HAVING grown up in a family of ‘The Comics’ supporters, I am delighted to hear that Leigh have won their way into Super League.
I wonder how many of your readers remember that Leigh got to their first Wembley Challenge Cup final by defeating Huddersfield in 1971.
I left Tyldesley for Australia two days before that game, and having followed them in vain for the previous 20 years I missed out on seeing them win the cup.
I still have the programme from the semi-final.
