YOU won’t convince these young lasses, who support us from afar — Cannock in Staffordshire to be precise — that we’ll have a tough job on our hands when London Skolars come to the Vestacare Stadium on Sunday, kick-off 3pm.
You may remember that, back in April, proud Dad Ian Price and Elise (pictured on the right of the picture) drove from Cannock to Oldham to watch their first live rugby league game when we beat West Wales Raiders 100-4.
Ian later sent us a very complimentary email about the welcome he and Elise had received.
Well, we have kept in touch and we have now received from Ian this picture of Elise and his younger daughter Rosa (left) showing off their Roughyeds colours and their Roary’s Pride hats during a summer holiday away.
Ian and Elise hope to be here again either this Sunday for the London Skolars game or, failing that, on Sunday, September 4 when we play Hunslet in our final game of the regular season.
Wrote Ian:
“The girls will be proud to be members of Roary’s Pride. Their Roughyeds water bottles are used regularly and always come away with us when we go camping on holiday.
“We hope to see you again either this Sunday or on September 4.”
This is the original story, and Ian’s lovely email, which we used here on the website in April:
