It's clear that the public school dominated BBC don't give a shee-ite about RL - I hope it's removed from the crown jewels list for next season and Sky take it over. At least we'll get:



Proper coverage

No Ray French rambling like a batty old geezer

HD

Decent camera work

No Jonathon Davies whining and moaning about everything



I can tolerate Waldorf and Statler and a few adverts if it means all of the above improvements.

[urlhttp://www.rugbyleagueontv.co.uk/[/url says so here aswell starts at 1.30pm, crap especially if you want to record it which you cant do if its on the red button!!

I played in the 1979 curtain raiser when Trinity played Widnes. Must say it was one of the best rugby playing days of my life. Its a real shame that the BBC dont show it anymore!

I think Sky would do a better job of broadcasting the whole day even though I dont subscribe

remember it well it picked us all up at the time we had little else to shout about it was a very sad day when Steven died a distant relation to my wife who was also a Mullaney

No one who saw the TV coverage of the little guy bursting into tears will ever forget it. I still have a photo of the whole schoolboy team on the balcony of the town hall after they arrived back in the open topped coach along with the Trinity team.

I remember the little fella and the try at wembley as if it was yesterday,god bless him.
