Wasn't this the last ever Lancashire cup final? Maybe wrong but that's what I always thought. I remember Chris Joynt kicking through but wasn't quite quick enough to get to the ball. I think that was the closest we came to scoring. Was a great crowd and great atmosphere too. Wiganers even stayed until the end, well most of 'em anyway
It was the last ever Lancs cup final.
The venue was decided on the toss of a coin (the only thing that Saints won )
Great game, great crowd, great atmosphere and a great result.
As I said earlier, stick your fancy dan tick and pass superleague where the sun doesn't shine.
THAT WAS A GAME OF RUGBY LEAGUE OF THE FINEST ORDER.
No-one who left that ground felt that they hadn't had their moneys worth, and to use a Div expression, no-one was bothered about George Michael and the toilets.
Seriously, forget the result, because if they had played it a week later it could have been just as close but with a Saints win, which would you rather watch, todays game or that real battle.
