When the next tenant took over they apparently threw out a lot of old memorabilia that was left behind.

There was a similar photo taken in 1977 at the home fixture between Widnes and Bradford Northern, which was also Ray Dutton's testimonial game. Great days.

Maybe they did drink a fair bit, but with a pack of Mills Elwell Shaw Dearden O'Neill and Adams, we wouldn't lose many fights.

In the words of Max Boyce "I was there". Great days, great players of which we will not see the likes again for some time--if ever.
