Your right about Mark but Wigans loss was our gain, on his day he was worth the admition money on his own.
Who will ever forget Wakey away when he put Warren Wilson in or HKR at home with his in and out weaving run across the field, dummy to Bentley and in at the corner.
I believe he came onboard for a fee of £50,000 in the days of the big transfer fee's and I think he was replaced by David Myers.
It was to do with him and his proffesion outside of the game that sparked it off, was he a solicitor or training to be one or something like that back in Poulton- le-Fylde whom he had played union for??
