Nah then,

What the bluddy ell did he do it for? One of the darkest moments this fine upstanding Union has ever witnessed. The fine at the time was unprecedented. Mind you, we had a bluddy great Christmas do that year.

Thanking you kindly.

It will be interesting to see if Whiting plays as 1st choice full back when Cameron Phelps is fit to play. Had Tansey not been sacked he'd have played FB & Whiting would probably have played in the centres.

10th aniversary this year, the club should organise a reunion dinner.

[iUnder-strength Leeds Rhinos re-wrote the chapter on their best Super League win with an incredible 15-6 triumph at Hull. The Rhinos have played far better over the past five years, but never with so much spirit, determination and defensive steel – and never against such overwhelming odds. Missing seven first-choice players and including six members of last season’s Academy team, the Rhinos travelled more in hope than expectation to their least favourite away ground to take on a near full-strength Hull side. And for the first 40 minutes there was nothing to suggest Leeds would do any better than go down to a creditable defeat. The Rhinos defended bravely against incessant Hull attacks throughout a torrid opening period. But they couldn’t control the ball in a torrential downpour and managed just two raids into the home 20 – and it seemed only a matter of time before the floodgates would open. Had Hull managed to get more than one score in front that would almost certainly have been curtains for Leeds. But crucially they couldn’t find a way through an excellent, never-say-die Rhinos defence and incredibly the visitors began to claw their way back into the contest. The catalyst for the Rhinos’ stunning second-half showing was a real collector’s item, prop Danny Ward’s first drop goal at any level. Reminiscent of his father David at Wembley 23 years ago, 21st birthday boy Ward snapped up a rebound from a Robert Burrow grubber and slotted over a perfect right-footer – to his own obvious surprise. Ward’s one-pointer brought gales of laughter from the Threepenny Stand – but it took the Rhinos to within a converted try of the lead and gave them the self-belief to kick on for an amazing win. The drop goal came just a minute after the break and it was another 20 minutes before the Rhinos managed their first try, Mark Calderwood racing from nowhere to out-jump Chris Smith and collect Kevin Sinfield’s pin-point cross kick.

It were that long ago wee Robbie Burrow was still known as Robert.

I remember playing 5-a side down at Goals at Elland Road that afternoon and with a torrential thunderstorm to wave away as we left, how time flys

I was working just outside Knutsford that day and the thunderstorm followed me all the way across the country. A couple of times I got just in front of it, but 5 minutes later it was back



I also remember GCH phoning me after the game, which is more than he does!

Best quote of the night was the leeds fans singing ' he got p***** on your money' refering to Mr ATnsey
