Looks like a good signing. What happened to Josh Johnson?

I think that I must be one of the few people who remember seeing him play. He was a very good player who always gave 100%. I think he played in the second row alongside George Parsons with Jim Parr at loose forward. All great players. I missed the 1958 semi final because of a family wedding. As a 10 year old I was gutted. At the time I was convinced that if I had been there cheering them on they would have won.

Tony was an absolutely class player. He played in the mid 70s when we had a side that could match any other team. I think he played in the John Player Final against Warrington. We had a good set of forwards and some clever backs at that time. Really sorry to hear that he had passed away.

Being a Luddite and not using Twitter or Facebook I looked on the Hornets web site to see if the match was on. I couldn't find any information. Luckily I decided after looking at the weather forecast not to risk buying a ticket and driving a just under hundred mile round trip. I've supported Hornets for 70 years being taken as a 5 year old by my Dad to The Athletic Ground. I find after so long I'm beginning to lose interest. This is no disrespect to Andy and co who are doing a good job keeping the club going. I think it is partly due to the long gap between home matches and partly the cost of £17 for admission and roughly another £13 for fuel.

Thanks.
