Hide AdRovers-mad Charlie, who attended his first Hull KR game aged just 10 days old, has learnt all the words to the song which singer Andy Bell performed before the match.
His father Richard, 41, who admits his son is “obsessed” with the Robins, said: “He is a little character.
“He is a fanatical Rovers fan, and he absolutely loves (Hull KR player) Josh Mantellato.

“You want to see him around the players. He just goes and introduces himself and can’t understand why he’s not centre of attention.”
Eighties legend Bell was invited to the KC Lightstream Stadium after fans adopted the A Little Respect anthem during last season’s Challenge Cup final run which ended in a Wembley defeat to Leeds Rhinos.

And the 80’s superstar must have enjoyed Charlie’s rendition as he re-tweeted the now viral video of the blonde-haired, blue-eyed youngster singing his tune.
