As a few of you might know '
im a bradford fan aswell as hornets,
ive been watching them when they were Northern.
29 years in all'
And Yesterday i took Mrs H and my to kids to Bradford,
as i heard Robbie Paul was doing a book signing in Waterstones,
I bought his book and he signed it.
Then we Started talking, we must have been talking for a good half hour'

When we got to the 1996 challenge cup final,
booby goulding (aaarrrggggg) got mentioned,
''i might have Nathan Graham nightmares again tonight''
then we got on talking Hornets.

i know its a boring post but
Im just saying what a true Gent and what a plessure it was to meet 1 of my Rugby League idols'

Doesn't surprise me he seems like a great bloke (most kiwis are after all), but his column in Rugby League World is turgid - in the last edition it is nothing but an advert for his book.

Poor editorial policy I suspect letting him loose. The JJB column used to be like that but that seems to have improved a lot. What makes people think sports blokes can suddenly become journalists immediately after retirement (or before in some cases).
