Nice to see Johnny Whiteley and Phil Lowe out on the pitch too.



Puts a little bit of faith back in the city of Hull.





Wardy was in tears when he came off.



Very humbling occasion.

Had tears in my eyes last night.



Met many of those blokes at the ex-players dinners. Great blokes they are too.

Walking up to the oak for a pint before the game and ran into "The bionic barrell" himself. He a big fella that one

It was a very emotional moment, and one fitting as a send off for a great. As I said to one fellow fan last night, I don't know if Wardy was holding Harry Jepson up, or if it was the other way around.



It's the fact that our game creates such a cameraderie between players, as could be seen during the sad scenes like last night, that really make our game stand out from the crowd.



Not only should we be proud of John Holmes and his achievements, but last night demonstrated that, with the attendance of John's peers from other clubs, we should be proud of our whole game.

I could have sworn I saw Gary H Price but I couldn't think of a connection.

He played for us under Fox didn't he?

I know there was a Gary Price who played for us (under Ward I thought) but for some reason last night I thought it was the other one who was there. Now I think about it, it was the one who played for us.





I'll just go back to bed now and sleep off my confusion.

Built tanks during the week ... Played like a tank at weekends !

That was Gary Price the former York second-rower.

Gary H. Price played for Wakfield and Fev.

They played together in the same team at Featherstone, hence the Gary 'H'. Price.

Thus, wasn't it the GH Price that played for Leeds .... Moving on to Wakey / Fav after leaving Headingley ?

Wayne Heron was one of my favourite players for Batley growing up, although he wasn't a patch on his brother. Loads of hard-work and a great tackler though.

We only managed to sign Dave from Bradford Northern when he was about 37, but he was still the best player on the pitch in most games he played for us.



There aren't many players around today that have even half the skill Dave possessed.
