REMEMBER WHEN
Great Harwood Town 0 Irlam Town 1
February 28th 1992
On Saturday 28th February 1992 the Robins took on St. Helens at the Showground and won 1-0 thanks to a goal by that Great Harwood legend Paul Baker.
At the time, Harwood were the undisputed kings of non-league football in the area. The previous season saw us win the NWCL 2nd Division and reach the 6th Round of the FA Vase before losing to Littlehampton Town. Season 91/92 saw us continue in the same vein, top of the 1st Division and an ATS semi-final against Blackpool Rovers coming up during the week.
The team that faced St. Helens was:
John Little, Neil Rowbotham, Paul Rigby, Paul Whalley, Matin Eatough, Neil Baron, David Sharples, Mark Heyes, Lee Rogerson, Peter Smith, Paul Baker.
