Was this during his testimonial in the 1980s?

The testimonial was for John Bevan & not his father Brian.

In a 70's testimonial (don't know who's)

JB's testimonial was against Saints, straight after the end of the 82/3 season, where a Saints player scored first, this being the first four point try in the country ( I think)

Yes it was a testimonial .

I was at the game and remember it as for John Parry Gordon in1981.

Bev came on about 5 mins from the end on the left wing with the crowd willing him to score.
The Wires got him away but Wilderspool Villan Mick Adams Rolled him over.

Into the last minute and they got the ball out left again to Bev who evaded half a dozen tackles to touch down in the left hand corner at the Fletcher Street End.
