With time on our hands its time to perhaps revisit or see something for the first time. This Sporting Life is a 1963 film which follows Frank Machin played by Richard Harris in his world as a professional rugby league player. A very gritty film of its era well worth watching and you will see how Belle Vue went from one of the best appointed RL stadiums to what it is today. Also clips of the old Thrum Hall ground previous home to Halifax.
