widnes new era : Sat Jul 02, 2011 7:18 pm
had a few pints and reminiscing over the old days. i first started supporting wire in the late 80's and have bad memories of you panning us a few times.my dad used to play for widnes rugby union and played alongside the o'neils and mylers before they swapped codes and played rl so i have a soft
spot for you chemics although i didn't enjoy the wire being on the end of a tonking. back in the days you had an outstanding side and i remember
being at naughton park when you beat wigan in a top 2 clash to decide the title which you won. also went to old trafford to see the game v canberra
raiders where you came back from 12 - 0 to win the world cc. i wish you good luck when you return to your rightful place in sl.
ps.
i remember this line up very well-
tait, offiah,currier,wright,deverouu,t.myler, hume, sorenson,mcensie,grima,o'neil,koloto and richie eyers. one of the best sides ive ever seen
and i haven't included davies, kebbie, spruce, moriarty, holiday, d, hume.
