Quote: MR FRISK "Morley Cassidy incedent was nearly 25 years ago
Now that would be a case for a red card! Remember it like yesterday. Pavilion end about 10m short of the halfway line. Revenge for Morley hitting McCormick I think.
I remember the Mills on Ashurst slightly differently. I was in the front of the stands with my dad, about 20 yards fron the action. Ashurst was tackled by a Widnes player a lying on his front. Mills was kneeling near his head and repeatedly gave him a barrage of about 5 blows to his head which shot backwards each time. It was absolutely vicious. It was horrible and I couldn’t believe what I was witnessing. Ashurst was unconscious and carried off on a stretcher and Mills was sent off immediately.
Made Cassidy seem like a pussycat!
I remember one at Central Park. I think it was Jeff Grayshon. He calmly walked out of the defensive line, floored a Wigan player then walked off the pitch before the ref had a chance to show him the red card.
I remember standing in the crowd thinking wtf just happened.

A couple of years ago I was in a bar in Tenerife (Tanyo's) and got chatting to a bloke in a Workington vest. Turned out he was an ex player - Billy Pattinson (just before my time) who told us in great detail how Bill Ashurst's elbow had broken his jaw.
