Jeez, another apologist.

This was probably the biggest single event organised by someone not directly involved with Richard, I've seen wolfie get in the ring with Bomber-Graham to make money for Steve Prescott, I've seen him give up his life (and his family) pretty much to organise this event, the least ALL of the players could have done it pitch up on a Sunday for a RUGBY related tournament, or is that too much to ask?

I've no axe to grind with Richard, he's a top bloke who has been dealt a raw hand in recent months, he and Prescott are [itrue[/i legends of the game, wolfie is one of the best blokes I know, do anything for you and yet is as modest as you can be.

I'd just like to have seen the club really thank the fans for their support, it was the nearest to a PITP we are going to get this season.

Give over you miserable B! If you went I hope you enjoyed it, if you didn't then give it a bl00dy rest.

Aimed at Standee - who clearly can't stand anything at the moment.

Standee i couldn't agree more with you

I'm the first one to hold my hand up and admit I can be a complete to55er at times, my mouth runs faster than my brain can fire, the main thing is that wolfie pulled off a massive event (and with help, I know, not saying it was just him), I can say for certain I've never put that much effort into anything I got paid to do, let alone voluntarily.

I hope Rich makes a load of cash out of his testemonial, he'll be the last ever FC player to really deserve it, the game (or more accurately the club) has moved too far from it's fans now.

Phew - now that didn't hurt did it

Hall was sat next to Fletch!!!

You just didn't get it that's all. Eh?

Come on, that is a little unfair. Why are people on this board resorting to name calling lately? I thought you said the fans should pull together?

It's disappointing if the turnout of players was low but as Suzie said there are plenty of other events throughout the year.

Think we all feel that way, mate.

It seems the cheerleader thread seems to come earlier each year.

Right heres goes ill give my view to it now.

like standee said i do these things cos i enjoy it dont realy know why tbh the grief i get off some people,like i said earlier even people refused to pay £2 to get in even tho i have advertised it for the past 4 months as a fundraising event,they even resorted to climbing over the fence to get in even pushing by my wife to get in i just felt like walking away from it but how could i do that to horney,my wife deserves a medal for what i put her through doing these events,it was that embarrising the landlord of westhull gave me £50 to the fund cos he was embarrased at what i was subjected to.

now for the players,rich has known about this event for months and what was needed as in players to play in the alstars final he realy has bust a gut to get them involved,i had got rich fletcher who had to pull out with pectoral injury but the guy still turned up to both events,i also got preckie to come,he was poorly all week but the guy still put his shorts on to support rich,like standee said the guy is a LEGEND,richard whiting was deffo playing but pulled out through illness,andy last was playing but couldnt cos his bairn is ill,rich rang me in the morning to say everything was ok re players,tommy lee,danny houghton,graham horne was all suppose to be playing but they didnt show,rich was texting and calling them but they didnt show,think he was embarrased tbh,even i had to put my shorts on,not my scene realy but it was a priveladge to be along side them.

as for the evening i was told 5 or 6 players would attend thats why i advertised it,craig hall came even tho he was at a wedding do,how was i to explain this to people when they have asked me were was the players.

anyway everything went well at both events and im so proud,and so is horney he cant thank me enough.
thanks to everyone thats helped me get through this and to all those that helped me with the gala day.

not got a full amount yet cos still got bits and bobs to come in,its looking like ive raised well over £4000

cheers wolfie
