Sorry if this has been posted already I don't come here much, Rugby League Night on BBC4 tonight including 78 cup final. I 've never seen it on TV cause I was there, St Helens fans giving me toffees to stop shouting LEEDS and 2p off the Leeds fans for shouting, great day and great game. Somehow think giving money and toffees to an 8 year old would be frowned up these days without a CRB check, and the worlds a poorer place for it.

Lucky bugger.......it was the two cup finals of 77 and 78 that persuaded my old now deceased dad to "stop throwing his money at the football prima donnas" and start taking me and my bro to watch a " cup winning side ".....little did he know what was to come. Still it got me hooked and I will always have the pleasure of knowing some of the all time greats.. ( my good christian stock mother was persuaded to go once....unfortunately we picked the visit of Hull FC to baptise her. .Suffice to say the fishwife foul language put her off ever attending again.....nothing ever changes in some cases. ) |

| The last sporting event my old man took me to before he died! 
Took a big Union Jack flag with LEEDS in alternating blue and yellow letters made from cut up football shirts and when we got there we were stood in the predominantly St Helens end! Not a whiff of trouble. Great day out. |

Leeds Rhinos? 8 for you, Leeds Rhinos! You go, Leeds Rhinos.
And none for Castleford Tigers. Bye!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1140.jpg |

I wish I'd been able to go when you could stand at Wembley. The atmosphere must have been something else.

Slowly.
I still have some of the Wembley turf from that final in '78, I think Les Dyl scraped it off his boot and flung it at me.

| Liptrot was a mile offside for that first try. Why didn't Billy go to the video ref?

Scrum against the head 10 yards from the Leeds line. Shocking.

Nah then young uns.
That's a penalty for feeding. Ask your Dad or even your Grandad.
All scrums were like that, even the Hon Secretary is getting all emotional now.
Thanking you kindly.
