    Just seen Kevin Sinfield will be coming to VP on Friday at around 330pm, I’m going to try and get down hope others can too. Secondly just seen a good luck message from Stephen Darby, so sad to see that he’s now struggling with his speech. If I was ever to say I was desperate for a cure for a disease it would be this one.

    I read somewhere that Rob Burrow said that if everyone had a friend like Kevin the world would be a much better place.
    How very true.

    Remember the days when two blokes walked along cinder track around the pitch and lastly the the Bradford end with a blanket. @Bronco@Bronco ?

    The poor sods got battered with pennies. It was a regular occurrence.

    How sad was it to see Stephen needing so much help to go down the steps. Even so, physically, he is managing so much better than Rob and Doddy. The 3 of them and Kevin's campaign are doing so much to recognise how widespread this insidious disease is, cracking it is paramount.

    Even Lenny throwing sweets to kids was deemed as dangerous.
    World's changed but, not for the better.

    The blanket collection was like taking your life in your own hands as you came past the Bradford End you found out who your friends were, those old pennies certainly hurt when they hit you, it would be some "risk assessment" this day and age ;).

    Good man. We will be at VP Friday. If the system wasn't so corrupt I'd say he should be SIR KEVIN.

    I'm sure if it's publicised you can nip to the ball and grab some cash. If you're tight you can even get it changed at the petrol station on Valley parade.

    I believe that Kevin Sinfield will arrive at Valley Parade on Friday afternoon around 3.30pm. He sets off again at 7am on Saturday morning to Manchester, starting from Valley Parade.

    I'm intending to be at Old Trafford when he arrives on Saturday.

    A great idea. Hopefully we do have a collection especially as that will be Day 7 of Sinfield’s gruelling challenge. I think we should get this publicised asap and even a gesture from the club to match all donations.

    Charities and events are generally equipped with card machines now - it's not just change into a bucket anymore.

    Might be able to make a donation on card.

    Your possibly right who'd want to be associated with some who have received that title, as you say its incredible what he puts himself through for a fantastic cause.

    Bugger , saw an interview probably a year ago and didnt seem too bad compared to some - Must have gone down hill fast which i think is probably a blessing as its a horrific disease

    RIP Doddie
