Bedford Roughyed Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 http://www.sthelensstar.co.uk/news/13348426.Rugby_league_legends_rally_round_for_Tony_Barrow_testimonial/ KEIRON Cunningham and Sean Long could dust off their boots and come out of retirement for a one off game for former Swinton and Oldham player Tony Barrow who has been diagnosed with cancer. The 43-year-old from Thatto Heath, the son of Tony Barrow senior who played for Saints during the 60s, is fighting an aggressive form of the disease after doctors found a brain tumour. Friends and family have quickly rallied round to raise funds for any treatment the father-of-two will have to undergo. With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
