| I'm an old fart who is old enough to have seen Brian Bevan play the game. As a boy I used to wait for the great man at the back of the main stand at Wilderspool every home game to ask him to sign my programme. He seemed to be a very shy man who gave me the impression he didn't really want to sign, but he did, in very small, neat handwriting BBevan. Over time he came to recognise me and I didn't have to ask. He was my hero truly an all time great.To look at him in his civvies, long gaberdine raincoat, his boots in a neat paper parcel under his arm you'd never guess he was a RL all time great His World try scoring record probably won't ever be broken. I fell in love with the game and was a season ticket holder for many years. BUT around five years ago I walked out of the HJ and haven't been back since. The game was overcoached, formulated and any flair and spontoneity was long gone. I could close my eyes for a couple of minutes open them again and I knew where the ball was within about 10 yards. I still follow the game via TV but rarely last more than 20 minutes. I've better things to do like picking the fluff from my deeply sunken navel

| I know we have gone slightly 'off topic' a bit here but were you the Wolfie with the Chicken? Always made me smile and your reactions to the failed attempts were great ..... if it was you that is
