Here because of RL context. Harry collapsed and died today. Just been announced on Look North.😱😥

The "Dark Ages" is a term referring to life at the RFL under the new regime. It's characterized by a decline in openness, professionalism, transparency and  achievements,

Very sad news, RIP. Always came across as a warm bloke and passionate about RL.

I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

So sad to hear this news

Harry Gration has been a mainstay on local TV throughout most of my life. I met him once in 1990 when he was covering the Wakefield v Australia match at Belle Vue, he was an approachable, likeable bloke< the only person I ever knew to fall out with him was Bobby Fulton, ironically on the same night

RIP Harry and sincere condolences to his family and friends

Met him at a business awards ceremony in Sheffield a couple of years ago and had a bit of a chat about RL. You could tell he was a proper fan and had a couple of great stories. 

RIP Harry.. condolences to his friends and family

How much was he loved by his colleagues? This much.

Not gonna lie, welled up a bit at the end of the Sky coverage then. Very nice little tribute.

That interview with Fulton was legendary.

Sad loss.

RIP Harry.
