Floodlit Rugby League

on BBC Two England

Widnes v Swinton
The 1979 BBC2 Floodlit Rugby League Trophy competition begins with a first-round match between Challenge Cup and Floodlit Trophy holders, Widnes and second division Swinton.
On paper Widnes should have a relatively easy passage into the next round, but upsets often happen in cup ties.
Swinton have strengthened their side considerably by signing DAVID WATKINS. Welsh international and ex-Salford star, and expect to put up a fight against Widnes's strong opposition.
Highlights of the match played earlier this evening at Naughton Park. Introduced by RICHARD DI CKENFIELD
