Yes. Featherstone is in West Yorkshire, Dickens is a Featherstone legend, thereby he is a West Yorkshire Rugby League Legend.
It might only apply to Featherstone, but the title still fits.'"
Hmm... Not really as Featherstone != West Yorkshire.
Surely people in the rest of West Yorkshire have to think of him as a Legend also for it to be accurate.
That's my post full of pedantary for the year. Yak. Sorry.  |

Just to extend your logic further, West Yorkshire is in England, England is in Europe, Europe is part of the World.
Dickens is not only a WY RL Legend but a World RL Legend. |

It doesn't matter whether someone in Vietnam or Namibia have heard of him or Featherstone, as the world have not heard of James Deighton either. He is local radio only, i.e. West Yorkshire, and it is that audience that he was reflecting to. Featherstone is West Yorkshire, simple as, and it can't be any clearer, that as far as Featherstone is concerned which is where Deighton was alluding to, then Dickens is a West Yorkshire RL legend.
Your's or my opinion doesn't really matter. And anyone who seriously says they have not heard of him, really needs to take a good look at themselves if they are calling themselves British Rugby League supporters. |

| Quote Fat Boy="Fat Boy"Quote Fat Boy="A-Fire-Inside"So you're saying James Deighton should have said 'Featherstone legend' to retire then? I'm sure that would have got the listeners tuning into Radio Leeds in their thousands to try and work out who that was
What would your criteria of a Rugby League legend be then? Presumably no one outside of Super League could ever qualify?'"

Thought about putting Sinny on the list but didn't want to show a Leeds bias with already naming Spedding. |
