Probably the best - at the very least the best I've seen.

What we'd give for his likes down here nowadays.

Deceptively quick, safe hands, great goalkicker and chimed into the line like all good full backs should. All that without having the athletes physique you see today!!

Re: Game this Sunday : Thu Jun 10, 2010 7:29 pm  

Certainly remembered today, even by those fans unfortunate enough not to have seen him.

Re: Game this Sunday : Thu Jun 10, 2010 8:28 pm  

Probably our best ever fullback, and we’ve had some belters over the years, including Tait, Dutton and Spruce.

I hope you enjoy the game and the experience, when you come to the Stobart.

If you can get here early enough pre game you can grab a £2 discount from the club shop which is in the town centre easily accessed from the ASDA car park ( http://www.widnesvikings.co.uk/page.php?id=635 )- the little un may not be seen at the turnstyle by a less than observant operator ! The discount from the club shop only applies if you buy your ticket PRE-matchday.. so unless you can get someone else to pick up tickets for you then your going to have to pay full price. You can purchase tickets on match day from the ground in the Stadium Fitness Reception situated in the corner between the South and East Stands. I recomend the North stand for the better atmosphere but if you want to protect your little-un from the noise and occational profanities then there is a family section in the south stand.

the family stand also has the advantage that its usually in the shade, which means its cooler on hot days, (but freezing on all other days)

What can I say? You're all top people! Cheers for all the info and the positive comments about Mick Burke, I'm sure he'd be made up knowing he's still so fondly remembered.

As for wearing my Hudds shirt on Sunday, naaa I'll be wearing my Vikings top when in Rome and all that!
