i've been trying to remember the year but think it was early 90s that we played Oldham in one of the cups. Absolutely baltic, and one of my mates girlfriends had to leave with hypothermia

coldest i've ever been was HKR away in January on a Wednesday night, and i went over in my shirt (wasnt the brightest idea i've ever had), and there was a slightly cold wind coming in off the estuary, ,well before the trees had established themselves in the old away end

Pat Richards appearing from the fog for a try down the Wigan end will never be forgotten. It was like he'd stepped out of the doors on stars in their eyes.

Fantastic evening, that.
Ridiculous but a bloody great memory! When I tell my kids about that night, they'll simply not believe that A) it was played or B) we didn't just leave & go home!

I remember handing my cash over at the turnstile just thinking 'what am I doing' but thought maybe they knew something we didn't and it would magically clear up. Just a surreal night but as you say, it's one to look back on and laugh.
