Gwilym Lloyd leaving RH at Christmas too?

Not heard anything has changed there, but hope it has. middle of January was his departure date.

Now that’s a present that’s been wished for more than “my 2 front teeth”
I’ve told this story before but I’ll risk it again, the first time away to Catalans we were sat outside the big cafe near the old jailhouse. I went to the loo and whilst washing my hands, Gwilym was trying to get the taps to work waving his hands under the tap, he said “how do you do it”, I replied “ magic” and walked away. I looked behind and he’d moved to the sink I’d used, still waving his hands under the tap, they were controlled by a big orange foot switch

Not before time...tbh, stopped listening to RH after they did the dirty on Burnsy and all the other presenters

Should have happened 5 years ago at the very least.

I noticed this morning their headline article was about not letting the BBC silence local media such as Hull Live but seems its now been removed, Not surprised if they have pulled it as it was just utter tosh and most comments I'd read were slating Hull Live/Reach PLC for the poor efforts and they were reaping what they themselves had sown.
The fact they are getting rid of two sports reporters for two top flight RL teams in the city just proves they have no interest in the local area or any other local areas where they are letting go of so many reporters.

Now the article is back but with all the comments removed and comments section disabled. So they have a nerve pleading about being silenced when that's all Hull Live /Reach PLC do to the local people themselves, think the irony is obviously lost on them.

Good point about the game overall. And the fact they are trying to make a contact sport more sterile ain’t gonna help. If you box you know your going to get hit on the head, same goes for rugby, you know your going to get hurt at some point.

No change on the Reach group redundancies and Dan still at present goes in two weeks time. I'm hearing from the other side of the City that as expected Rovers are fully on board with paying a package for advertising in order to keep the HDM coverage as they recognise the value of local traditional media coverage as it impacts on their income as a club, but I'm told no word from our lot, so, as it stands, there's an even worse scenario than no club specific detailed RL coverage in the Mail from mid January, we could now end up with Rovers coverage continuing in the Mail and ours ceasing in two weeks time.

It's a sad situation for a game that is rapidly losing profile and status at a time when it desperately needs more coverage and exposure. I know I go on about this and I'll get flack about going on about it but it's a real backward step that is being replocated across the game in areas served by Reach Group newspapers.

The Rovers coverage has almost dried up on there Wilf, I scrolled down the sports pages the other day and there was no less than ten stories related to FC before one about Willie Peters enjoying Christmas over here, I'm guessing if things stay as they are then both teams will have the odd Matt Shaw article printed here and there.

It's definitely a kick in the teeth for rugby fans when your local rags not going to publish there stories, and even though Joe and Dan aren't particularly great journalists there efforts were definitely better than what we're going to get.

years ago every morning paper had an rl columnist,brian batty,paul harrison,martin richards,jack bentley,when the press decided to move down south from manchester to london,rl coverage declined rapidly,i used to wade through page after page of tedious football to try find a bit of rl coverage.i finally realised i was buying the paper,just to do the crossword.i bought a crossword book,and stopped buying a morning paper.ive not bought a morning paper in 30 plus years.
