Quote: Fatbelly "My choice of the best ever Wire comeback is our win at Langtree Park last September.
We were 14 - 6 down with 2 minutes to half time against a Saints side that had been to 5 consecutive Grand Finals & knew how to play & win the games that mattered.
On the 38th minute we had the ball in the Saints 20 metres line and Woody somehow got an off load out of a 3 man tackle, Monas M got the ball & passed it to His Royal Highness King Lee who passed on to Simon Grix who had ran the perfect line & went over the line carrying 2 Saints players. This try meant we went in only 14 - 12 down & the rest is Wire history.
What a night I had that night.'"
That was going to be my choice, we got to St Helens not long after 12 and it was the longest afternoon of my life, couldn't enjoy the ale at all. There was a horrible sense of inevitability and 'here we go again', then the rest as you write is history! It didn't sink in for me until we got back to the Chapel House in Sankey, sat down and said right what are we doing about grand final tickets? Brilliant.
