The fella speaks honestly and openly about the game unlike the majority of ex players currently involved with the media. I have no problem at all with him.

He tells it as it is, never saw him as being bitter about the club. He goes to most games, remember him hugging Brian mc in the royal box at cc final.

I agree. Whether you think he is speaking rubbish or not i do believe he is saying what he truly thinks so you have to give the him respect for that if nothing else.



I will always hold they man in high regard anyway due to him being one of my heroes on the playing field throughout my youth watching Leeds.Still the best Half back i have seen pull on Blue and Amber

No GB or England half back has ever matched his performance on the 1990 tour of NZ.

He told us some great stories about been on tour with GB. We were on about Brough's NFL pass leading up to their try and I said I hadn't seen one like that since Schoey's to Offiah in the second Test at Melbourne in 92'. He turned round and said ' f***k off kid, that wasn't forward, that was the night I invented the momentum rule'!! Will deffinately be sharing a beer with him again soon.

like it.

He's clearly mellowed with time in that case, because there was a period after he got binned off by Huddersfield where he had absolutely nothing positive to say about anything in the game and Leeds in particular.

Yep. He appeared, at least, to be very bitter and to blame anyone but himself. He also appeared to want to say controversial things.



But in the last few years he does appear to have mellowed and be a bit more thoughtful with his comments and much, much less of a gobby, bitter ex-player. He's very much worth listening to now.

The thing with Schofield is he says what he truely thinks and to be perfectly honest agree with most things, and in truth he's right more often than not. We touched on Sinfield debate and he said that he never disrespected him and he's a great club captain, but not a great of the game as he hasn't, like many others, done it at international level. I think he's bang on.

Schoefield was very bitter when players were receiving loyalty payments to keep them here and not go to the other league in Oz, but he was nearing the end then

Schoey was my childhood hero. He always had time for us kids, he did our presentation evenings and was great. Agree for a bit there he had some ups and downs and he can come across as an ar$e a fair bit, but the more I listen to him on radio yorkshire the more I like him again.



Always a Leeds legend and well chuffed he has become more humble as he has got older. Still an opinionated blunt Yorkshireman! But so am I and I love him for it.

I can appreciate Schoey having a feeling of jealousy towards this generation of Leeds players and the collection of medals they have.Himself being such a great of the game only having the Yorkshire Cup on his resume at club level must grate a bit, but this generation never had a team on the level of Wigan during his time mopping up all the trophies.I'm sure he would have at least a couple of championships and Challenge cup winners medals to his name if that wasn't the case.



He does seemed to have mellowed a bit in recent times
