I don't think any player had a bad game!

Superb, would have been even better if they could reduce the forward passes and kick a few more goals. Love it

best sack the kicker then

Looking at who's playing who ,do you reckon we will drop back to 7th ?

This week: Keighley Cougars V Sheffield Eagles Swinton Lions V Featherstone Rovers Dewsbury Rams V Hunslet Hawks York City Knights V Batley Bulldogs I reckon Sheffield, Fev, Dewsbury and Batley will all win so I reckon it would put us back to about 6th if they do. www.leighlife.com/index.php?page ... xandtables

Whoever asked for the attendance, it was 2,062 according to Sky.

thats what was given out too.

Well done Leigh, a good result against the Fax there

...I do miss beating Widnes though. Why should SL teams get all the fun?

Variety is the spice of life Nik, getting spanked by somebody new is probably a nice change for them

Beat 'em again next week, and we may have found our new 'bitches'!!

(Although once we've got the knack of beating a team on a regular basis, they invariably get elevated to SL!!!)

To be fair, that was a very bad week for the club - we had just lost Arthur as Chairman and the place was under a bloody big black cloud.

I think you are kind of missing my point!

We always seem to have had a club who we've 'had the indian sign over'....one team that, however bad the season was going, we could virtually guarantee a win! For quite a few seasons that team was Hull KR. Then in recent years, since HKR were promoted, it's been Widnes. We now find ourselves looking for a new 'bitch', and as we have now had 'back to back' (albeit 9 months, and two separate seasons!) wins over Halifax, the opportunity of a 'hat-trick' of favourable results then starts to look like a 'streak'!!

Remember - before the run of consecutive victories over Widnes, they had won the previous match!! (previous 3 or 4 matches if memory serves!!)....but you've got to start a streak with a win (unless it's a losing streak!), so 2 in a row, with the chance to play them again so soon, has the makings of a potential winning streak! It may be that there are other clubs who we beat more regularly, and haven't lost against in years (one for our Stattos there!), but it feels a lot sweeter when it's one of the clubs you expect to be 'in the mix' when the trophies are being handed out!!

And, as Michael pointed out, the result at the LSV last year came at a very dark time for the club. Had those announcements not come at the time they had, I can't see Halifax having come anywhere near putting 30+ points on us....no one else had laid a glove on us by that stage of the season!!!
