Help With Old Results

[HelmetHead]

Can anybody help point me in the direction of a page for past results for the club as I need to settle a discussion over a game from the 90's?

Thanks KV - how accurate are the results?

The reason that I ask is that it has us playing in Challenge Cup in November and December 1995 being beaten by Wiggin in the QF but then the Challenge Cup appears again in February and March where we went out to Stains in the semi.

I am convinced that the Wiggin game was in the Regal Trophy and was the one where Christian Tyrer missed the DG right at the end of normal time.

Anybody clear this up?

Thanks Deb - you have just won me a bet against 3 friends who all said it was the CC and not the Regal Trophy.

I remember how cold it was and also a Wigan player got sin binned in a case of mistaken identity. I think it was Inga Tuigamaila (sp).

Winny Ingram's debut.

Yeah, Inga got sin-binned by Russel Smith ( i think ) and it was Jason Robinson who committed the foul.

Inga came back on after 10 minutes rest and won the game for them..........

Didn't Chrystian Tyrer Hit the post wih a drop goal attempt

[Fatty Heathcliff]

Remember it well, was a saturday TV game & nearly missed works Christmas do because of extra time. Didn`t we get penalised in possesion under our own posts for Wigan to equalise with a penalty when we just had to run down the clock?

I remember the game very well. I remember saying to mates, who thought Simon Haughton (where did he go?) would rip us apart, that he wouldn't because "one of The Hulmes would smash him early doors and he wont want to know" David didn't play, but Paul smashed him after about 5 minutes and he disappeared.

That was, IIRC, Inga's debut wasn't it? It was also the game when someone threw an egg and it smashed on Andy Farrell's head.

Think Paul Hulme scored straight off a drop-out to open the scoring, couldn't tell you who scored our others, possibly Tony Thorniley?? and I know Darren Wright scored straight off a scrum in extra-time. Tyrer hit the post with a DG attempt in normal time.

In fact, didn't Mike Peachey/Pechey score off a short ball from someone and just crashed over. I'm sure I have the game on VHS somewhere.

Was it the year before when we ripped Bradford apart in the same competition, well in fact, it was Moose who ripped them apart and at one point we were down to 10 men and Dave Ruane kicked Newlove in the face??
