I wouldnt get my hoes up for this one!

I attended the NWC awards at Lanc CC years ago and Geoff Probyn was guest speaker. He got booed off halfway through a story about touring Argentina, I actually felt sorry for the guy, it was that bad!

Sorry to dissapoint you, but the question and answer session was cancelled.

This was however a blessing in disguise - as Lymm Rookie alluded to earlier, we too were treated to Geoffs/Jeffs musings of a tour to Argentina, which was as about as entertaining as watching the preverbial paint dry.

And for those of you getting hot under the collar regarding my tongue in cheek suggestion for a question, I played over 350 games of Rugby Union at a pretty good standard. I have forgotton more than most people know about the differences between the two codes, and the different qualities that are required to play each game. I have played competitive Rugby Union against international players and I have also played Rugby Union at a lesser standard with many ex Rugby League players, including a sprinkling of Warrington "legends". .

They all have my respect, and I at least hope that I have theirs.

Sale Sharks up until last weekend were second in the GP - they also have the whole of the North West to draw on given that they are the only top level RU side in the area - yet their average gates for this season are lower than Warringtons - I don`t need to tell you where we sit in the current SL table ...

I had a few run outs at Warrington RU when we had no League fixtures played with Tamati, Gary Tees, Thursfeild and the O'neil brothers ??

some crazy moment in a few of those games

did you play at warrington with those players ?

FAO Worthing wire: It was the 1987 campaign where England failed to score a try. However, rather than winning it, they actually came bottom with two points. Hope this puts your mind at rest.

Mr Biscuit - It seems that you and I have something in common! Yes I did play in some of those matches.....so perhaps it seems you know me!?

You're not Jimmy Ryder are you? If not, are you Pete the Pipe??

No, neither am I Mike Cornelia, Peter (Tufty) Riley, Alan Peaker, Steve Hennesey or for that matter Rick Giles.

Geezer?* I've never seen a bloke run so far from full back at every given penalty to grab the ball for a kick at goal regardless of where the penalty was given.

I reckon his username is an anagram of his true identity

Surely its not the one and only Tiw Leskol

I was one of the Judges former Laportes players

I always liked to keep Warrington guardian match reports and I have this from
