  • Austerity, Affluence and Discontent in the United Kingdom, .1951-1979
    AUSTERITY, AFFLUENCE AND DISCONTENT IN THE UNITED KINGDOM, .1951-1979 Part 5: “Love Thy Neighbour” Immigration and Race Relations, c. 1951–1979 Source 1: Black revellers confront the police during the 1976 Notting Hill Carnival riots 2 Austerity, Affluence and Discontent in the United Kingdom, c.1951–1979: Part 5 Introduction Before the Second World War there were very few non-white people living permanently in the UK, but there were 2 million by 1971. Two thirds of them had come from the Commonwealth countries of the West Indies, India, Pakistan and Hong Kong, but one third had been born in the UK. The Commonwealth was the name given to the countries of the British Empire. However, as more and more countries became independent from the UK, the Commonwealth came to mean countries that had once been part of the Empire. Immigration was not new. By the 1940s there were already black communities in port cities like Bootle in Liverpool and Tiger Bay in Cardiff. Groups of Chinese people had come to live in the UK at the end of the 19th century and had settled in Limehouse in London, and in the Chinatown in Liverpool. Black West Indians had come to the UK to fight in the Second World War. The RAF had Jamaica and Trinidad squadrons and the Army had a West Indian regiment. As a result there were 30,000 non-white people in the UK by the end of the war.1 The British people had also been very welcoming to the 130,000 African-American troops of the US Army stationed in the UK during the war.

  • The Sociology of Sport and Physical Education: an Introductory Reader/ [Edited By] Anthony Laker
    The Sociology of Sport and Physical Education The Sociology of Sport and Physical Education is the first one-stop introductory guide for undergraduate students of Sport and Physical Education in the UK. With contributions from the leading names in its field, The Sociology of Sport and Physical Education examines the most important current issues in this area. The first section of this book will enable students to understand and contextualise the issues discussed by looking at the theoretical background and research methods used in the sociological study of sport. The book also covers a wide range of contemporary concerns, centring on the notion of difference in physical education and sporting contexts. Topics discussed include: • Gender, race and ethnicity. • The sporting body. • Participation and socialisation. • Critical pedagogy and the hidden curriculum. • Politics, sport and the mass media. Each chapter concludes with questions for discussion, and a selection of tasks and suggested further reading, making this an ideal basis for either individual study or for a lecture series. Anthony Laker is Degree Director in Physical Education in the Department of Exercise and Sport Science at East Carolina University in the USA. With contributions from Bob Chappell, Gill Clarke, Matthew Curtner-Smith, Brian Davies, John Evans, Barrie Houlihan, Barbara Humberstone, David Kirk, Doune Macdonald, Gareth Nutt, Dawn Penney, George Sage and Sandra A.

  • L DSHFC Hull Football Club Programmes 1916-2016
    Hull History Centre: Hull Football Club Programmes L DSHFC Hull Football Club Programmes 1916-2016 Extent: [50 boxes, 22 items] Historical Background: Hull Football Club was formed late in 1865, founded by amongst others, Beevor Lambert, E.W.Wade, E.Waltham and W.H.H. Hutchinson and the five Scott brothers, sons of Rev. John Scott of St Mary’s. Although it is not clear what rules governed early matches it would appear that they were played as soccer games with 11 players each side, and played in accordance with home club rules which led to differences in the rules at each game. At the annual meeting in the George Hotel, Land of Green Ginger, on 20th October 1870, the decision was taken to formally adopt the rugby rules and in 1871, after a nomadic existence, they moved on to the Rifle Barracks field in Anlaby Road, Hull, and became the first Yorkshire club to gain membership of the new Rugby Football Union. In 1895 the club moved to the Athletic Grounds in The Boulevard. August 1895 saw the start of Rugby League after the top Northern Rugby Union clubs broke away to form the “Northern Union”. It would be known as the Northern Union until 1922. Hull achieved success over the years. During the latter half of the 1950s they made three successive Championship Final appearances, 1956-58, winning in 1956 and 1958. 1953-55 saw them reach three successive Yorkshire Cup Finals and in 1959 they made their first Wembley appearance. These all resulted in defeats and was followed by another Championship Cup defeat at Wembley in 1960.

  • Clive Sullivan MBE
    Clive Sullivan MBE (09/04/1943 – 08/10/1985) Cardiff born Clive Sullivan MBE became the first Black man to captain any British International sports team. While still in the army at the age of 17 and after an unsuccessful trial with Bradford Northern, he was offered a trial at Hull FC where he made 352 appearances and scored 250 tries for Hull FC. For Hull KR, he scored 118 tries in 213 appearances. He had become the first man to score over 100 tries for both Hull clubs. To this day, Sullivan holds the club record for most career tries, as well as most tries in a single game (7) and most career hat tricks (20) by a Hull player. Sullivan also played for Oldham and Doncaster. In 1972, he was given the captaincy of the Great Britain Rugby League side and played two Tests against France. The Rugby league World Cup also took place that year and he captained the Great Britain side to become world champions. He scored a try in each of Great Britain’s four games. When he became captain of the Great Britain Rugby league team, he also became the first black Briton to captain any British national sports team. Overall, Sullivan made 17 appearances for Great Britain and scored 13 tries as well as making 19 appearances for Wales and scoring 12 tries. Clive Sullivan died in 1985 aged 42. Hull FC and Hull KR now remember Sullivan through the annual pre-season derby fixture – renamed the Clive Sullivan Trophy. The A63 road on the western edge of Hull was renamed ‘Clive Sullivan Way’ after his death – a fitting memorial that links both halves of the community which he served with distinction for nearly a quarter of a century.

  • Kiwis V Scotland
    Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 8th November 2017 The big game this weekend is this Saturday night in Hamilton when the Kiwis take on Tonga. #195 Kiwis v Scotland Elijah Taylor in action. Jason Nightingale of the Kiwis celebrates. Martin Taupau eludes Ben Hellewell. Peta Hiku scores a try. Photos courtesy of www.photosport.nz Predictable, But I Don’t Care By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan HE KIWIS walloped Scotland, and everyone knew they would, even if last time we faced them we did Tdraw. That was then, this is now. We scored a staggering 14 tries as we blew Scotland away, three each to Peta Hiku and Te Maire Martin. Even with a triple each, they did not get the headlines, because Shaun Johnson kicked nine goals and added a try for a22 point haul that made him the Kiwis top scorer of all time, with 175 points, overtaking some bloke called Matthew Ridge, who managed 168. I thought we were pretty bloody good across the park actually, although, let’s face it, the opposition was not up to much. The Kiwis scored an unanswered 28 points in the first half, then cut loose in the second. Johnson’s 22 points, added to his 14-point haul in the 38-8 victory over Samoa, gives him an impressive 36 for the tournament. The stats tell it all really, and they are what you would expect when one side is so dominant, the Kiwis with 196 runs against Scotland’s 84; 2079metres to 636; 31 offloads to six.
