[i:5a56um9q]Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.[/i:5a56um9q] [b:5a56um9q]George Orwell [/b:5a56um9q] [i:5a56um9q]There are none so blind as those who will not see.

Rugby League is folklore. What captures our imagination is not simply the winning or the losing, it's the stories. The stories of perseverance, of sheer will, of hard work, of heartbreak, of miracles, and of triumph and tragedy.:43504.jpg



R I P Dana, top bloke, heart of a lion, will be sadly missed. My condolences to his family.

I trust that the club are in discussions with the RFL & Fev to allow our supporters to pay their respects to Dana before kick-off.

[quote="littlerich":1czuya0c]Widnes will be glad to get away from Leigh. They've been regularly pumped, roasted and left in the alley-way by the lobbygobblers. Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.[/quote:1czuya0c]:1030.gif



RIP Dana. Thanks for your services to Leigh Rugby Club.

Can i just say that Mr Mad has apologized and explained his reasons for his original post.
He and his son are closer than most to this sad episode and i hope we can all put it behind us.

There is I believe a Memorial service in Newton-le-willows on Sunday and in the afternoon, Lee, tui liku and others are doing a pig roast and other stuff for Dana at Leigh Miners.

The minutes silence at the KC for Dana was a poignant one. As always in RL it was tremendously well respected.

The Swinton chairman is in attendance and was in tears.

I imagine this tragedy has left a mark on the lives of far more than just his family.

Also, please let me apologise and add that my original post was not intended to cause any offence, only to frame his time at Leigh

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



Had Radio Manchester on earlier which was covering the Wigan v Crusaders game which also had a minutes silence (every game will have one I would imagine), it was obviously correctly observed as the radio was silent for 1 minute - not something you get very often which was a pretty good showing by Radio Manchester as well IMO
