Just wondering with Foxy being 80 and having had a very long career and JT being 60 and coming up through the ranks did they ever play together?

No.
Johnny might have played against Neil when at Bradford in his last year but certainly not at Wakefield.
I guess JT might have been there as a junior when Neil was there. But unlikely.

Just checked.
Wakefield played Bradford in JTs debut season when Neil played but JT wasn't selected for that game.

JT made his debut at Headingley on Boxing Day 78.
John Holmes, David Ward and Les Dyl era at Headingley.
He was sub and came on to play second row along side the great Trevor Skerret. With Topliss leading the team of course.

That’s a shame as there would have been a certain poetry to it.
