'92 I think it was, at Burnden Park. One of the great Wigan performances of recent years IMO. Fairly sure Nobby was Bradford's hooker that day too?

Another favourite of mine, think it was our first meeting at JJB:

Over 17,000 on a Wednesday night, Bradford brought thousands too. Both teams packed with world class players, how times change

Wow! What a night that was.


To be fair, not a great game for us up to that point....But that one last play changed everything! And when Rads crashed over, the East Stand faithful went absolutely potty.....Only to quickly go quiet again, when we all realised that we were still 1-point behind.
The tension when Faz lined-up the conversion out wide was almost unbearable. And yes, i was one of the many that couldnt bear to watch.
As it sailed over, sending us back to the top of the table, the place erupted like i've never heard before...Or since.
People were hugging strangers, dancing in the aisles, and generally going crazy!



What a moment, and what a memory!
One never to be forgotten.

2006 away for comedy value aswell.

I'll also never forget Matthew Elliot turn round to everyone in the West stand as he was walkin down only to give everyone the v sign, sour grapes at it's best

Was that the fog?



Couldnt see a thing then randomly heard on the tannoy 'try scorer for wigan warriors number 13 sean o'loughlin'

Agreed - plus the Challenge Cup match in 1985...Hanley outplayed Kenny, a great try scored by Gilly, but the Wigan fans rushing onto the pitch from behind the in-goal area prevented him from touching down between the sticks (Odsal was being redeveloped (honestly!) and we sat on chairs on the perimeter of the pitch with our feet on the advertising hoardings at the very spot where Gilly collected the ball to score) - happy days!

Cant remember the year but it was at the JJB. We were struggling for field position and Bradfords big pack had us contained in our own half with the scores tied. It looked like we would run out of steam and Bradford would go on to win until Adrian Lam kicked the ball into the corner early in the tackle count and Brett Dallas chased it,overtook Leon Pryce who had a good 10/15 metres on him,picked the ball up and dove over the line to put us ahead. We went on to win the game i think it may of been 2002. It was the year Mattty Johns was at halfback. Best bit was seeing Pryce's face go from arrogant to shame.

Quote ="RB"Was 2001. www.sportinglife.com/rugbyleague ... tlead.html '" That was the game. Cracking match with nothing in it as most Bulls/Wigan games were in those days. It was just individual brilliance that won it us in the end and the speed that Dallas showed to gain 10/15M on Pryce and overtake him was breathtaking.

That was a brilliant match, nearly wasn't allowed to go cos I had GCSE exam the next morning

I remember millward saying at the end he sent a player on cant remember who it was but he came of with blood down his front and millward said " i couldn't see wether the player had been in a brawl or been for a hot dog"

Beating Bradford at C. P. 14-0 in the rain, we had a load of players missing including Farrell , Mark smith played lows off the park that day .

Play offs comeback - enough said.

Renouf making the break, Radders scoring, Farrell converting. Awesome scenes.

I think it may off been the bulls or maybe Leeds but at Central Park when it was a horrible night and the score line wasnt very big, Gary Connolly scored late on under the sticks by stealing the ball one on one?

10 -10 on a rainy wednesday night at Central Park is a memory that always sticks out for me.

The play off semi final game at Central Park in 1996 One of the most open games of free flowing rugby you'll ever see.

Wigan won 42 - 36 with Shaun Edwards at his magical best scoring four tries.

It was then that you could also see that Bradford were building a very good team.

Those are my favourite games also. The play off game will never be done again and the Renouf try was superb and everyone was beeping their horns all around town. The Cowie drop goal was brilliant.

Was that the game where Robbie Paul through a punch at Shaun Edwards missed and hit an unexpecting Gary Connolly .

Gary Conolly was at his best in that game.

I still remember Stevo "Renoufs run, Radlinskis try, Bradford ran out of numbers, but can he kick the goal!!"

Never get tired of watching that.

Was that the game when Connolly robbed the ball from McAvoy I think it was and strolled in under the sticks? I remember that very well.

Nobby was hooker that day also captain i think

Biggest cheer of the game was when Gill scored for them

I remember going mental when rads got that try.

2007 game just best comeback i will ever see

Thought it was earlier than that, oh well i was still only young

2001 Grand Final was a beauty!!!

No honestly, the 96 play off game was great. even though you lot won, it was a great night, and like someone else posted, it was probably that game that signalled the start of something special at bradford.

Also that season we beat Saints and Wigan at home in consecutive weeks. I remember after the first one a saints fan moaning that by beating them, all we were doing was handing the title to wigan. i told him that we would do the same to you, and for the first time in what seemed like years, we did....happy days.
