is that the one against oldham schools which a certain Kevin Sinfield played in?

If it was that game Danny Maun scored and went round Sinfield. Put it on dvd for  Mauny who had the original video. It had the presentations on after the match in Moor clubhouse  . Brilliant nostalgia.

And a first chance to visit Wembley - that would be nice, wouldn't it?

Bite bite...........It would be lovely BSJ.  And wouldn't it be great if we went on to win it and hence the first winners of three different trophys.  (Ok, OK, so what if there were only three winners of the Transpennine trophy....makes it special, doesn't it?).

Don't think so. It would make Sinfield 43 years old if he was 11 in 1983. (Can't remember the exact year, but it was round about that time I was 'friendly' - for a very brief time - with a young teaching assistant at the school.)

Perhaps you're thinking of Gary Connolly for St Helens schools?

Batley and Dewsbury schools played 3 times at Wembley against Widnes, Oldham and St Helens in 1983,92 and 1997 in which 3 ex Bulldogs played in with John Gallagher, Luke Stenchion and Patch Walker

I was seventeen at the time (as was the young lady).

I didn't meet my present wife until the following year.

So you fulfilled one young lady's dreams whilst crushing those of another?

Well, she still lets me come and watch Batley.

Whether that constitutes a "letting off" or not, I'll leave others to determine.

Forgive me if I maintain a dignified silence over that comment, BSJ.

The new 1895 trophy and all the competing sides

That's as close as Dewsbury will get to it..

Look good our cabinet that, might have to shove a few others out the way to make room though.
