I think he may have played for Ince one or two times, but it was a long time ago

There you go.

One pro wrestler who did play for Wigan was big Ste Breheny. Think he went under the name Buffalo Breheny or something.

im pretty sure thomas billington did .but all i can remember is david had a few photos with golborne parkside

just asked his brother and he said he had a trial at wigan and they offerd him a contract but he turned it down and carried on wrestling

I need to see this.

I played for Parkside and Dave came down during a game v Normanton knights.

Tommy never played for Wigan, it's my best mate's dad. I've read his Autobiography, Thomas Billington aka Dynamite kid never played for Wigan lol

Anybody got the link for Jake Roberts wearing a Wigan shirt?

Interestingly (or not) Big Daddy was on Bradford's books but never got a first team game.

He was also frightened of Wrestling my Dad's uncle, who was a wrestler by the name of Billy Joyce. I'd guess that only a few on here would remember him.

I thin k I remember Billy Joyce. Did he used to work at Kirkless workshops?

Maybe as a youngster but that wasn't his real name. He worked down the pit for a while but he then owned a shop and pub.

This bloke was late 50's or something like that and this was probably about 1980 ish. My dad knew him and said he once got hold of him and turned him upside down in an instant. I was bricking it in case he did it to me.Must have been someone else then
