One call you name.

Give a rest you fool. Every week you're the same.

Good post, saved me replying to his obsession with refs.

Thought beswick was absolutely outstanding tonight. Had an immense game, infact they all did! Brierley on one leg is still the quickest player on the pitch.

Awesome from 1-17, proud as punch after that. Well done to ryan on his hat trick but I have to say I think ridyard was fantastic tonight, he kicked batley to death. If we get a couple more players back from injury we really could take some stopping. We could be in for a really strong end to the season, bring it on.

Watch the video theres a few more cock head. Thats me getting wound up with your posts. If you sat near me you would hear me picking up the things that refs miss that we get away with. I'm not biased just think that simple mistakes like the ones I witness should'nt happen. You Reffy are beyond response.

Don't think there's any need to get personal, especially on a night like tonight!

What a game that was tonight !!

Some great performances. Tommy Goulden ran himself to a stand still, Tom Spencer is impressive in attack and defence and is not afraid to front up and what can you say about Ryan Brierly that has not been said already. Class.

To be honest all 1-17 were outstanding.

Unfortunately I will miss the final as I will be in Turkey, but I will have my Leigh shirt on that day and hope to catch it all live in a bar somewhere.

However I hope as many Leythers as possible do make it over to The Shay to get right behind the lads. They deserve it.

Get yourself a flight back, you won't regret it!

I'm just hoping there's no ash clouds or owt as I'll be in Sweden 24 hours before the game!

Don't Matt. I should'nt have posted that but I have a it's done. I sit in L126 west north if anyone wants to talk.

oh shut up....we are in a final.

I'm working that day, although, I can feel a little bit of migraine coming on that weekend already.

I too thought Beswick was outstanding. Did 80 minutes if I'm not mistaken. Led the line speed all night and was intense throughout.

Kicking game won the game in the first half, it turned Batley round almost every set. I thought Batley let themselves open on Gardner/Pownall's side thoughout the game but Ridyard/Brierley/McNally didn't have a go at it.

Would love to see the stats on territory, possession and tackling. Absolute mountain of work carried out.

I notice the final is on a Saturday afternoon this year !
Should be one heck of a day out and whilst its a pity its Halifax rather than Blackpool it should still be a occasion for the supporters.

A early chance for the BOD / BOM to show they can market our club and sell it to the towns around Leigh and the local communities by ensuring we take the biggest amount of fans to the NRC than any of the other Championship Cup finals we've played in.

Looking forward to it.

'We want our Trophy back'

5pm kick off apparently, with the 'Bowl' final at 2.30, though I've no idea on the participants in that one.

Already seen a few have booked hotels in Halifax(!) for the Friday night. An ale trail on the train for me I reckon.
