the ground, walk to belle vue to newmarket talk is all abit premature, its still got to get built FFS.
Enjoy the fact that its passed but at this rate we'll soon be discussing the bathroom fittings in the new ground.

Lights in the bogs is a priority, I feel we ought to be discussing this now
On another point, who is the team that you feel we ought to play in our last game at BV and who the first at Newmarket?
I may be wrong (I usually am!) didn't we play at Warrington's new ground in their first league game?
