Quote: Jack Gaskell "Ok, here's my take on what happened this afternoon. Firstly, and here is where I come across as a bit of a killjoy, I think it is wrong to overlook one or two important factors in the result. So, firstly the caveats before the celebration of the brilliance.

This was not a full strength York team. It was hit by injuries and unavailability. By all accounts they were struggling to put a match day 17 together. It was a bare bones selection bereft of several senior players with considerable SL experience.

Secondly, York are playing badly at the moment. They are clearly a team without confidence. Their recent form has been poor. A much stronger York team on paper lost last week to Bradford, yes, Bradford. If ever there was a worrying sign as to where you are at as a team at present then it is a loss to Bradford.

Thirdly, there are better teams still to play this season. Opponents will be more physical than York and the games will be quicker with much faster and harder defences lining up to kill space and slow the play the ball. Core skills will be much better tested than today. Those will be games where decision making will have to be split second fast and accurate. Today, time on the ball was leisurely. Lets not kid ourselves as to York's limitations.

Despite all this, poor teams, and York were a poor team today, have to be put to the sword. Leigh had not done this all season, until today. Regularly putting 50 or 60 points on opponents in recent weeks has masked the fact that we have not been playing at our very best. Just listen to our coach's post match interviews every week. He has not been satisfied, often assessing dominant performances as no better than 7 out of 10's. So, today, the result and performance has been coming but, boy did it come with a bang.'"

Only just occurred to Bongser that we are now Centurions in two senses! Leigh's tweet with sound of that last gasp try should be pinned! Can't stop watching it. Don't ever want to stop watching it - length of the field through ten pairs of hands with LSV screaming for blood!

Just a perfect day.

Quote: CHEADLE LEYTHER "Sorry to put a dampener on things, but why was there only a paltry crowd of 2,744, down by over 400 from the Barrow game two weeks ago?'"


A little like the "Were you there?" fanzine where hundreds of people claim to have been there when the official attendance was about a dozen (Bury, Rochdale, Halifax? Can't recall). There will be ten thousand Leythers claiming to have been there.

This, slightly modified, from Shakespeare's "Henry V":

"And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall count themselves accursed they were not there.
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That cheered with us 'pon Mary's day."

Quote: Jack Gaskell "Sexy rugby....at last'"



100% I have seen the steady decline of the quality of rugby in SL over the past 10 years , comparing them to the Wigan/Widnes teams in the late 80's early 90s , the game just isn't played the same anymore , we have gone way too one dimensional and all about %, as poor and wounded as York were on Sunday the Leigh team looked fit , players running at gaps hitting the ball at speed and the support play was out of this world .

I get the impression most SL coaches would be happy with their completion rates being 100% even if the lost 30 nil .

Whether or not we can get past the million pound game I don't know , its going to be hard and some of the players will be doing themselves out of a job if they do.

Nice to see you back, A.
Wonderful B&B. Such a shame we can’t keep it.
