If a Huddersfield player had been as stupid as Acton, you would have 'gone into hiding'.

Not much to lose , a player out for 2+ months coming back into a couple of pressure cooker games , potentially with the wrong mind set
Once the grading was 8+ games there was no other option

I said 'seem to' based on what i have read from various people connected to the Leigh club, from it's owner through to the fans.

Without doubt it was a stupid thing to do , but on a par with Ben Flower's ?
That is how the neutral fan community has reacted , and given he will now miss the same number of games ( 11 ) obviously how the disciplinary have seen it
Seems a bit of a Whitch hunt to be honest , and that is ignoring the suspicion that Mr Bird was feigning injury to avoid penalising by the ref , something that cannot be proven either way

| I remember a lot of Wigan fans who thought Flower was harshly treated. And now there are quite a few Leigh fans who think Acton has been harshly treated! How he had the gall to appeal is ridiculous.

Are you suggesting the 2 incidents are comparable ?

Why indeed , unless of course he couldn't be sure the ref wouldn't see it as a late/high tackle on the opposition half back , personally it wasn't late , high ? , well it did hit Reynolds in the face
If he was concussed he couldn't have returned to the pitch after going off , but he did
Not a good trip to France in the end

| Indeed, but for Sheffield Eagles donating their assets to Huddersfield, midget Daz would be supporting Leeds Rhino's.

| Some of the Leigh fans are absolutely sound and all clubs have their idiots. But I genuinely think that a disproportionately large number of Leigh fans are really weird.

Well Jean, I am a Leigh fan and I dont think I am weird !
I would love to go for a drink with you in your favorite chateau
Would that be:
The Talbot Arms ?
The Parkers Arms ?
The prince of Wales ?
The Blind Tiger ?
The George ?
All really nice "chateau's" in Chorley
