I was 12 when I heard Ken Gee scoring a try at Wembley on the radio. I have followed Wigan for sixty odd years and still remember that day. Wigan won 10 nil.

I would guess 1950. Look at the number of players. I think it is the championship team plus the 1950 Wigan tourists.

Season 1949-50 Wigan defeated Huddersfield 20pts to 2 at Maine Road to become league champions.
