Huddersfield away in the season we got promoted, fantastic atmosphere.

Anyone remember that bi shark that would get tossed about the crowd at away games and whoever it ended up with had to bring it back for the next away trip.

Was this game for adults only?

I was going to edit the typo but thought I'd leave it to see who would be the first to crack a joke about a bi shark.

I've got loads of memories from back then....but one of my favourites has to be the pre season friendly with Rervers.

David Baildon linked up with Fili Seru down the Threepenny Stand side late in the second half to run the length of the field.

I also remember the first game of the 1999 season - Gilmour scoring a hatrick as Wigan smashed us at Central Park (and I got salmonella off a pork pie i ate on the bus over there!)

All in all a terrible couple of seasons resultswise - but looking back it was a great feeling to be in the Super League after the years in the wilderness.

And running down the best stand side (I know ) at craven park with his arm in the air celebrating before he scored.

From what I remember he got a bollocking for it.

Ironic thing was, it actually appeared that he lost the ball going over the line being tackled by Jon Adams IIRC correctly, so it could (and probably should) have been a costly premature celebration.
