A big well done to Tony Harrison and the Times and Star for their coverage of Town this week with a 4 page pull-out. Thank you.
Credit where it's due

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 read a piece by Tony Harrison in the paper. The pull-out could have been by Fuller.

Just seen the pull out. Well done T & S, nice one 
Mind you, I never realized it was WIGTON we played at Wembley in 58. 
How did we fair in the N&S this week, did todays game get much coverage ?
