Who was at widnes the day troy scored a wonder try to keep us in the old division one.in fact if i remember we finished about 4 places above relegation that season.

woy season was that??

oh the good old dayz

No relegation that season.

remember that 1 myself - a jolly good game stuffing the chemics in a game we should of had no chance!

What were the teams that day?

hanger, Gunning Collier? anymore?

Is that the one were he fell on his backside as he kicked a goal? If so I was there.

Week before they went to wembley i think.
Simon Booth, Duncan Platt, Rowley, Baldwin, Martin, Pendlebury, Hansen.

Street?!

Your right finished out of relegation places but relegation was suspended that season. In fact it was Simms first season he took over in the Nov of that season and won his first game against St Helens. That season plenty people walked on easter monday to save the ground and we walloped Salford that afternoon. I think it was the 1992/93 season or Maybe 1991/92??

That historic game at Widnes saw me leap the terrace at the old Naughton Park and run straight into the arms of Lee Hansen at the full time hooter. Knee deep in mud, fantastic day!

1992-93 season was that and the Widnes game was played on Jason Donohue's 21st birthday - it was an amazing last ten minutes in that game.

We nearly went at HT it was terrible glad we didn't it was a great second half.

I have got a signed rugby ball from that season,from the Leigh vWigan game.It was actually the match ball and is signed by some legends of the game,im donating it to the sports persons dinner at leigh east to be auctioned off in aid of the barla tour lads from the easts.I will accept pre dinner bids and still donate the money.

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!!

would be a good watch - can u not put clips on here?

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.
