<t>OK I haven't read every word on this topic but, apart from IL and SW being useless and should say they want Sam to stay, where are the constructive suggestions as to exactly what they should be doing to achieve this??<br/> <br/> Has anyone considered that they know Sam is going, so are planning f...

<r>Could I add my two penn'orth?<br/> <br/> Much as I may love my job, if I can earn double elsewhere I have a right to go. Sam's career is likely to be over in 10 years or so - as has been said, the choice is his. Who would deny him the same right we all have - to make our own decisions?<br/> <br/>...

<r><QUOTE author="KOOCH"><s>[quote="KOOCH"]</s>I said previous to the game that I had every faith in the youngsters and that we would come away with a win.We have also eradicated the hex that is.

<t>I saw the programme and, yes, it lacked analysis, failed to name clubs, negative etc etc . . .

. . . or Leroy Rivett, first player to score 4 tries in a Wembley final? [Only joking!]

<r>Thanks for that, Josie - I'm a bit old for this computer lark <EMOJI seq="1f60a">:blush:</EMOJI> <br/> I thought of Sid Abram because of his link with 1st final at Wembley. If we're talking wingers in full flight, it would have to be Billy Boston and/or Tom Van Vollenhoven well ahead of Martin Of...

<t>1965 as a 13 year old, Wigan v Hunslet. Got it on video and it's still a great game (don't believe all the "up the jumper" stuff).<br/> 1984, lost to Widnes but they were an ageing team, we had a 17 year old Shaun Edwards. I said to my wife on the way out, "We'll be back!"<br/> 1985 with an 8 yea...
