Thank you, I wasn't sure. It's just that i saw it twice yesterday and one was penalized and the other wasn't.

Wouldn't say the following was that bad - lower than a few other games where we've taken 3-4k away however you only have to look at the average attendances to shut down that argument (for instance why was one stand completely closed and the other 2 stands barely full - you're the ones at home not us?) - will leave it at that as nobody can really bang on about attendances, they're all pretty shocking these days.

Also not everyone has bank holidays off work and those that do might go away for a long weekend / decide to stay closer to home, go out in the morning and watch the game later in the evening.

In terms of the other 'fan' I don't believe you'll be in the championship next season, you look good enough to be able to go through the middle 8's and then focus on rebuilding for next year.

Enjoy the rest of the season.

Mines a pint... 'Hi-Ho Silver Lining' Headingley 05th October 2014.:1392.gif



I actually thought Dereks main gripe was aimed at the inconsistency/standard of refereeing in SL right across the board as opposed to just 80 mins v Castleford.

Just as a side note, many say the number 1 referee is Phil Bentham, anyone know how many times he has refereed Leigh in SL this season?

Thought you were badly done to when the ref sent it up as a no try,when the camera clearly showed it was down, not sure if it was Acton or Patterson she!!te decision, probably wouldn't have helped but from our experiences it does leave you a touch bitter and frustrated.

Is he allowed to being a Leyther himself?

First accept sadness. Realise that without losing 70% of the time, winning wouldn't be such a relief.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32990.jpg



I don’t think it was a wise move from Derek Beaumont to publicly criticise the standard of referees. I can understand the pressure he’s under but from what I have witnessed from the past outspoken views of our owner it will only make things much worse for Leigh. DB would have been better served taking a few deep breaths, having a large glass of wine and airing his views through the right channels. The RFL don’t react very well to public criticism and if you kick one of them they all limp. I can understand a fine may be irrelevant to him but the payback will much more punishing. Expect a few more of your key players come the 8's to be cited for visits to Red Hall.

The best thing he could do is issue a public apology to the referee and the RFL saying his views were influenced by the pressure he’s under and having watched the game back on video his comments were harsh. I doubt he’ll even consider it for a second but I think it would be better for your clubs SL survival hopes if he did.

Given how our players get cited and others don't for identical offences already , what have we to lose ?

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg



Couple of points about posts above. The ref will is highly unlikely to get a public apology and whats any of this to do with social media. It was all said in a very public press conference and also in the aftermatch presentations later.

To be honest I didn't take much notice but if it was the same as Reynolds' then it should have had the same result.

It was , but it was the opposite ( and cost us a try , and possibly the game ) Result

heard snippets on talk sport radio today,one of the topics being the bad standard of referees in football and super league,so not just db who thinks its about time things improved.my own opinion is that there is no consistancy in the game from referees,to disciplinary,stadiums,kick off times.i hope his comments result in an improvement,but i doubt it.
