Northern Rugby Football League Final 1949 Photo Ref: PC 2010.2606
The photo caption reads "29,000 Record Crowd. Leigh v Wigan Replayed 2ng Leg RL (Rugby League) Cup February 26th 1949" The crowd is a real mix of local people, certainly not exclusively all men. Notice the number of men wearing cloth caps or hats. There seems little evidence of crowd control!
