Good times, being born in the late 80's was never really old enough to remember NP in the days of the 'cup kings' and so on, however I do remember legging on and mobbing the players at HT and after the final hooter on occasion. Once I got knocked over by Jason Green, not on purpose you understand.
Once we even played tick and pass on the pitch at HT against Featherstone.

At least he did that to someone while he was playing for Widnes!

I always remember running on to get Emosi Koloto's tie ups, running into him then bouncing off him as I grabbed them..

Then there was the time we were on sky in the early nineties, we were getting beat by Wigan and I thought the game had ended, I ran on and gave Shaun Edwards a mouthful about being a cheating pie eating git only to look up and see all the players running back to take a kick off from a penalty.. Needless to say I made a sharp exit...

The late 80s and early 90s were a great time to be a Widnes fan. For anyone whose not witnessed our team at the top you have my sympathy... Hopefully the good times will return soon.

Was that the same afternoon somebody stood in the cowshed threw a egg at Shaun Edwards?
Don't remember being there, but remember hearing the story from a few eye witnesses and spotting it on TIW ages ago. Shameful really when you think about, but never mind.
