He may be thousands of miles across the Atlantic but Andy Walker remembers his roots and is as keen as ever to play his part in our Championship journey.

Andy, who hails from Joseph Street in Hunslet, now runs the “Across the Pond Bed and Breakfast” business in North Carolina with his wife Mary. Last year they sponsored the Workington Town game and have continued their long-distance support by sponsoring Hunslet TV for the 2025 season.

“I can’t wait for the season to start. I’ve been following all the pre-season activity on social media, and this is as excited as I have been for many a year.”

We know what you mean, Andy. It promises to be a rollercoaster of a season, but one we can’t wait for. On behalf of everyone at the Club, thank you for your support.

Hunslet fans, if you are ever over in North Carolina, be sure to call and see Andy. He has a fantastic collection of Hunslet memorabilia, including Eric Batten’s 1938 Championship Final jersey.
