Introduction

In the early part of the 20th century the Goldthorpe name was one of the most respected names in the game of Northern Union Football.

"Albert Goldthorpe is, was and always will be a legend wherever the sport of rugby league is played for he was a true sportsman. He was Leeds' first sporting superstar", so says author Bryan Smith in his book 4 Cups to Fame.

"Three principles - Community, Integrity & Character made Albert Goldthorpe the great man he was" said Rugby League Historian Professor Tony Collins.
