I did a hospital radio commentary with him a few years back. He certainly aspires in that direction. Good luck to him; he is incredibly passionate & knowledgeable about the game, especially the Bulls. I think finds it hard to contain himself at times.

I presume by "real" you mean paid? I have to ask the obvious question. Why do you ask?

He IS a very shrewd and skilful wind-up merchant who loves attention and probably this post dedicated to himself. If people never rose to the bait he would just crawl back under his stone and think of something else to do with his life.

What a loser.

I thought he was a made up character who only existed on RLFans. A joke that everyone was in on.

He still posts now and then on TLrlf but he has to behave

His Widdop thing was from a tweet

His twitter account is a work of literary beauty.

I'm still waiting for his #RLExposé mind you.

Calmed down a lot since his RLFans days but still relatively mad as a box of frogs. He's harmless really.

What's his Twitter Wheels?

I know Mick very well.
He used to live in the same Village as me in Bradford.
Really decent bloke outside of Rugby but when he's at Rugby his passion for the Game sometimes takes over.

He's harmless enough though.

on twitter today he saying kienhorst to Bradford next season lol

Now I don't believe when he said Widdop after that

Are you willing to answer the same question yourself? (Although 'journalist' may be stretching it.)

Did you have to apply for an exhumation order to dig this old thread up?

Let's face it though the lad is steeped in RL and more so Bradford Bulls .He had stuck with them through all the bad times

Mick Gledhill was a character on Total RL that I used to frequent as Northern Exposure.

Mick used to barrack referees to the nth degree when Bradford were still dwindling in Super League.

It got to the point where we tried to get Mick.to go on a referees course - but I'm not sure if he did.

In the end I was banned from Total RL for having the gall to suggest Hull KFC and KR should merge as the city wasn't big enough for 2 clubs.

In the end it seems Mick has done some journalism. But perhaps to the standards that you'd expect Fred West being a Youth Hostelling spokesman.

Most of the posters you used to wind up have gone too . That Wiganer used hate you . Can't think of his name

Tricky Dicky. Absolute crank.

mick is posting a lot on FB and Twitter he calls himself The Game Caller on Twitter . He does seem a lot more mature than when he used to come on here . he still observes Totalrlfansforum and only comes on when his names mentioned , he doesn't want to blot his copy book for his career in RL media . His hobby horse now is the proposed restructuring of RL comps .He does seem different now from when Bradford started their decline as we were going from strength to strength

There used to be a few esteemed posters from here who used do commentary with him on games IIRC.

"Turn round yer B, turn round yer B"

Quality.

He seems to be all over the place at the moment. He's commentating all of the Bulls games for Proper Sport and he's also just started a weekly show with some good guests such as Hardaker & Danny McGuire and he appears to be behind most of the media stuff at Odsal. His passion for the game is great but as some have already posted, he doesn't half exaggerate some stories.

Hope he does a better job than Stupid Smiling Simmo. What a cretin to have associated with the club.

That man is a virus.

Mick was on FB today walking over to Oldham apparently the M62 was blocked . I wonder if he really was walking all the way over there ?

The Mick Gledhill that I know is a thoroughly likeable chap. Has a flair for the dramatic as well, let's say.

He's probably forgotten more about rugby league that most of us will ever know.
