If this is true utterly disgraceful

Not defending it but stuff like this happens in every game. What next? Sent off for calling someone a prick because you hurt their feelings.

There's a line and if found guilty he crossed it, and no you can't defend what he allegedly said.

a player sent off in a game involving Leigh... That's unusual....

Sounds like somethings been said and someones taken it all the wrong way...

Do we know who the receiver of the abuse was?

Yep. Massive surprise.

Love your faux outrage.

Nothing faux about my comment

Charlie knows

.

Yes. It was Jamie Acton.

Zak Hardaker got a 4 match ban for similar comments at a Wire v Leeds game.

Oh and Leigh did not get into trouble for the cost of the Ambulance which took Sam Barlow to Hospital for a brain scan when he" pretended "to be hurt following our home game against Fax. They also did not get charged for wasting hospital staff time.

Did he march off the field like a diva afterwards swinging his handbag?

Even got an Oscar nomination. I see he's been touting himself as a "soon to be Rhinos player". Nothing changes !!

Sammy B or Acton?

Barlow.

Yeh he was so good they kept him in hospital overnight and he missed the next Leigh game.

Leeds are trying to buy out his contract for next season but their first offer of £200k has been rejected.

Massive lolz!!!

On topic-very surprised to read that Pat's is alleged to have done this. Always struck me as a decent bloke.
Off thread £200k contract buy out-Leigh must have some major money ploughed into the 'Nearly Invincibles' side now. Amazing turn around in such a short space of time!

Haha. He's 27 next season and still hasn't played in SL. Got to admire his belief against the odds.

Reminds me of myself - I keep on saying to the wife, if I turn up early with my shirt on, Karl might one day see me on the terraces and think, Big Rob over there might be able to do a job for us this week... I'm 40 next year and slowly coming to the conclusion that I won't be playing at Championship level.

Respect for Sam, he's not giving up the dream...

Gone over all the posts on this topic and still can't find out how it got turned into a Sam Barlow argument.
A bit fed up with this "he called me a name" business. Get over it.
Sticks and stones?
I await

Clearly Salfordlad's post. Bloody Leigh again see!

Well with karl in charge and the way he rotates his squad you could be in with a shout if you wave to him

Who is it *like* then ? FYI there was some Twitter scandal involving an alleged Leigh player on a weekend abroad about a month-6 weeks ago that suggests there may well be some weight in this doing the rounds. I sometimes wonder why i bother coming on here, he more than likely said it if he got sent off, then got charged, accept it. Next you'll be telling us Rob can catch high balls if he really wants to.

Very true John , it was blown up out of all preportions ,nothing was seen of the incident , I think only the players must have heard it , these remarks have been going on for years , I know it doesn't make it right , but name calling is NOT a sending off offence , unless its Racial , having said that where do you draw the line ?Charlie doesn't know

.

How is racial abuse any different to homophobic? We cant have one rule for some abuse and another for other abuse.
