Drew 10-10........Wigan were VERY lucky to scrape a draw, however battered them 34-4 in the replay.
Lovely little stand, yes I was one of the 3,968 there that day. Will have to try and dig out some actual photo's of the game.

Me too!
In fact a story for 1 or 2 of the older Generation!
If you remember the story about Murph & Sash coming out of the Bramley club 5 minutes before kick off and being lambasted by a Supporter for not being in the dressing rooms to "F***ing get em going!" ?
I was stood next to him, it was my uncle!
PS
I'd also been in the Club 1/2 hour earlier and the strippers they had in the club were belting, especially for a 12 year old in the corner with a coke & a bag of crisp!
No wonder Murph & Sash didn't come out early!

The guy who owned the Chippy in Abram called "Big Al's" up until about 10 years ago played that day for Bramley, apart from the Al bit I can't remember the rest of his name!
