I remember the touring game when we played Australia. I think he was accused of being a Leeds supporter which didn’t go too well.

Really nice guy , interviewed me a couple times over years , sadly missed

Always liked Harry and he loved both his Rugby League and Yorkshire cricket....R.I.P.

Really felt for Amy Garcia, having to announce the news at the end of the Look North program. (they must have handed her a piece of paper with it on just before the program end, if she knew earlier she wouldn't have been able to do the program).

Yeah, that's what it looked like...poor lass was absolutely devastated

Not speaking ill of the dead, but I could never quite take to him. I always thought he came across as not Trinity's biggest fan. He was a Bradford lad and as far as I know Northern/Bulls was his team. Taught my mate when he was a teacher at Rothwell Grammar School back in the eighties. Sadly, another of the owd 'uns that has left us.

One of the nicer guys could not make my mind up if he was a Cas or Leeds supporter .He was a true professional

A really good bloke. Good at his job.
Sadly missed.

As far as I'm aware he was a Bradford Bulls fan, not surprising as he was born there I believe.

RIP Harry and sorry for peeing on your shoe.

Not sure, but before Look North I think he was a RL reporter on the radio.Bumped into him a couple of times, once coming out of Whitelocks pub in Leeds centre, and again in Northowram,Halifax,when he was passing through doing a 3 legged charity thing with Paul Hunter.Seemed a really nice bloke,RIP Harry.
