"It's a really great year for Wigan" - Tony Blackburn

Apologies, just catching up with the Top Of The Pops reruns on BBC4 and they have got to 20th March 1975.
Tony Blackburn was introducing Wigan's Ovation and spoke these prophetic words! - I'm trying to get them as a ring tone.

I worked with Jimmy McCluskey at Royal Bolton Hospital as a porter back in 1991.

Fantastic fella, really fun guy to be around however when questioned, he admitted that he was bitter how the band got screwed over by their record company
Back by demand.
