'A thoroughly good human being who cared deeply about the sport': Rugby league pays tribute after death of respected journalist Ian Laybourn
Tributes are being paid across rugby league to a respected journalist after his death aged 67. Ian Laybourn was one of the sport's best-loved reporters and worked to cover games across the region.
A lover of the 13-man code, he worked in and around the sport for most of his adult life. Ian started out with the Batley News then the Huddersfield Examiner, before joining the Press Association in 1994 and becoming their rugby league correspondent two years later, reports Yorkshire Live. A man whose passion was the sport, tributes are flooding in from fellow journalists, current and ex-players who Ian interviewed over the course of his career, supporters and club media teams across the country.
