| I drove to the game with two friend, one a Wigan fan, the other supported Saints. We parked the car at Stanmore and caught the train in to Wembley, and arranged to meet back at the car after the game.
Saints friend did not look happy when we got back there. He was expecting a quiet return journey, but my Wigan supporting mate gave him hell for about three hours.
Dropped the car off at home around 9 p.m. and went on the razz.(minus Saints mate)

| Found the ticket for this game yesterday in a box of old papers! Hadn't missed a game all season then missed Ellerys wonder try because I was bursting for a wee and couldn't hold out til half time.

| Just picked up on this thread. I was there as well, stood in the bottom paddock. Gary Connolly, playing as an amateur, IIRC, dropped the first punt downfield, Kevin Iro scored his first try following this, and it never improved for Saints at all for the rest of the afternoon.
I remember thinking 'how the ell did he score that?' as Hanley weaved in and then out, before gliding away to score under the posts. It was the first part of the payback for the two 1960s losses.

And unlike the second of those, this one was achieved entirely fairly.
