I was there in 1998 to watch the Mighty Eagles beat Wigan against all odds. I barely slept the previous night, making flags, hats and t-shirts ready for the big day. I was so excited I forgot the flags! It mattered not though, as the Eagles hadn't forgot what they were going for, a victory and to my amazement, that's just what we got.
I will never forget that day and I'll never stop watching my team Sheffield Eagles
