Quote ="marillion man"I probably copped one off big Gary too, i usually did in the scrums ! I played a few times with Scott in the Fax colts, i always thought he was a great player too, he played in some fantastic Park Amateurs teams. I played against Rob when he was down at Tod & at Sowerby Spartans, they were always tough games against Sowerby.
I just thought, Jimmy Bailey would have to be in at loose forward in front of Foxy. I first played with Jimmy at Fax when he came in as a 16 year old playing colts u19's, i remember scoring off a short pass from him after he made a brilliant break at the old Central park Wigan in front of about 1500 speccies. He could play many positions could Jimmy & unlike half the town i really admired his rugby talents, he couldn't half make a gap for you. I was chuffed he got a 1st team run one game for Fax & should have had more really. Pain in the backside to play against though if you didn't put him on his backside. Great bloke too & still loves his rugby.'"
Yes jimmy would have been in my pack had I played more games alongside him, top fella. Always had some banter with Jimmy during the game and several beers after
