| Ford was definitely post Summer 1980.
On the "who'd walk into the current side" debate
Ken Kelly
Hesford (for kicking)
and definitely Bevan.
Eccles
I don't remember too much about Tommy Martin

Top player. My favourite backrower, a proper footballer, great hands. I don't think eventually we could afford his pay demand's and Leigh had money to burn.
He'd walk into our team now. I was at Wembley in 75 but at an age not to remember that much...so my first memory was him giving the Aussie tourist an exhibition of toughness and ball skill..my best memory was probably his last game or not far his last, winning the JPS.

| Tommy Martyn was a class act.
Our loss was Leigh’s gain when he left at the end of the 1981 season.
Still can’t believe he left us.
So the pic must have been early 1981.

Was this during his testimonial in the 1980s?

The testimonial was for John Bevan & not his father Brian.

| In a 70's testimonial (don't know who's)
JB's testimonial was against Saints, straight after the end of the 82/3 season, where a Saints player scored first, this being the first four point try in the country ( I think)

Yes it was a testimonial .
I was at the game and remember it as for John Parry Gordon in1981.
Bev came on about 5 mins from the end on the left wing with the crowd willing him to score.
The Wires got him away but Wilderspool Villan Mick Adams Rolled him over.
Into the last minute and they got the ball out left again to Bev who evaded half a dozen tackles to touch down in the left hand corner at the Fletcher Street End.

Did Brian Bevan play in more than one testimonial, as I'm fairly sure he started one game on the right wing. Unless it was the same game and he came back on, but on the other wing?
I jumped over the wall while the game was in progress and he kindly signed an autograph for me. The things you did and could get away with when you were (considerably) younger.
