Quote="kirkhall"I was at the Shay pre-Beaumont days when Leigh turned in a shocking display, to see Leigh players laughing behind the sticks following another Fax try to add to their rapidly spiralling total really hurt!
The following week we played Wigan away in the CC and I didn't go out of protest, what I also didn't know was that the Leigh players at Fax had not been paid and, didn't know if they were going to be!
I recall Derek Beaumont standing up and saying; i'll pay the players! the rest of course is history

Was that the game Beaumont was fighting in the crowd?
Quote="ColD"If I was a betting man (which I'm not) I would say he has crossed paths with Derek at some point- and it didn't end as it he would have liked
