Biggest Regrets

[sheepdip]

Getting beat by Oldham in CC I remember the night well, got pulled and breath tested on way home. Carted off to Wigan Police Station and put on machine. Just under the limit. That was a lesson learnt. 87 I think

Missing the last game at central park

going to 85 final but being too drunk and not remembering the game. Ferguson and kenny were the best two players I have ever seen.

Best memory 27-0 at wembley

As a Wigan RLFC Supporter?

1) Not seeing Boston and McTigue live in their pomp

Anybody else?

Just to remind people of the CC match at Oldham Watersheddings in I think 1959 Wigan were down to be beaten yet again when Brian went over for a try near the posts in the first 5 mins 0-5 then rounded of by a BB special in the corner late in the second half to win 0-8. Seem to remember that BB was congratulated by some Oldham fan throwing a coin or stone at him. Oldham never again regained the dominence over Wigan from that day.

Losing at Oldham in the CC can't remember the year can still hear the commentator on the way home crowing about the millionaires being beaten

Cant remember the year myself, but it was at the water sheddings and it was full of snow and freezing!!!!!

Regarding the Salford CC match, I find it ironic that Steve Hampson was in that Salford team to end wigan's run, when he missed many a wembley fixture for wigan through injury.

No, I played Rugby too I went for a trial for Manchester University as part of a bet with my mate from Luton, I didn't even understand the rules but got into the 2nd team, played twice then got into the 1st team. The third nose-break was the final nail in my sporting coffin.
