Hull FC • Re: Reach Group Newspapers and the demise of an institution

One of my favourite ever Xmas presents was an annual subscription to the green Sports Mail paid by my mum every year and sent to me after I left the UK in1966. It lasted right up to when she died in the 90's and took about 10 days to arrive but I read it from cover to cover in both South Africa and Aus.
In my youth I played Union, League and Soccer in Hull and also for a couple of years sent a report of Union Saturday matches I played in to the HDM where it was posted in Tuesday's edition.

Loved the Sports Mail as a kid and from the age of about 8 used to get it for my dad from a Newsagent in Marfleet who received delivery around 6 pm.
