Quote: GrahamBray "I remember Fox saying that on the radio too, when asked about Hanley's absence from the team, but I thought it was along the lines of robbing a post office, whatever though, you're right, only RL.
Going back to the Dannatt challenge, it was a full on assault ! Hanley had only just signed with Leeds I believe and that day, in the mud, Schofield broke our hearts with a 90 yarder while looking slower than a prop, with only Jon Sharp in pursuit , it was almost as if the try was in slow motion for us watching. The threepenny stand gave him some serious stick that day, more than I have ever heard for anyone else since I'd been going. Great days.............lol.'"
Ha ha, I got a bit mixed up with another incident regarding Andy Dannatt, he somehow managed to kick a player in the head whilst in the action of playing the ball, long time ago now.
Foxy actually said that to me in Cas, I always wondered how the great Ellery Hanley managed to get the M.B.E if he was indeed convicted, we really need Wilf back in action, he’s had a week off now
