Memories of playing for Standish back around then. Always remember Gary Walsh ( went on play for Man U ) batting in red pads for Poolstock. I believe he was also a decent rugby player.

He may well have been but he played football for Poolstock and they went unbeaten for at least 2 years.

The standard across the board in Wigan has declined cricket wise.

Standish CC I would say peaked with Roland Horridge as captain.
