You beat me to it Staffs

As I remember that game the teams were drawing when Wigan got the pen from long range, that's why they went for goal rather than kicking for touch and seeing out time.

Completely agree with Coddy best ever ending to a game I've seen If I remember rightly it was March 88 and the second game in for Dean and Hepworth in charge after Casey went. It went something like this,

We were level with a minute to go and conceeded a penalty on half way after Terry Regan shoulder charged Goodway. The penalty from Lydon fell just short Pearce fields it, sides stepped the Wigan chasers and ran 40 yards passed onto Dick onto McCaffrey who scored as the hooter went. The pitch had to be cleared of dancing FC fans so that the conversion could be taken.

Imagine the amount of 40-20s we would get if he was playing now,without doubt,the best kicker i have seen at Hull since i 1st went in 1975.

He would have had a field day.

He's fat, he's round, he's worth a million pound - Gary Pearce, GARY PEARCE!!!!

Great player and i was also there at Cas when his career was basically ended.

Thats probs his waist & inside leg now!

A great kicking game with either foot.

I was there....a wonderful night,right up there in best games ever.

2 great games , at the boulevard the wigan players for some reason wondered what what happening when Pearce ran the ball in from Lydons Kick ! The Night at central park was amazing coleman and pearce bossed the pitch ..

Didn't Coleman do his pass behind the back to Divorty during the Central Park game?

He did indeed. There was a great "Ooooh" from the crowd when it happened and Paul Fletcher romped over to the right of the posts. I was working in Coventry and drove up and met my mate who was living in Bolton, I think, at the time.

I've got the Micron video, Shaun Edwards was interviewed afterwards and, talking about Hull, came up with a classic quote... "I knew they were good but I didn't know they were that good".

I've got both the wigan games on DVD copied from Micron videos. The last minute try is my favourite memory of the boulevard.

Was it raining? I don't remember that! But then again I was so ecstatic at the time it could have been raining actual cats and dogs and wouldn't have noticed
