The Trinity legend has sadly passed away. One of the greatest to pull on the red, white & blue during our most successful era and an all round great bloke. My condolences to his family and friends. R.I.P. Harold.

One of the greatest. Was my favourite player when I started watching tinity. A Liam Finn look alike but with pace. Always continued to support us and attend Belle Vue regularly. Suspected he might be I'll when he was not interviewed for the recent Waters plash final documentary Condolences to his family. His name will always be synonymous with Trinity.
If I was short sighted I could become a referee!

Dread opening these posts headed with ex players names. Sad news.

Not many left now, that golden era is fast fading from living memory and I see no signs of this lot turning it around. RIP. Did Harold Poynton used to have a Newsagents on Horbury road?
