"sheffield player ducked into his arm" Yeah ok, Thats a good one, we can all use that one all year, Ducked into his arm, are you having a laugh............................

Great performance and result..but I don't know why they bother. The people of Leigh should hang their heads in shame and AT should find somewhere to spend his money where the people appreciate it.

Should have been 2500 minimum on..very disappointing..."Super League? You're having a laugh..."

Classic!

sore loser

how did that chant go?.... oh yes

WE ONLY NEED TWELVE MEN

maybe instead of ducked i should have said stumbled but who cares we won with 12 men!!!

could not agree more...brilliant performance but only 1800 could be bothered.

as a rugby town this is rubbish, somebody please tell me what we can do?
who could blame basil for moving on when the first sl coach gets sacked

It was a red card for me. Like Nozzy said, it'd be good if the consistency was there but from what it looked like, Alstead clearly hit square in the face an dI dont think it helped with him rushing into the tackle aswell, making it happen at such as fast pace.

The lads dug very deep and ground out an excellent win. Fantastic effort considering we had 12 men for about 50 minutes.

Thought the lads played very well,showed great team work and commitment

I think the crowd baying at the ref was misplaced,what crimes did he infact commit?

If people sit and enjoy the game instead of screaming like banshees at tackles the opposition do they would properly go home without a banging head



On the marketing front ,what exactly did we do? as I missed it?

At the moment it is very very expensive for a family of 4 to attend on a spur of the moment thing,and thats the area we need to pay attenion too really.

Well after a fairly sluggish start we got to grips and scored to equalise inside twenty minutes. Alstead IMO deserved the red card and I feared the worst. This Eagles side can score points and have proved that today. The ref's decisions at times were bizarre to say the least but calling him a banker made things worse for us with the consecutive penalties awarded to the Eagles. When in the second half we conceded tries to bring the score to 24-20 I thought it was lost. 12 men against an Eagles side that can score points is a big ask of our team. However, our true mettle came through and we deservedly got a win in what can only be described as a game that we had to dig deep to record a win against the odds!

Is 1878 the official attendance?

Looked to me that it was a bit better than that, although anything less than 2500 with the performances this team are giving is dissapointing.

I would guess that at about 50 Sheffield supporters which has probably been about the average away support at the LSV in the league this season.

Good summary by Plonk and a few of the ref's decisions looked odd but he was nearer to the play than me.

What I did not like however was the leniency he allowed at the play the ball.

Sheffield looked good out wide and had some fast backs so our win was all the more creditable imo with us having to move our stand off to the wing for 50 minutes.

All in all our lads want to win and it showed. The fans got behind the side which was good to hear and re the crowd I thought it was a lot more than our last game at the LSV but reported to be a lot lower which surprised me and infact a mate said to me they got the first digit wrong. Ah well.

The HT entertainment was great too. Glad they don't play for us.
