I meant to post this when it happened but i forgot.....I was having a drink in wilkies a few weeks ago... think it was a friday night game and Leeds v cas were on sky... there was this big blonde haired guy sat near us... he was talking about all things warrington all night... all subjects came up... wembley, smith, moran, morley, wingers, how the game has changed... anyway at the end of the night we were all pretty drunk when his mrs piped up 'come on tex.. time to go'.

It was only Tex Evans...... high profile celebrity and a massive wire to boot.

Never heard of him

Honestly dont know who he is but have heard his name more than a few times. A bit before my time

Any pictures of him anywhere?

Massive

From memory i think Tex Evans played amatuer RL at Crosfields then moved to Swinton and then onto Salford, he was a big powerful winger with blonde hair.

i know tex, hes an orford lad, used to live at the back of my mum in chiltern rd, used to go in poplars pub nearly evrynight, top bloke was tex., used to knock about with his younger brother eddie.

i cant find any of him...well i can find 1... bottom row.. third from the right.

proper A list

I had my photo taken with England cricketer Ryan Sidebottom on Wembley Way last Saturday!

Does this count?.........Not in the same high profile celebrity as Tex I know

Tex was a handful of a winger, gave good service to Swinton and Salford. Should have been a Wire.

wasn't his nickname, Sexy Tex Evans

Steve Molloy & Micky higham's wife were on our train to that London on Friday (not together). That must be worth a shout

Remember watching Dessie smash Tex on the wing in a Lancashire Cup game on evening. Tex was changing his shorts when the ball went to him he pulled up the short and set off for the line after about 10yds the torpedo struck him far and square in the chest

2 years ago i played with Toa Kohe Love at Rylands in there pre season training haha

Chris Rudd used to live about three doors down from me when he was playing for us. Really good bloke. Does that count?

some good celebrity shouts here so far...

I sat next to Rauhihi in the hairdressers once. Des that count?

I once saw Kerry Katona at KFC on Winwick Road. Do I win £5 ?

If it the same Tex Evans I'm thinking of (how many are there?) then I think I played with and against his son on more than a few occasions.

only if he offloaded.


There is no prize money... but if there was, you wouldn't have got any for that spot.

john bevan used to teach p.e. at my school.

Spoke with Andy Gregory at Warwick services last saturday before the match. Quite a few were having their photos taken with him.

i bet robbierotten has some good celebrity stories.

I saw Paul Sculthorpe in a pub near the M.E.N. Arena...
