Full Kangaroo tours. That fabulous moment when the green and gold shirts came out onto the pitch at Post Office Road, Wheldon Road, Belle Vue.
or
Missing school on a mid-week afternoon to watch a cup replay in the days before floodlights.

i remember once going to huyton and midway through the first half there was a big explosion outside of the ground, folk said whats that but game carried on, at half time annoucer came on over tannoy can the owner of such and such car reg please report to the main office as your car as just been blown up, classic memories.

also remember once at old station road ground at swinton, everybody having to get on pitch with players because of a bomb scare, and a old guy refusing to get out of his seat in stand because he had sat there for 50 years

aye i still remember fartown leading the aussies 2-0 for a while at the old leeds road grond in '92, we lost 66-2 but for a short while, we, a 2nd division club at the time were beating the aussies !! cant ever take moments like that away

When I was a kid .... Asking my parents "What should I be ?"

The stench must have been unbearable.
Didn't he at least go home for his tea?
That 10 bob he originally spent getting in the ground lasted a bloody long time.

Turquoisey/blue three wheeler disabled cars behind the sticks.

Play getting held up while they caught the stray dog on the pitch.

Collars tucked in, shorts and sleeves rolled up as far as they could go - always a good ploy to make scrum halves look 'hard'.


A. N. Other on the subs bench.

Cowboy cars.

walking as slow as you could over the main road towards central park so youd hold the traffic up that little bit longer.....haha

Watching rugby league, as opposed to "super" league.

scrum halves dominating every aspect of play for 80 minutes..

if we are talking about the memories of peoples youth and assume there are many people in their fortys on here, then how about GB beating australia in a test series.
