1. Very few people know the full story.
2. He's paid his debt to society
3. He appears to have straightened himself out on and off the pitch
4. He's a very committed and hard-working RL player and the fans appreciate that
5. He loves playing for Hull KR and cares about the club/fans, highlighted by him (reportedly) reduced to tears by the ovation at the end of the Wigan game the other week, + his excellent gesture of giving his match boots away to a young fan.

We would love and praise them, as all sports fans do once a player makes the switch to their club.

| They used to have this feature in the HDM every week. It always seemed to be Barry McDermott. As a player he fitted the bill perfectly, but now he appears universally liked. Splendid fellow.
anyway, most of my list is from pre-SL:
Andy Fisher - anyone remember him on RL Raw (Dewsbury v Rovers) slagging us off in the dressing room for singing our version of "Old Faithful" during a play off game (2001?)
Gareth Handforth - ten bellied to$$pot who was a central plank of the Donny headhunters.
Richard Chapman - probably 'cos he always played well against us.
Barry Eaton - see above
Since 2007:
Kirk Yeaman, by some considerable distance, although it makes it all the sweeter to watch him playing in Jake Webster's pocket during derbies.
Ghandi - coward who runs 40 yards to smack someone from behind
Ben Westwood and his ten foot chin.
Just compiling this list has raised my blood pressure!

The full story.
Hmm. Correct me if I'm wrong, but here's how I've interpreted "the full story", but warns viewers before seeing:
"WARNING - This video contains scenes of graphic violence."
Rovers decide not to sack him and he remains a player to this day.
That's a pretty full story. But I'd be delighted to know of any further details we all seem to have missed.

Willingly. You neglect to mention said victim attacking the girl prior to Cockayne's attack on him, which was a conveinient ommision on your part to suit your agenda.
You also mislead the perverting the course of justice part, given that it was the "victim" who approached Ben (not the other way around as per your version).
Apart from that, spot on, possibly 60% of your summary is accurate. Do you work in the local media?

Did he? that wasn't in any of the media reports I read. Care to provide a link?

Did he? I said Ben visited the victim in order for the two to discuss a resolution. I don't know who instigated this and didn't allude to that. Bit irrelevant, though, any meeting was illegal, regardless.
So, in lieu of a link, which other bits of the story has the world missed which goes someway to exonerating Ben? Perhaps Roofs can contribute?
No, I don't work in the local media. Do you?

You appear to read the Hull Daily S**t, enough said really.
I heard the victim had been assaulting random people in pubs that night, + what's already been said about you getting the story wrong.
