Who let the dogs out ?

Keith Senior, quite the dandy these days, made a grand entrance on horseback at a celebratory bash Keith_senior thrown by the owners of "Britain's Best Home". The Leeds and Great Britain centre, resplendent in jodphurs and knee length riding boots, was among 150 friends and neighbours at the £4 million Carr Hall Castle at Stainland, near Halifax, for a party thrown by entrepreneurs Terry George and partner Michael Rothwell to celebrate them winning the Channel Five property programme award. Unfortunately, Keith failed to shut the gates when he mounted his steer to make the short trot home, with the result that two of the couple's dogs escaped and were later found to have been shot dead by a local farmer. "Keith is really upset," Terry George told the Yorkshire Post. "He blames himself but it was a terrible mistake."

Can’t be much of an equestrian our Keith, I’d have just leapt the gates on my almighty steed.

I’d have worn shorts too instead of jodhpurs, up to me isn’t it.

Are you mad Tony ? Yeaman played okay the other night against St Helens but Senior's been doing the business week in, week out for Leeds. Pick Yeaman ahead of him and you need yer head testing, mate.

So you think Senior is better than Yeaman ...lol. Put Yeaman in the Leeds side and you would see how much fitter & a better player Yeaman is. Yeaman is way better defensively and is just as good offensively. If you want to keep with dads army then watch the PNG lads bust Senoir up in the World Cup.

I've seen Keith on his horse because I live near him.

But I can't imagine him riding it all the way from Stainland to Oakes though. I wonder where he keeps it?

Anyway Rhino's hard man caught wearing jodphurs at night club owners house.


Did he have a whip with him as well tiger?

Thanks as always Mawlcum for your penetrating insight. I'm just glad that Senior himself wasn't shot, because god forbid England would have to play Kirk Yeaman at centre at the World Cup.
