Quote: Mild mannered Janitor "At 10 points down I would agree. At 8 points down it puts you only one score away from being level.
Think back to the '82 final first half. Lloyd kept us in the game with 3 goals. Think back to the '84 Yorks cup final. Crookes went for goal when we were 12 - 0 down.'"
In the 1982 draw at Wembley Widnes led 6-0 after a fourth minute drop goal and a converted try (tries being worth three points then, of course). Sammy Lloyd then kicked three penalties to draw us level at 6-6. He missed one of the two conversions in the second half but without those three penalties we would have lost.
