| The 19-0 which was actually Easter Monday rather than Good Friday!
Tommy's sublime pass inside to Peter Shiels and the KC's wonder tackle on Mark Smith in the corner.
Remember just waiting for you guys to come back at us. Fortunately it didn't happen!
What a game!

That was a game Wigan could have won. Julian O'Neil made two breaks early in the game and chose to dummy when he had players in support who would have scored.
The 5 -4 game in the Lancashire Cup Final was one of the fiercest fought and most enjoyable games I have ever seen.

| The first time I ever saw Wigan live was a good Friday clash @ KN back in 86 or 87 i think.
I can't remember the score but I'll always remember my first sight of Hanley and Gill. I've been watching Wigan ever since because of those two players that day.

| Quote Two Wheeled Saint="Two Wheeled Saint"Bobbie Goulding stiff arm on Cowie, what a game that was.
I though we was in for a right pasting in the second half.'"
watched that game again last night on youtube.
the tackle from Goulding was one of the worst you will ever see - followed by an all in brawl  was this also the game that Andy Farrell tried smacking Newlove off the ball late on, Newlove just stood up laughing and pointed at the scoreboard.

He punched Newlove as Newlove played the ball. Square on his chin and newlove just laughed at him. Newlove actually said at a fans forum it was the softest punch he had ever received whilst playing rugby.

| Quote Bilko="Bilko"Easy. Boxing Day 1994.
20-2 up at Half Time but down to 12 men after Henry Paul had been sent off for an (accidental?) trip. This after Adam Fogerty had got just a yellow card for headbutting Neil Cowie (both got sin binned)
Into the second half we went down to 11 men twice. First in a 13 v 11 situation and then a 12 v 11 situation after Skerrett and Pickavance had a biff. In this time Saints came back to lead 25-20 with 7 minutes left.
Bobby Goulding had missed a conversion to make it 27-20 and from the restart Steve Prescott knocked on. Moments later Tuigamala hammered his way over from 30 metres out to make it 26-25 to Wigan and we eventually won 32-25 with as I said a man short.'"
My all time favorite game also.
Why cant RL be like that nowadays?
I will be giving Mircon a ring shortly methinks!!!

| Quote nohalfbacks="nohalfbacks"1984 Challenge Cup 3rd round mud bath. A 20007 crowd saw Wigan win 16-7 but the game was in the balance right to the end. That was arguably a turning point in Wigan's fortunes and we all know what happened in the decade that followed. The Wigan fans that day sensed that something had changed for the better. The atmosphere was electric. Will Friday confirm Wigan's renaissance or be just another disappointment? Either way I can't wait to find out.'"
That was the one was were we changed our shirts at half time into the St Helens away strip

Murphy was about to substitute Pendlebury before he scored.
Was that David Stepensons debut?

No, he made his debut v. Saints in the C.cup
at KR in Feb 82, scored 2 tries and a drop goal in a 12-20 victory.

I thought it was against Saints at KR, just got the year wrong.
