Strictly speaking it was a league match because the Premiership started in mini-league formats with us paired with Hull, Fev and York i think. Played each other home and away.


Didnt Stewart come from Newcastle?

Thats right it was an extended version of the Premiership play offs which became the Northern Rail etc.

The league campaign finished in late July early August if memory serves.

Home League games were played at Boothferry several years in a row in the '50s. Discontinued due to the Football League adopting new regulations.

To save me digging out the DVD, who did win MOM vs Widnes in the NL GF?
