Gary Nolan (rugby league)

Gary Nolan (born (1966-05-31) 31 May 1966 (age 55)) is an English former rugby league footballer for Hull F.C. Nolan was a substitute, and scored a try in Hull FC's 14-4 victory over Widnes in the Premiership Final during the 1990-91 season at Old Trafford, Manchester on 12 May 1991.^[1] He had previously scored the winning try in the semi-final against Leeds, leapt into the air to collect a bomb from Greg Mackey and taking the ball out of the hands of Leeds "star" All-Black full-back John Gallagher.

Nolan had been an amateur with Hull Dockers just six weeks previously. He made his mark in the Old Trafford game after entering as a 48th-minute substitute. He claimed the clinching try in the 14-4 win with just 10 minutes remaining when he stretched out an arm through a tangle of bodies. It was only his fourth first-team appearance and he enjoyed only a short career. As of 2007, he is the manager of a food processing plant in Hull. He now works for ABP in Hull and can be seen stood around most of the time or hanging around the managers office ^[2]
