| Cannot complain about the result - we were well beaten by a better team on the day.
We can however complain about the filthy state of the seating in the East Stand. We were sitting just left of the posts (as viewed from behind the sticks) and all of the seats around us were coated in a disgusting brown scum that was instantly transferred onto peoples clothing. The backs of the seats were equally as bad as the seats themselves.
What kind of welcome is that for the best visiting support Widnes are likely to see this season (with possible exception of Bradford).

| Quote: Pats plastic pitch "Felt like there was a lot of 1 up rugby from Leigh and on the few occasions you tried to throw the ball out, you looked to break.
Liam Hood has an off day because I think when he ticks, as you know, he can be class.
Great day and obviously the wrong result for Leigh but we’re looking forward to the return fixture and good to have this proper rugby league derby back.'"
Summer bash first before the return fixture.. Hopefully see you there... ![Wink icon_wink.gif](images/smilies//icon_wink.gif)

| Great away following and good to have this rivalry and fixture again. Looking forward to the Summer bash from my holidays in Crete, which I hope I will find on a TV. Be interesting how the season goes, as still some catching up for Widnes and now off the bottom due to points difference. ![Very Happy icon_biggrin.gif](images/smilies//icon_biggrin.gif)

| Well as I have said before, Widnes really are our bogey team, as they have now lost to York and a Dewsbury. How is it they can get up to comfortably beat us, yet lose at home to a side that had lost 7 out of 10 before today? Fortunately they are now 12 points behind us, but they can still hinder our top 5 chances if they beat us twice more this season.

Dewsbury were beating Toronto 17-4 earlier this season....but maybe they prefer plastic pitches to us ! ![Very Happy icon_biggrin.gif](images/smilies//icon_biggrin.gif)

Possibly the game before the Widnes fixture took its toll!
