We are designing a Wire to Wolves timeline, tracking the club and the town's fortunes from the inception of the club by seven blokes in a church in Bewsey Street in 1878 right through to the Super League club we know today.
What we're trying to do with this exhibition is to celebrate the legends of the past and to educate Warrington's new residents on the passion and intensity of the sport but also to Warrington itself. Thousands of Warringtonians weren't born here and have no affiliation with the place so hopefully this will help to address that. But this really is all our story and the exhibition will hopefully run for many years so we want to get as many fans as possible to write in with their memories of watching great players. Be it the speed and wit of Brian Bevan, the hard head of Des Drummond or the tenacity and spirit of Mike Gregory, reading an anecdote is more engrossing than facts and scorelines.
Hopefully we will inspire future generations, hopefully I have inspired some of you to get in touch and email in.

QuoteNtW="NtW"The Founding Fathers met in 1876, so you need to add a couple of years to the start of your timeline
Great idea though, and pleased that Neil D and the gang are paging forward on these heritage points (just wish the formation date stuff on Wire2Wolves would get updated to remove the incorrect
1879 references).'"
I understand that the wire2wolves website is due a major overhaul, hence it's not getting updated much at the moment.
If no one has any specific memories of the club, so far none have come forward (although if we were after quotes from an ex England football manager we'd really be in business) maybe someone might remember any Warrington RLFC crowd chants that go back past Dessie Give Us A Wave? If you do, please could you send them to us? Obviously what the Pope said when Wigan went to see him in Rome or other such anglo saxon won't be suitable.
Thank you for your feedback and all the joyous memories of a documentary featuring Graham Taylor.
Gary, apologies the email should be working on the blog now but just in case please email wire@fuzzyduck.eu
