Mirfield stags , fartown player

[iangidds]

Hi ,

Hoping someone out there can help , I played for Mirfield 25 years ago and we had a player coach who was in his forties then, he was a very good fella nicknamed Hughy .

Think he played pro for Fartown before that, anyone have a full name for him?

Gordon McHugh, perhaps? Playing here, as a second row, in the infamous Battle of Fartown.

Hughie Armitage? Both he and his brother Phill played there.

No problem, I played with his brother Phill in the late 70's when I captained the side at 17.
