After reading two articles in the T&S today I am feeling a bit Gutted and very confused after finding out that Town actually lost the Championship final in 1951.
...When I was a kid I used to listen to my mam and Dad telling me tales of the fantastic day they had at Maine Rd watching Town defeat Warrington to win the championship, and how they were all on the pitch celebrating at the final whistle...It seems like they must have had a couple of pale Ales too many (or they were fibbing), because apparently we lost. I feel cheated.

One was in the piece about Vince McKeating where it said that we lost the Championship Final to Warrington!!!!!!!!
I don't the other one.
I remember when .............................
"It is impossible not to feel a twinge of sympathy for Workington Town, the fall guys this season for the Super League's determination to retain it's European dimesion, in the shape of Paris. While the French have had every assistance to survive, the importance of having a flagship in a heartland area like West Cumbria has been conveniently forgotten." - Dave hadfield - Independent 25th Augsut 1996.

I`m absolutely stunned to see the T&S get its facts wrong when taking about us.....

That should have read T&S and N&S. One was an obituary for Vince McKeating and the other an article in the N&S about Vince's career.Which 2 articles?
Only joking Helen, we all make mistakes.
