Good clip. Was that a Young Roger Millward during the intro? Think the half back could have been the lad who lived near Alex forgotten his last name but I remember we called him 'Jinkin Jimmy'

Correct, David Wood, another local product of St Patricks.

I had the pleasure or misfortune to play against him when i was in my early 20s and he was in his mid 40s. He could still dictate play without having to break sweat or movevery much at all.He could also get his elbow up and throw a punch before you could blink (which to my misfortune found out). I think he played for Bridge in St Helens.

Didnt he loose an eye i seem to remember.
