The older Fax fans behind us seemed to be enjoying ripping into Sam at every opportunity. "You didn't like that one did you Barlow" etc. Problem is it seemed to be Jamie Acton they were shouting at.

Well as usual Charlie knew I had faith , also had the company of Andy Gregory for the game , he was very impressed with our performance obviously not the first half though he said we are the St Helens of the Championship playing like that .I asked what was the turning point of the game ?His reply "You cant score without the ball " and he pointed out our poor defence early on , and the introduction of Bob Beswick .

I spoke to him this morning and he says he is going to attend more Leigh games very soon , and even spoke well of Salfordlad and Roman Officer , said he was looking forward to meeting them again .

it appears that the sending off of Barlow was due to punching the Halifax assistant coach right in front of the RFL match commissioner.....I think they will throw the
book at him for that, and add that to his other 'pending' indiscretion I cant imagine
he will wear a Leigh shirt again for the rest of the season.....

What a day. First away game of the year for me and first ever away game for the mrs, she loved it.
Am I right in saying with Bob Beswick on the pitch we won 36-0 and with him off lost 0-28?
He was immense.

Quinny thats twice you have mentioned a pending indiscretion. Either spit it out or......no I can't say it.....

Quinny can't tell you what the 'pending indiscretion' is. As the indiscretion is pending, it can't have happened yet.

Haha...Ok we will see.......I think in his own eyes his antics of yesterday were really his 2014 season swansong....

Yup, we will see.

Is that what happened? Usually if a punch is thrown there’s a bit of commotion afterwards but no one around us saw anything.

Knowing Sam he probably missed, either that or ran and hid afterwards.

if you watch the game on centurions tv about 59 mins in just as we go in to make it 24 - 16 barlow comes across and takes a swing at fax num 4 (heaton?) kinda misses and then starts on 25 (potts) then ando tries to pull him off the pitch, wilkes had been trying to get on for a bit and barlow wasnt having it. He also looked like he was getting in Kez's way at the ptb but that couldve been a deliberate move.

He then gets dragged off and trudges off to sit in dug out but too late as the official dealing with the substitution saw it and ref drags him back on to field to be sent for an early bath.

i was busy having a right go at him for being a complete tool and getting involved in that crap whilst we were on top as i saw him do it.

at 1 hr 8 mins its confirmed by our awesome commentary team who got info from match commissioner

in conclusion watch the game one centurions tv and all is made clear


We concentrated on the rugby after that and reaped the rewards. Even with 12 men if we don't give away stupid penalties and complete our sets we will be very hard to deal with for most teams.

you missed the third swing he took at halifax assistant coach......did he actually connect with any or was it 0 from 3 lol ? Good player when he wants to be....just an absolute tool......I bet fev are hoping he doesn't get banned for the cup game lol
