Quote: kirkhall "The game was played in February 1981 and Leeds were winning by 9pts to 2pts, cant remember how long the game lasted ? The following month Leigh won the replay 14pts to 11pts!

iirc, gerry kershaw came out just before the teams did at the start of the 2nd half, and realised it had to be abandoned.

Quote: jesus-is-coming "Roy Howath kicking for touch with a penelty at fartown ,hudds old ground

Big touch finder shot off like a rocket came whizzing out of the air and BOOOOOM hits a kid sat on the fence....made me laugh anyway
Reminds me of the one at Donny a few years ago, before their ground move. Can't recall which team but a kick to touch was taken, flew through the air and hit a woman Leigh fan smack on the head. She'd no idea as she was chatting and didn't see it coming...but a few hundred speccies did and revelled in her embarrasment!

That happened to my girlfriend at the NRC game this season against Oldham. She use to go on about how good looking Robbie Paul was until he kicked a penalty right at her head now she doesn't like him strangely but if I ever met him I would shake his hand for that one icon_lol.gif

I was only a kid but remeber coming back from about 16 points down to beat Bradford after Woody sat Rathbone on his ar*e with a swift left right, 82/ 83 I think. The startled rabbit look on his face was apicture.

That was my missus and she's never recovered properly icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

She hardly saw the rest of the game because of all the stars she saw - and it broke her sunglasses icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

And to top it off, it wasn't a kick to touch, we had just scored a try and it was Parky Pig returning the ball from the conversion icon_surprised.gifops: icon_surprised.gifops: icon_surprised.gifops:

When we played fulham away, think it was steve donlan converting a try and the ball hit the L in the fulham writing on the stand or scoreboard, causing it to fall off! Think the papers read something like Steve kicked the "L" out of fulham!!

once heard joe lydon interviewed about his funniest moment in league.

he went on to say that andy gregory was taking a drop kick from under the posts when the ball hit the crossbar and bounced back over his head into the crowd behind him

v Leigh at Widnes in the John Player Cup, Leigh in old first division beat Widnes and lost to Humbles in semi at Saints.
I recall a famous 'He's fat, he's round his belly's on the ground Michael Burke, Michael Burke ' chant as Dessie ran around him for fun.

Remember a few years ago, going to Thrum Hall to watch Fax v Leigh. Our coach arrived early, and as we got to the ground, we saw that the gates were open, so we went in, straight to the bar. We'd been in about half an hour, when this old bloke, wearing a rather fetching combo of flashers mac and flat cap, clutching an old oxo tin, appears at the door and shouts "Hey yo lot, thas not paid!" Never seen so many blokes make a dive for the bogs. Needless to say, Fax didn't make much money that day.

The Watcher thought it was hilarious when a pint of lager was thrown all over the ref at HP when we were in SL.What a great shot & the liquid was lit up by the floodlights as it flew through the air like an guided missile straight at the intended target.

remember that well, it was in the championship year of '82

it was a kick to touch from donlan after getting a penalty, and it knocked the "l" off the stand!

Wally diving about the Victory Park mud at half time. Boxing Day game mid 80's IIRC.

I may have dreamt this but during our win against a very bad Wigan side in the early 80's, the Wham song 'Wake Me Up Before you Go Go' was played in the second half.

I know who did that and it was bitter actual!y! icon_lol.gif And i actually met the in goal judge who it also went all over a few weeks later in a pub and he told us he said turned to Ronnie Laughton and said " I wouldnt mind, but i dont even like bitter." Laughton then promptly gave him a really evil look and walked a bit quicker down the tunnel with out saying a word! icon_lol.gif
