Has sadly rlpassed awayrl aged 69.

RIP.

That's a really good article on Tommy. I remember him as a honest, skilful and rugged player who was a joy to watch. Thanks for the memories Tom.

Tommy Martyn was a fantastic player, a fast and elusive runner who was also en excellent ball player. If Ben Currie can get close to Tommy's standard over the next few years then younger fans might get some idea as to just how good a player Tommy was. RIP.

what a ball player he was RIP TOM

The legends continue to leave us, RIP Tommy.

Master of the "Cumbrian Throw" and as Asgardian said "an elusive runner". One of those players who was capable of making something out of nothing...I always thought Wigan would be sniffing round trying to poach him. RiP TM

being of a certain vintage,i remember most of the games that tommy martyn played for us.along with perhaps two other of our players i really wanted to have a drink with was tommy.perhaps the best back row forward we ever had.he was a magician,offloading was his game,rarely tied down even with three or four holding him,out it popped,straight to his target.he was a magnificent bloke,they dont make'em like tommy any more.genuinely sad at his passing.thoughts are with his family.

Remember seeing him playing one particular game at Wilderspool.

Can't remember who we were playing but he gave one of his trade mark passes to a supporting Ken Kelly who flew in under the opposition posts at the railway end from about half way.

One of my favourite players.

R.I.P.

Another one of the heroes from my youth gone. I remember Tommy playing at Wilderspool in a game against Bradford one Sunday afternoon, it would be about 1977. He absolutely stuffed them virtually single handed during the first half, running from deep and making several tries. Just before halftime he pulled a hamstring and went off. Despite this he was still awarded man of the match, despite playing less than a full half. Tremendous forward. RIP Tommy.

Tommy would have been a revelation playing today, slipping those sublime passes - his try against Wigan straight from the kick off in the Lancashire cup final is one of my treasured memories - a true Wire legend

I remember being at a Testimonial Dinner at the Lymm hotel many years ago when Tommy was still playing. During the interval he said to some of the other players, " Did you see that Gordon McQueen on the top table ( McQueen lived in Lymm when he was playing for Man Utd ), he's supposed to be a hard man. I would f*****g snap him in half.... Compared to the Warrington lads, Mc Queen did look like a long streak of nothing. Nice one Tommy,one of my favourite all time Warrington forwards.
