As some of us weren't even a twinkle in the eye in 1971, this thread will remain a strictly Wembley-free zone! Even though the National League Cup is a pretty young competition (first one in 2002 after scrapping the Trans Pennine Cup), I'd say we've got quite a few memories from it.

Leroy Rivett scoring a full lengther in the 2003 final against Salford within the first few minutes. Leigh end went mental and for a while I think we were daft enough to think we had a chance of winning it!

Tommy Martyn scoring with the last play of the game to win the semi final at Whitehaven in 2004. Absolute bedlam.

Tommy Martyn kicking a drop goal from the left hand touchline in the 2004 final against Hull KR despite being about three inches from landing on his backside. We didn't half hammer them that day.

Our first try against Hull KR in the 2006 final - put us right back in to contention after being well behind early on and eventually paid off. What a day



Any additions?

In 2006 when HKR scored in the final 4 mins and it went to the screen, not one Leyther could watch and it went mental when no try came up.

I still remember a very wet day at CP v Widnes `81.................It was n`t Wembley , although I was there has an 8 yr old......Happy days.

Anyway regards the final in it`s many formats;

20001 v Keighley at their place 0-35 ish Awesome

2004 v KR at Spotland when some of their fans made total tools of themselves.......

On tackle 7 I seem to remember!

It was but who was the video ref ? Looked like a try to me but naturally the video ref called it right just like that Fev try on Thursday.

VR in 2006 was Bob Connolly

Aizue running straight at Tommy Martyn only to be Cumberland thrown on his .

Tommys drop goal was something you won't see done again proper skill.

Dewsbury under 5 inch of water!! Never should of been played!

You're right, it was tackle 7 I remember playing it back when I got home and my fiancée ringing in to radio manchester complaining that it could have cost us the game. Happy days to be repeated again, I hope.

Last one I went to was the 2003 Defeat to Salford at Spotland , I remember it well as I rode there on a push bike as part of a LISA sponsorship



At both the HKR ones I was away on my hols at the time , hope I'm not the jinx

So you've missed both of our victories? Bloody hope you're not going to the final!

Afraid so Matt
