Just tidying a cupboard which is my dumping ground lol. Found my stash of my newspaper reports from 1999-2001, some good memories.

Remember the York Wasps away game where we had our first away victory for 2 years, I covered the Yorkshire post that day.

A photo of me with alex murphy which i think was in the donny star, when i was getting a signed copy of his book.

The report from the house of rain, instead of house of pain, when the posts came down at half time at Belle Vue in a freak storm.

Some great memories here.

what we would do now for a money man to bring us back some good times

i have sweet memories of dave sampson i remember him saying the modern game did,nt need hookers so he sold gibbie to fev.then he said parky was to old,and got graham idle in to replace him oh yes sweet memories indeed.what ever happened to dave

Quite rightly, with decisions like that, he drifted out of the game.

That was also against York IIRC.
I was there ....what a laugh.
An announcement went out for anyone with a hacksaw in their car boot.......'any burglars present?'
The 45 degree sleety rain....what a laugh
Happy days.

... and of course someone did.

Did they also ask if somebody had any allen keys on them!! Great stuff!

Also a one of the best memories always for me was when we came back from the dead at Rochdale and Anton Garcia went over in the corner with about a minute left to win the game.There wernt many of us behind the sticks but everyone went mental!! The same game where Mansson was sent off after about 5 minutes.

That was a fantastic day out and Jamie Fielden was virtually in tears.

Thats the one mate.It was only a league game but the scenes were as if we'd won the cup final!

Was that as good as the Leigh game at Belle Vue with the Johnny Woodcock last minute winning try?

I would go for the Rochdale one over the Leigh game to be honest.

Though the Batley Promotion game would take some beating
