I noticed Rio Ferdinand seemed to enjoy the Saints v Wigan match, tweeted in praise of Tomkins and Lima and actually said he wanted to go to a Pies match to see them in action.
So that is Rooney, Giggs, Ferdinand and Roy Keane exposed as big rugby league fans!! Anyone see a pattern emerging there?
Add to that Stuart Pearce and we could be looking at quite a footballing fanbase!

I remember seeing Bobby Charlton at Naughton Park many years ago. Can't recall who he was with though (maybe Denis Law?).

Aye, saw that - as ever with people who have more money than sense though, I bet they don't have to pay to get in

nicky barmby is a bigh hull fc fan

Bruce Grobelaar, Joey Barton, Ian Wright, Jason Cundy, to name a few

Carvell looked quite handy with his feet when he kicked scott moore in the head last night

Loads of United lads used to go to CP back in the day; Giggs, Scholes, Keane, etc. I know some of them still go to the DW. Believe Rooney is a Leeds fan for some strange reason!

@rioferdy5 "@samtomkins1 ok, nice 1 + keep it up man because Wigan are my team since Edwards, Offiah + Frano Botika days!"

This is a sad reflection of how small time RL is, our supporters are actually getting excited that one of these amazing god like footballers has caught half of one of our matches on Sky Sports. Wooo.

Edited for accuracy.

Manchester United alone are vastly, massively bigger than the whole of British RL put together, probably by a factor of thousands. That quite a few of their lads (past and present) love our game and go to matches is something we should be proud of.

i wonder how many of the london based players of nal, chelsea, spurs etc have even heard of the london broncos!!

Thanks for concurring with my post.
