Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.

Hi there, sorry I missed this when it came out, but here's a late bit of trivia: No. 588, Jim Holcroft, was my father: never actually signed for Fax, as he was still registered with Warrington under the name George Taylor, who had dropped him. A local paper reported that he had been signed from RU club Moseley, Warrington found out just before his 5th game, which was to have been against Warrington, and lodged a complaint, forcing him to return. This was, I think, the 46-47 or the 47-48 season. He eventually got away from the Wire and landed at Salford in 49-50 but was always proud of his four games at Thrum Hall.
