First Match you saw: Wire v Wigan around 1954. I was a 10 year old and went with my dad, remember being in awe at the size of the crowd, wondering who the old man wrapped in bandages was playing for the Wire. My dad said "That's the great Bev" and was he great. Never been a winger like him since, nobody can touch that record. I'm proud to have seen him play.
Favourite match: Warrington v Australia 1978.
Worst match: Warrington v Wigan Challenge Cup Semi-Final in 1989 at Maine Road - that Joe Lydon drop goal.
