PS

I was there!

Went straight from school and got to ground at 4.15 (walked it from Hindley)!
Got on the ground behind the sticks Kop End and at 6.30pm I couldn't see a thing it was that Packed!

Walked home and got in at about 11.30pm and didnt get to sleep till around 3 or 4 in the morning as all I could still hear was the noise from the crowd ringing in my ears!

UNREAL ! :shock:

Some Salford fan said to me and I quote "You are by far and away the most Handsome & Knowledgeable Rugby League Fan in England!"

I thanked him and went on my Merry way!

RIVERCAVE DWELLER OF THE YEAR 2015!

"The club used you last night and didn't tell the truth."

Officially one of the 119 Mugs used by the club

Without doubt my greatest sporting memory. I was right up at the top of the corner/kop end where the steps were biggest and a runt like me could see!

I was there - a truly unforgettable experience and an atmosphere that will probably never ever be recreated at a Rugby League game again. The true marker of what the game meant was the number of non Wigan fans who helped swell the crowd - it gave the whole of the British game a lift after the many hammerings suffered by the national team.

Wasn't there and it's the only trophy I've not seen us win whilst in attendance. I'd of only been 2 years old, then when we played Penrith at Anfield I had a ticket but wasn't allowed to go as I'd been throwing up all week (probably in excitment for the game!).

I was there with my dad.

We went into the snooker club after the game to let the traffic get away. It was still busy at 11 p.m.

I was there,
my mate went to the bar just before kick-off, never saw him again until we met up in the Fox & Goose after the match! He couldn't get back to us on the terraces so he drank the beer and finally got to where he could see the match :lol:

No known famous fans. Town apparently goes into hibernation when rugby league season ends.
