David Doyle-Davidson is a legend in local rugby league. He wore a black and white shirt for Hull FC more than 200 times, also coaching the Airlie Birds to promotion from Division Two in season 1977/78 winning 22 of their 26 games. He also took them to the John Player Number Six final in January 1976.
The Doyle’s playing career spanned 11 years from 1961 to 1972 in which he played 208 games, scoring 23 tries and 1 goal. He coached from May 1974 to December 1977.
Rugby League is a passion to DDD – every fixture is special. He’ll be providing full exciting commentary on all home and away games for KCFM 99.8 – and he’ll be first with news on the players along with a catalogue of information gathered over many years of being associated with the game. The Doyle has been the main anchor presenter for Rugby League on BBC Radio Humberside over the last 25 years – choosing to join KCFM in June this year.
The Doyle will be presenting the KCFM 99.8 Super League Show for all Hull FC games with Simon Sephton and Chris Price – on Friday and Saturday evenings and on Sunday afternoons. He will also be taking part in our KCFM 99.8 Sportscall discussion programmes before and after all live commentary games – giving the supporters a chance to have their say on all Hull FC matters.
Our policy is to be ‘first for sport’ – and with the region’s number one Rugby League commentator joining our team – it confirms our promise to provide the very best for our KCFM 99.8 listeners.
