| Nearly 30,000 on for a derby match (it was either 92 or 93) and IIRC Gus O'Donnell (for Wigan) attempting a drop-goal which Gary Connolly (for Saints) got a fingertip to in mid-flight so it didn't count. Think it finished 8-8, I was stood on the Kop anongst the Saints fans absolutely packed in like sardines

I think it was actually Gus O'Donnell playing for Saints who got a finger tip to the ball. A former St John Fisher lad as well.

He made a tremendous break from his own tryline on the right hand side and then went more or less corner to corner weaving in and out. Didn't we have a battle with Auckland for his services?

| Has anyone mentioned Tommy God scoring the last ever try there?
If so it's always worth a mention again
I'm watching the tape now
There were some very poor players on show that day for both teams.

Tommy Martyn was one of them.
The Saints halfbacks were overplayed by Clinch and Chester.
Jason Robinson was superb.

They couldn't see because of fireworks? How did that work? Were the fireworks on the pitch or just really distracting?

Tommy God produced 2 flashes of genius just the same as Robinson did the pass out of the back door to Sully was pure class. Just a shame he never brought his kicking boots.
Central Park 1 minutes silences were louder than the noise when Tommy went over for that last try

| Being 15 i only vaguely remember cp but the one outstanding memory i have was Wigan vs Bradford 97/98 season the 1 in the rain. i knew after that game that Wigan was for me. My grandads garden still has central park turf in it, a proud souvenier.
