| The one where Halifax Reserves were playing Saints as a curtain raiser and there were 1000+ Wiganers there well early all cheering 'Hali-Hali-Hali-Hali-Halifax'. They all came over and applauded us at the end. Funny as.
I'll also never forget being one of the very first people in the queue at the turnstyles one Boxing Day and when a turnstyle opened we thought they were going to let us in. Instead a steward came out and changed the price from £10 to £11!?!

He's injured!
The comeback game in 2003 is still my favourite KR memory. I was absolutely buzzing leaving the ground that night. Robi, Robi, Robi, Robi, Robinsonn!!! OOOHHHHH....

| Challenge cup quarter final 1984, mud heap of a pitch, Wigan (wearing Saints away strip) losing 7-4, John Pendlebury gets on the end of a passing move and crosses out wide, the place erupted and we went on to win easily, fantastic day and even better night out in Wigan after !!!!!!!

That one was a defining moment - paved the way to 1st Wembley in 14 years, but my fave was 82 just up from the 2nd division and we won a Challenge Cup tie at Knowsley Road on national tv - which had the town talking about us for the 1st time in years. We lost narrowly to cup kings Widnes in the next round in front of a massive crowd signalling we were back in the big time.

True.
but back in the day Fielden was capable of decking the best. I would love to see the beast unleashed one last time.

| For me possibly it would be the game where we were 16-0 down after about ten minutes but then ten minutes later were 20-16 in the lead. Never has "you're not singing any more" been sung as loudly at KR. Boring second half but the first half was probably the best I've ever seen.
Or the game where we had a man sent off (Henry Paul I think) and then Tuigamala put in an inspirational show to lead us to victory, what a fantastic powerhouse performance that was. Schofield should watch a video of that game if he thinks Inga was a failure as a league player, no one was more powerful than Tuigamala on his day. In that game he seemed at times to be taking on almost the entire Saints team on his own (and winning!). Unbelievable stuff.
But the all time favourite moment for me has to be the mass brawl and ensuing confrontation between Faz and Sculthorpe.
These games are so special: one thing we and our scouse friends can agree on is that there is nothing better in RL than Wigan/Saints derbies.

| Enjoy it while you can, we took the pi55about Central Park but jeez do I miss it now.
KR is one of the last few real RL grounds, fingers crossed that at least with standing behind the goals at the new site you will not have to put up with the all seater e that we have to at away derby games.

Can;t see that TBH, from what i am hearing, one end of the ground will be season ticket only, the other will be a mixture of season tickets and pay on the day.
Big cup games will mean an allocation of seats and standing for the visits of wire and yourselves, if drawn in the cup I can see you both being allocated an entire end of standing.

I think you will just have an away end then. You won't be filling it every week.

| Anyone remember 65-12 in 1997?
Wigan winning 51-0 at one stage and Karle Hammond lost his rag with us when they were waiting under the sticks for Farrell to convert a try.....brilliant!

Was just going to post the memory that always sticks in my mind is Simon Haughton tearing them to pieces and running a couple of beauties in right infront of that away end with the Wigan fans going nuts.
That was that game wasn't it?
A stunning preformence in the blue version of that awful Warrior kit.

| Boxing day 1986 which was, I think, the first time Wigan wore the Canterbury Style away kit (Pemps - must speak to you about that, actually... )
Basically, both sides were wearing all white with Vs, and late on in the game with all the players caked in mud, you could hardly tell which players were playing for which team, never mind who was who.
Henderson Gill jumped about 6 foot in the air to dive over for his try, then stood like a statue afterwards, eventually and very slowly, pointing his finger in the air, for his celebration. What a man he is. David Stephenson scored a pearler in the first half as well.

Wasn't 1986!
It was the 88/89 season IIRC

That one takes some beating. How to silence a crowd of Stains in 15 minutes
All the lads were in Walkabout after the game, I think Kev Brown must have only been about 16

| Think it was 84 challenge cup, it absolutely peed down all the match and about 10 mins to go it was still touch and go then Mark Cannon scored in the mud to secure a great win. Seem to remember the crowd was about 20,000 and half of them, I`m sure where in the Stains club at the final whistle. Had a programme but it was just a soggy mess when I got home, soaked through but happy!
