Quote: Bilko "That saved draw at Keighley probably sealed Wigan's promotion mathematically looking at the final table and it being the third last game.
David Walsh was the player.
Of them grounds their can't be too many left. Fulham's still there, albeit not for Rugby League. Batley are still at Mount Pleasant and Whitehaven at Rec Ground. I think thats it.'"
I've still got the programmes for most of these games in my dads garage! For some reason I cut the 'Fart' bit out of Fartown from the front of my Huddersfield programme. The home win against York was another crucial one, we were neck and neck with them all season.
I recall the Keighley game being a big one as the whole family including my grandma went over for it and there being much celebration at the end. Stephens was the saviour on more than one occasion that season, I think he was signed mid-season from Cas? either way he made a difference and probably was the key man in us going back up.
