If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Y'see, it looked a good deal at the time, but I reckon I've got a lot of value to extract from those twenty Queens yet.  |

if my memory serves me right wasn't that the game old len shoved a touch judge on the way off after being given the red card and copped a pretty hefty ban afterwards, mind you the flag waver made the most of it I seem to remember.

Rovers had already won the league by the time that Derby was played and IIRC rested a few 'injured' players in preparation for the Play-offs, it proved to be the right deciosion by Millward since we went on the win the Premiership. We won the championship with a few games to spare and lost the remaining league matches including the Hull game!.

I'm not so sure we lost because we were resting players more that we were red hot favourites going into that match having won the league and as so often happens in a derby we then went and lost! I can't remember what the official attendance was for that match but I reckon we must have fiddled it because I had rarely seen the old craven park much fuller I bet it looks good on TV |

yes that brings it all back, good report that, I was only a young boy myself at the time and vividly remember len and freddie ah kuoi going at it hammer and tongs thought at the time ah kuoi should have gone with him, always thought the linesman had took a dive on the way off, one of the strangest things I think I've seen on a rugby field that and Jeff Grayshons Bradford walk off.

16,084 - a post-war record, so its very unlikely you would have seen it fuller! |

Worst tumble I've ever seen was a Premiership referee after a shove from Paulo Di Canio years ago. 
Good to see ya mate.
