It was on Sky, or whatever it was called back then. I remember watching the tape. Hanley might have played, but I've slept since then, and tend to forget lots of stuff when I sleep.

Cas Vs Leeds, Last year at ze jungle. 4 idiots dressed as Elvis. Top day.

Warrington away = top draw banter.

Saints away, allways a good match. (ali in 2005 a personal highlight)

Harlequins = Fast becoming my personal fave.

3rd November 1991. Hanley was playing for Leeds that season but wasn't needed that night at Central Park.

My favourite was one of Peter Fox's last games in charge when we went to Leigh (date TVOC?). We had a banner, "Fox get out!" and stood opposite the dugouts in the first half. In the second half I was laid on top of the away dugout screaming at Fox to "Get out!".

Not sure of the dates on these, but 2 away days stand out for me :

First was away at Cas in the Premiership when Schoey scored late to win the game, after being sin binned earlier when he had a try disallowed.

The second was Warrington away, I think it was in the John Gallagher days, when Leeds had made a poor start to the season. No one gave them a chance and considering how many supporters were there from Leeds (not many), it showed.

Anyhow, we won 22-10, I'm pretty sure Simon Irving was playing too, and because there weren't that many fans there we seemed to all huddle together singing out hearts out. It was the first time my Mum had driven me to an away game so it was like travelling in luxury, and even though we took a wrong turn and ended up at Manchester Airport on the way back it didn't matter !!!

Were you on the Wally Arnold bus? Did you have the banner up outside the ground as the team arrived? I remember that day, we had the good grace to wait till the Leeds team had performed like spanners before we went to the dugout and gave him grief. That's the only time I've ever done that, I've never been as f****d off with a team.

They're funny aren't they. Forward passes arent allowed but they only lost becuase they didnt get away with a forward pass.

What was all the more remarkable was Leeds were missing about 6 first teamers that night IIRC.
