Orrell RUFC defeat Harlequins and Gloucester in 1990/91

I remember the 'Quins match,it was really quite tense.No one got much change from the Orrell pack in those days and they really were one of the best teams in England.

My era. Played against many of these players as they came back from injuries playing for their second and third teams. You could do that back then, which made amateur rugby such a great game

@The Glum Rant: My era too! You played against Orrell and Harlequins? Or against Gloucester?

[@theglumrant9477]

Philip Marsden only in 2nds and 3rds, etc...played against Nick Jeavons once. Everyone used to say he was a tart...but you try tackling the bastard. These were the days when you could “join” the Saints as a playing member and see if you could make it. I didn’t

Happy days, before the club was ruined by that bastard Whelan.
