Collier scored the winning try against Widnes I believe. According to Wembley71's sister Ray French, on the radio, announced the try scorer as Currier which as you can imagine threw her for a while. Rember Dean Hanger scoring a try out of the blue which put us in with a chance.

Simms was present at the Saints win but only took control of the team at the next match.

Best match for me at Widnes was JP quarter final when Des scored 3 tries and we won 35-31 or something like that. Those were the days.

I've still got this game on video. One of the funniest moments is when Troy Clark chips over the Widnes defence for a Leigh try and the Widnes commentator starts screaming forward pass!!

Sorry I'm a bit of a technical numpty. But if someone can tell me how to do it I'll have a go.

I went, but our kid was listening on Radio Merseyside, with Ray French commentating. Apparently a couple of minutes from the end he was going 'Collier, Andy Collier, Collier's has scored', and our kid went nuts, only to find out the daft twonk meant Andy Currier, and Widnes were in front again with a minute to go. And we all know what happened next... but our kid didn't believe the commentary until we got home.

I knew it was something like that.
