Sorry.............

Who would have thought it.

Well done Fax no complaints.

Couldn't make it across the pennines tonight, so staked my entrance money with Skybet. Very happy with my £110 return! The season starts here!!

good win for fax. i enjoyed the game on sky. espically the first half.all the best for the rest of season and hopefully will be seening fax next season in the super league at the ground i support

Still up..Can't believe we beat 'The Cheats'...Best performance for a couple of seasons.........Another Champagne Cocktail please.....................Will we get promotion if we finish 3rd??

Right, its half one, finished work at eleven and I'm up at six. Sky plus hd checked and did its bit for the cause. Nobody was allowed to mention the score, mobile turned off at seven in case, no car radio on just on the off chance. I've just finished watching it and IT WAS WORTH EVERYTHING!

stunning fax, we have been waiting for that. Excellent all round and defense was superb. I ain't going to sleep a wink and who cares..... fetch the crate of Stella in will ya love, GET IN THERE FAX

And now that brandy left over from Christmas, lovely stuff.....

well played last night we Barrow should of beat Leigh twice this year, cracking result for you guys i enjoyed every minute.

Trust you lot to find form last night! Well done - you played like the 'Fax we have come to know at Leigh, with attacking rugby at its best. What's more, you added an excellent defence too - although our somewhat predictable efforts were probably quite easy to contain.

One final thought - what might the score have been, if you hadn't 'declared' at half time?

It was like the pretenders against the real deal last night. Leigh the best attacking side in the comp this year against the masters of attacking rugby and it certainly looks like normal service was resumed. 94% completion rate in the first half and because of that Leigh didnt really stand a chance. Lets hope this isnt a false dawn because we certainly looked good with Nobby`s steely defence mixed with MC`s attacking flair. On that performance we have shown once again we can beat anyone in the league, if we can sneak in the playoffs who would fancy playing us when we can pull a performance like that out.

we must not fall into the trap of all of a sudden thinking we are worldbeaters, however good last night was

We can but the players cant, no.

No but we should enjoy the moment of beating the best team in the comp for a few days!

We were very good but I am annoyed with our new coach of Seanfax who clearly been showing Nash and Worrincy how to stick their arms out to knock on for inceptions LOL!

hoyyyyyyyyy u,lol

what u trying to say?????,,lmao

THat result will have stoked up the Hunslet headhunters for next week, we know we can beat them at rugby so hopefully a strong ref, in fact can we take last nights ref with us all season.

Hunslet are the scrubs of this division...

Despite the idiots at Red Hall trying to kill the game below SL off, that game really cheered me up. OK LOeigh do have problems but Fax have been awful most of the year. I was impressed with everybody and the team (Players and Coaches) deserve a massive pat on the back just for the tackling sting in the 2nd half alone. Leigh were camped on our line for a good 10-15 minutes but never got through. The defence and commitment was top notch. The players that we have been knocking to some extent really stood up. Nash was top notch and unlucky not to get a couple of tries. Black and Jones were everywhere. Greenwood looked to be a different player and his pass late in the first half was quality. Was impressed with the new lad Gil who made some very good runs and was difficult to stop as was Aizue and Barlow.
Going on that performance I dont fear Fax going to Fav at all and think we could get a win. Hunslet will be at their best of playing dirty and slowing the ball down etc. I just hope Fax and other Championship teams are allowed to compete at a higher level soon. The RFL are killing the game and its very sad to see Leigh struggle and hope that somebody can step in. I dont think the way the RFL run the game has helped any championship team and why we all get small gates now. Keep it up Fax and all the best to Leigh in their current problems. Well done Ref as well for making a good game more enjoyable.

If penky had of played, we would have had to swop beswick, who got the MOM didnt he.....and we wouldnt have used white, rob and miles so much from dummy half, which i think is where we won the game.....


.......so quite alot if you think about it tactically!





plus when penky got sin binned at fev we scored two tries

looking at remaining fixtures we should drop no more than 6 points at the most (barrow away, widnes?, and one of the batley games)



if we loose any, we need bonus points, we have turned the corner now!

watch out hunslet! sheffield put 70 on em!

We have had Tim Roby a few times this season and he, in my opinion, has had some good games. For some reason - frustration probably - Leigh fans didn't like him last night. I don't think he dropped many balls, had any passes intercepted, or missed a single tackle! I didn't have a problem with him, and neither did 2,000 Leythers when we stuck 50+ up Widnes, with him in charge!

Very good selective editing. My reply was to your original post which you have neglected to add in the quote I see.

Just suffering from the same parochial myopia all fans go through when your team is up against it...with the benefit of watching it back on the tellybox, you realise that those calls you were screaming blue murder for were in fact right... the passes for Banno's try and donlan grounding behind the line spring to mind as those most vehemently disputed last night

Well done fax!!

I was so close to having a bet on you lot to win but wife had laptop!

Having Nobby it was only a matter of time, won't get those odds again.

Best of luck for your SL application you have a much better chance with Noble being there.

Hopefully the RFL will expand SL to 15 and you will get in.

i wouldnt know how to add more than 1 quote tbh!

sorry if my inferior computing skills irritates you.

for those who are interested, i said we would "stand no chance without penky"

how wrong i was eh!
