Did he stand on Dean Bell's 'privates' on boxing day?
Kind of remember something happening, or was it other way round.
Skerret hit him with a elbow, skerret sent off... Guess who took the next drive in after the tap.... Jarrod McCracken, straight into Cowie & Platt..
Loved that team, Hunte, Griffiths, Ropati, Cooper, Ward...

You young un's don't know ya born, we had to put up with that team!!

Wasn't a bad side that year ... we finished equal on points with Wigan in 92-3. The few years following were pretty awful though.

So, this was THE game that started the ding dong bell chants? No wonder I was doubting my memory its the only Saints-wigan game of that year I havnt got :cry:

it was Steve Hampson who got the special "private" treatment (and it was the day after boxing day :wink:). also in that game, a fight broke out after a kick down field - McCracken ran the ball back 60m straight to where the fight was, dropped the ball and got stuck in.

golden days....we didnt win anything, but you could always guarantee a derby day fight.

We won the Premiership that season and the Charity Shield.

Wasn't this the last ever Lancashire cup final? Maybe wrong but that's what I always thought. I remember Chris Joynt kicking through but wasn't quite quick enough to get to the ball. I think that was the closest we came to scoring. Was a great crowd and great atmosphere too. Wiganers even stayed until the end, well most of 'em anyway :shock:
