Wiggyroad Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Thanks York Press for your pre match coverage of the Bradford game. Nothing at all mentioned on line about the game at all . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaxbyKnight Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 The Press is no longer a local paper, and the content is usually poor and incorrect. I think Emma does a great job covering the Knights, but she's fighting a losing battle for space with (2 day old) 'breaking news' about potholes in some remote part of Yorkshire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarence Street Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 A chap called Alfred Foster was the first York R.L. reporter I remember. Don't know how I remembered him, I'll have to go and have a lie down now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far better than those journos John when we had the original Evening Press. As mentioned already Martin Lacey and the very professional Peter Smith who went on to ghost write rugby league autobiographies, think he still writes for the Yorkshire Post. As many posters have highlighted, the current York Press is a joke, the young journos are on a hiding to nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say he went on to better things and I think your correct to say he's still with the Post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryHall Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 (edited) I will always be grateful to Peter Martini for the press coverage he gave us when we were trying to get a club started after the demise of the Wasps.

spanishknight Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 There's a bit in the Press saying Chris Clarkson is to retire at the end of the season, Clarkson been a brilliant signing for the Knights, thanks for pulling a Knights shirt on Chris. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeb1 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Totally agree , wasn't convinced about clarky to start with but has proved to be a goód leader out there plus his versatility and commitment to the knights has been second to none, made the right decision to go out at the top , thanks for helping the club , good luck clarky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puk Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Has certainly been a great signing and will certainly take some replacing and moving him into the centres late in the season tightened the right hand side of our defence up,thanks Chris for pulling on a knights shirt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expatknight Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Sorry to see Clarky is hanging up his boots, great bloke, always has time for the fans and has captained York well, giving everything on the pitch, He will be missed by the players and fans alike. Hope he has a happy retirement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
