Lost track of the number of times I've watched the dvd of this match - second half in particular - it replaced the Good Friday match of 2003 against Saints in my most watched category and like someone else I am word perfect with the commentary, even Eddie's spluttering when he couldn't quite believe what was happening. Have only watched it a couple of times after Terry Newton's death as that wiped the smile off my face good style. Thing was we were all just resigned to a loss for a large part of the match and there was a kind of quiet, calm, resignation about the fans which was transformed over a 20 minute period into utter disbelief and pure joy.

I remember it well coz i took a friend who hadnt really followed much rugby league, i wanted him to witness the passion involved in a play off game and by half time i honestly thought we'd muffed it. Calderwood's 1st try got a bit of a cricket ripple from us away fans. i must confess i did start shouting COME ON WIGAN!! at the top of my voice to try and instill some faith amongst the travelling fans....... seemed to work lol :wink:
