Brilliant news, and richly deserved. A great coach, leader and the main reason that this has been the most enjoyable season for a long while.

Credit to the whole coaching team. The lads are fitter, stronger, more confident and a proper team now. Well done to the BOD for choosing RM in the first place and the players for believing in what Richard has brought to us.

Enjoy the recognition RM. You deserve every bit. And it possibly ain't over yet!!!!!!!!!!!

Well done Richard. I echo the above without repeating it. Fully deserved. Onwards and upwards for the Fax

Fully deserved Richard for picking up reward. A fantastic coach who gets the best out of players. Murrell, Kaye, Heaton look like different players this year. Put this down to Richards coaching and instilling confidence in players. To achieve what he has this year is remarkable considering we are part time and on a smaller budget. Well done Richard

Well Done Richard and his team, very much deserved. It just goes to show, the players were not coached right last year and this year has made a big difference. For me, the player who has shown his true colours is Kaye, playing better than he did at Fev IMHO - very dangerous player.

great to see he gets recognition for what he has done this year.

Very well deserved and made a huge difference. I lost interest and stopped coming during the Harrison era but I am enjoying my rugby once again and really looking forward to the next couple of games.

Apologies from the Leigh representative for missing awards-apparantly the wheels fell off.

Congratulations Richard, absolutely justified. What a different feeling the fans have to the same time last year.

The right decision. We've all seen what he's done, the players all comment he's a top coach, it's great that RL sees his ability too.

We're proud to have you as coach Richard, stick with us and enjoy the journey. Well back you all the way.

Well done RM and also to those pulling on the shirt and those who have backed him.







You have to be able to coach but you also have to have the players buying into it and the backing from the club.
All 3 have been in place this year and I'm sure it is a sign of things to come, it's good to be a Fax fan.
