USRLFAN Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I just finished Up and Over by Dave Hadfield. In it he mentions an idea floating around at the time of a statue to rugby league somewhere along the M62, specifically he mentioned the Stott Hall farm as a possible location. Something like the Angel of the North in nature but representing RL. I wondered if anyone else had heard of the idea and if it ever got any traction? I thought it was a great idea but might also reinforce parochial aspects of RL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USRLFAN Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 Ha! Well no worries. Thanks for the laugh! In the book he mentions Steve Ball(former Batley chairman) as the driving force behind the statue plan. He's also been pushing hard for the RL museum.
