Charlie is oh so friendly on here but really quite offensive on the Leigh forum.

Quote : "The Fax squad are not that worrying , honestly how many of the Fax squad would get into our starting 17.?None."

We could ask it the other way round.

"Honestly how many of the Leigh squad would get into our starting 17.?None."

Why, because we can't afford them!!

I do believe Charlie is a genuinely friendly guy but gets carried away at times and gets friendlier depending on how the Leythers are performing.



Told yer, he sings loudest and posts only when Leigh are winning, when they aren't it's silence.

Free round in that sense today, lose and it's what most people expect, win and we feel a better for a few days, either way life goes on and doesn't depend on a rugby game.

Up the Fax.

The guy has got more faces than the town clock.

Don't forget when he created an alternate login and for months used it to be offensive and rude, often having conversations with his other login, talking to himself on the forum. He went into hiding for a long time once he got found out.

A very very odd person indeed.

It always of great delight when that is brought back up.

There's nowt up with Charlie, apart from being lancastrian, a proper RL bloke if ever there was one. What's offensive about having an opinion? whether you agree with the way Leigh are run by Mr Beaumont or not it would be hard to contest Charlie's claim regarding the players.

Leigh have a good team but they are hardly a team of superstars!

I don't notice him making a statement like that on this forum as it is, quite frankly, offensive!

Leigh are no world beaters and Fax could quite possibly go there today and win but...they have spent their brass on players whilst Fax have kept players who frankly are lucky to have been kept on another year. The thing is though games aren't won on paper and team spirit can take you a long way. It is Simon Grix's job to install that into the players and get the most out of them that he can.

He’s at Crufts today as a spaniel, could be a King Charles but more likely a Cocker.

His thorough bread is called Degsy and it’s main trick is brining dozens of rugby balls in and then dropping them and walking away when he gets bored.

The same players making the same mistakes, giving away the same penalties week on week.

Clearly displaying an inability to listen to their coach and change.

Be surprised if certain players are seen again in the team for a while.

That's the thing though, we can all see it from the stands so the coach must be able to see it but gives the same spiel in his interviews and then does the same thing the next game depsite talking about the definition of insanity. To go in at 14-10 down at half time despite the first 15 minutes and Leigh been a player down, to then end up dropping out from the kick off, giving numerous penalties and ended up 3 scores behind was just abysmal.

Cmon Fax Machine, nowt offensive there just the truth, I wasn’t at the game today, but you couldn’t beat beat us when we went a man down , apparently 2 men down at one stage, we beat ya with only one half back.
And be honest which Fax players would get into the Leigh side?I stand by my statement .NONE.Just being honest.I predicted a 20 - 24 point Leigh win , I would probably have been right had we had 13 men.

Ian you're right. Had Leigh not lost a man we would've won by more than 20.

You know me Faxcar, we have met, I wasn’t at the game today , had a trip to Birmingham at Crufts,our 2 Scottie’s even appeared on the channel 4 programme.
I was quiet during the close season , but mainly because I fail to see Fax as a threat this year, I could be wrong though.
As for Leigh players being well paid...?Im not privy to what they are on , some might be on good contracts , as they are full time , but some are just on wages,we have a good team spirit this year.
I will be at the return fixture at the Shay, it’s my birthday then , hopefully we can meet again.Take care .

Did well enough to get it back to 14 - 10 then we just needed to come out second half with some steady control and discipline and with the extra man build some pressure and try and cash in.

We saw none of that, where their brains were after half time I have no idea.

Even at 24 - 16 and 2 scores Kev just blew any remaining chance with that daft shoulder charge giving away another 2 points pushing it out to 3 scores and spending the last 10 mins in the bin.

Just having a wind up Ian and talking out of my booty.

Scottie’s are my Dogs, and they featured on Channel 4s Crufts programme tonight , Barney and Freddie, you may have seen them ,a lot of folk have messaged us about them.
As for Derek..?He didn’t walk away , took a bit of a back seat, that’s all , still very much involved though.

Hey cmon , I love the wind ups,you are entitled to yer opinion.My Scottie dog Barney had his team at the top of your Fantasy Comp last week, my other Scottie was in 5th place.They know more than me.lol.

Ed Barber had a cracking game for you lot today...

You were definitely favourites at half time, having dragged back a 0-14 deficit (against 13 men) then going in to half time against 11. Incredibly, your discipline went out of the window in the second half, and those three penalties, in kickable positions were stupid gifts.

All in all, it was a bad tempered game. I thought the ref had a bad time of it - all round - although his three cards were spot on, from where I sat. But, for most of the game, he just didn't seem able to get a grip of things, and both teams got well rattled. Having said that, I'm not sure what a ref can do when both sides are as niggly as those today. He's from Australia, so I'll just be charitable and say he's probably used to having another ref on the pitch with him!



It was a pity about the niggle, because both teams scored some nice tries.

Good player!

Not good enough to get into the Leigh squad though Alan.
Charlie knows.

What have I missed with the niggle comments aimed in our direction? Anyway I thought the ref had a good game and did well to handle the game especially when it got to the point where Leigh wanted to fight our players after an offside decision. It was quite bizzare how they totally lost their heads but luckily in the 2nd half we reverted to form and giving away penalty after penalty.

Lol!
