no he was doubtfull as it was

Fair play to Barrow today though, good support and their players wouldn't give up. Good crowd today too, over 2500. Leigh missed Govin but Donlan's second was the best try i've seen for years.

I thought Basils Post-Match sum up was fair ,saying boths sides had about a 90%completion rate ,Nigel Wright was very magnanimous in defeat said it was probably Barrows best performance , i thought we missed Gov, but we will have to improve again to beat Fev ,still a wins a win and it must have been very hot out there ,CMON YOU LEYTHERS .

Totally agree about the ref,not once did he threaten to put someone in the bin and yes he gave 5 pens for the head shots but missed 2 that we all saw in west stand ,I thought that was the worst i've seen him ref

It was hot where we were with 'Basil' breathing fire down our necks

Barrow played well today and showed they have good players and looked a lot fitter than when we played them at their place.

Unrecognisable from when they "played" at Fev.

Our last try was so amazing I cannot wait for Fred to post his blip tv thing. Seven minutes left and they come up with that.

Older supporters need to take a viagra 10 minutes before the fast forwarding button and watch it. Orgasmic moment.

lol frank cant wait to see it again

Thx for th coverage. The game kicked off at 4am my time so I didn't follow live but I did the next best thing when I got up by not checking the score but reading the updates in order. Well done to the lads. Close but they did what was needed.

Looks like RHP's Twitter is giving Leigh Updates a run for their money!

Me too. And they are right about the budgy creepers.

Meercats of Meeakovo am I wrong ?

They did enough to win. We got the lead early 2nd half and then we just held them at arms length. I am quite sure that Leigh could have upped the tempo anytime in the game and won by a bigger margin, but they are keeping fuel in the tank for Fev game.
They will beat Fev I have no doubts about it.

You can't have much complaints about the Ref, he was poor for both sides, we were both offside most of the time and he should of penalised us more for high tackling but you got away with lots of forward passes but in the end it evens itself out, The game could of gone either way but yous came out on top and I would of took a bonus point before the game had started easily after attending our terrible performance against Fev but don't forget it's not how you start the season its how you finish it.

Well played and I expect you to finish top come the end of the season.

No offence mate but I highly doubt you will beat Fev.

If you think about it, it was the hottest day of the year so far, both sides were knackered by the end of them game and don't even deny that Leigh wern't but they clearly were, i'm sure that if you could of upped the tempo Ian Millward would of made your side do it as if you could prevent us from getting a bonus point that could be vital.

The big factor is also that Fev didn't have a game this week after there fixture has been rearranged. I expect yous to hold on in the first half against Fev but as the game goes on they will beat you for fitness as Fev are probably the fittest side in the league and add to the fact they didn't have a game I think this will be crucial so they will just edge it.

My judgement may be wrong but good look for the rest of the season and your ground is 20x better than Widnes's will ever be because at least it has some sort of atmosphere.

Can't fault Barrow never gave up even though their forwards were blowing after half an hour, their fans were great yesterday too. Long journey and way way more fans than I expected. Think the stewards moves some of their fans from the East Stand into the North too to let them all stand together which is good to see.

Tactically I think Barrow deliberately didn't put their markers square to nullify McGilvarays scoots and made him have his quietest game for us in that respect. If the ref had picked up on that from the start I think they would have struggled because our forwards got on the front foot early on but we couldn't take advantage of it with fast play the balls tearing up the metres.
