Saints aren't the rivals of Wigan...they just don't like you. Simple.

Attended this as a 12 year old on a school trip from Hull. Warrington had a great team at the time captained by Harry Bath and included Brian Bevan.

Widnes had Colin Hutton at fullback and the following year he came to play for Hull FC for half a dozen seasons.

I so loved that first trip to Wembley that I went to every CC final thereafter until I left England in 1966. Saw Widnes win it in 1964 when they beat Hull KR.

What cars do you and your wife drive (I’m assuming you’re the bloke on Redvee that even they don’t believe).

Every post from this fool is just based on trolling.

I agree with Lefty, mods please do us all a favour.

Thanks.

No to fussed about went on in the 1920s and who beat or lost to batley ..the present is what I'm interested in..but I do grin that our last to games against the champs we've conceded just 4 points picked a trophy up at there expense.. And just nilled em....

REDVEE is OK. He's not personal to anyone...which is unacceptable.
(Although if he is a mod on their forum, then he's guilty if allowing other's to be personal to me.)

He adds some comical value and adds some gravitas to the stella season we have ahead.

I get posters ripping me all the time. So long as it's that then it's fair game.

There are just twelve teams in SL. Any fan of any team who considers one of the other eleven as a 'joke' reveals far more about their own ignorance and arrogance then they do about the true status of the other teams in the comp.

Sorry to interupt an argument but I recall that Wire team early 80's.Bob Eccles, Ken Kelly, Hesford,Potter, Case etc.Anyone remember a game at Wilderspool when Widnes turned up without kit and played in Warrington shirts ?

I remember us playing at Cas in their alternative strip and we whooped them.

I was at Wheldon Rd that day RD. Couldn't believe it when we ran out in Cas' white away kit. Okker forgot to load the kit box I think. We should have kept that strip as it was the best we played that season. John Woods was untouchable that afternoon.
Don't remember us repeating the kit gaff though.

Lol...that has always been my thought....we had more success beating boiled eggs until we played in that Cas kit.

Yep I remember that, wouldn’t have remembered it being Widnes though , have you got any more details?

Not withstanding that,

Thing is tho it makes me recall an old teaser that I dined out on many times, which was “When was the last time the great Mickey Adams played in a Warrington shirt” ?

The answer was in a testimonial at Wilderspool, Adams played for the opposition in the first half, and for Wires in the second half.

Not sure whose testimonial tho, Parry Gordon, John Bevan, and there was one game that Brian Bevan had a cameo and scored a try.

And not forgetting Rod Stewart treating us to his dribbling skills at Wilderspool one Sunday afternoon.
