Quote: Henrique "I don't often submit many posts these days due to work, age, Grand children commitments and all the other conditions associated with increasing years. However I just wanted to mark the Rovers great achievement in reaching Wembley by just remembering some of the names from the past who contributed so much to the cause but will not be there to enjoy the occasion on Saturday. Wilf and Agnes Spaven, Harry Poole, Davy Elliott, Terry Major. I sat at Wembley in 1964 as a 13 year old when we lost to Widnes. All these people were instrumental, amongst so many others , over the years in starting the climb from the bottom of the 32 team league in 1961 to being semi finalists at Odsal against Huddersfield in 1962. I wish they could all be there on Saturday, like the rest of us but one thing, as they say is for certain, once a Robin always a Robin.'"
Well Posted sir. We all know someone close who we'd all love to be next to us this Saturday. 29 years is a long long time, well a generation ago since we could share a moment like this. We are the lucky ones who will, so enjoy every moment.
