Not a full on fan, but pretty sure Mark Chapman has a soft spot for FC from his time at Hull Uni. He's definitely brought them up on radio before, back during his Scott Mills days.

not exactly local, but aren't a few of the Man United players into a bit of RL?

A good number of their players going back a few years have been RL fans. Of the current batch Rooney & Ferdinand are the most notable, particularly Ferdinand who has gushed about Sam Tomkins numerous times.

Why? I think Cooke's book will be one of the more entertaining rugby league books out there. No disrespect to the lad, but he's certainly got plenty of issues to discuss if he chooses to.

Would I be interested in what's in it, yes, will I buy it and put money in that %$£@~#'s pocket, NO.
