Have you got the book Wigan RLFC 1895 - 1986
Look at page 45.
it looks as though Wakefield played in all white, and Wigan in a dark jersey (red or blue?)
We'll ask Billy on Monday.

I favour it was a lightish blue, but as you say we can ask William on Monday, looking forward to it already, wonder who'll be there ? |

I've always wondered if the old feller running onto the pitch is the same man celebrating behind the straw in your avatar picture.

| Quote: Andy Greg "are you not in the wrong book Brian Latics have Stripes and we have hoops ![]()
Latics initially played in red and white (styled like a Blackburn shirt) during the 30's and 40's before moving to blue and white (styled like Arsenal). The stripes were born in 78 when we were elected to the league.
IMO the shirt has to be cherry/white hoops. You can still play around a bit whilst keeping the hoops (see QPR and 'the poor relations of Glasgow Rangers' shirts)

I think it was v HKR at Leeds in a Challenge Cup semi final.'"
I'm sure we used to play in all-white in the late seventies, with the red adidas stripes down the sides. Can anyone confirm? |

All white with two or three red stripes down the sleeves IIRC. |

I've seen the video of Green Vigo scoring about 4 tries against Leeds in an all red shirt.

He scored three at Headingley in a JPS game, and caused the Leeds and England winger John Atkinson to retire.
They're on a video of 100 great RL tries |

That's where I've seen it, isn't it 101 great RL tries? Wigan had all red Shirt (possibly with white Adidas style stripes down the sleves, can't really remember).
Interesting note on the point about Leigh wearing Cherry and White before Wigan, In the Northern Union's first official Football annual Wigan were listed as 'Colours, Cherry and White' while Leigh were listed as 'Colours, White Jerseys and Blue Knikers'. |

If you were to search for "Wigan Warriors RLFC Legendary Tries (Part One)" on a video site, and wait until 1 min 41 secs, you might well see 2 of those tries from 1977.
