Yes indeed. Was looking at his stats last night , 168 tries I think . Fantastic stuff . First season I remember as a young un was the season Johnny Jones scored 31 tries in 31 games . He was my first town hero , another classy centre. Great memories and many great players at that time when a golden era was drawing to a close.

I (painfully) recall him getting a four-timer up at your gaff against us!

I can't remember the actual score, but you gave us a right stuffing that afternoon!

Daily, my intense dislike of the Pinks, Rugby Yawnion, Manchester United, and far-right politics, grows ever larger, and will continue to do so forever more!

Question! What's the connection between Rugby League and Rugby Yawnion? Answer! There isn't one!

My girl-friend said to me "If you had to choose between me and Swinton who would it be?" I replied "You know the answer to that one without even asking!"

Well deserved for a player who was at town for over a decade, though before my time so I can only sort of remember seeing him as a kid.

The Wright/Risman centre partnership was a great mainstay of the Town team in the 70's and they were a perfect combination. John Risman was tough as teak and tackled as hard as anyone who's ever played the game, while Ian Wright was very quick and was silky smooth with a natural flair for scoring tries. Congratulations to Ian on his induction into the Hall of Fame.

A good night was had by all and "Mr Quiet Man" Ian Wright actually made a good passionate speech. Some of his old team-mates were there Les & Peter Gorley, Bill Pattinson, Alan Banks, David Collister, Iain McCorquodale plus Sol Roper and Harry Archer. There was a taped message from Ray Wilkins and a DVD interview with Paul Charlton. Another good night's crack.

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.
