| Quote ant7t2="ant7t2" so constructive criticism should be welcomed.
'"
My criticisms are always constructive unless I am conversing with someone who isn't actually reading what I am typing.
I doubt there will be anything to criticise tomorrow, I hope not anyway.

I was talking about fans criticising the team, not each other.

| Quote Alan="Alan"Judging from the Championship stats. for referrals to the Disciplinary, (source - RFL website) I would suggest that there is no other example, this season, of 3 consecutive games, garnering 30-odd referrals.
London - 0
Workington - 1
Hunslet - 2
Batley - 3
Whitehaven - 3
Doncaster - 4
Dewsbury - 6
Halifax - 7
Bradford - 7
Sheffield - 10
Featherstone - 11
Leigh - 37'"
I'm sorry I can't see were your getting 37 from in 3 consecutive games.I count 38 referrals in the last 12 games in total.

Those stats listed were totals for the season, for all clubs, 'atomic'.
I believe 'maurice' was suggesting that there would be other examples of 34 referrals in 3 consecutive games this season. The total referrals I quoted would make 'maurice's' suggestion impossible.
The 34 referrals were:- v Halifax - 13; v Wakefield - 13; v Featherstone - 8; and included the opposition.

Assumptions wrong again Alan, if you are motivated to find faults you will see faults when none are there is what I said and imo that's whats happening. Even the ones we are getting banned for are inconsistent, eg Morleys far worse than Armstrongs yet we get the ban, Emmitt went with a Batley player saying he didnt swear yet gets banned at the same time Moore was like a Tourettes sufferer and nothing.
This the Kirmond case after the incident with Kay ''Player reacts to opponent lashing out by making contact with opponent’s face with pushing motion. Sin Bin Sufficient'' - now that was not what I saw

| Quote glow="glow"I can understand why other teams fans/coaches/players see us as a right pain in the booty, because we are.
We do niggle, we do laugh at their mistakes, we do have a one in all in policy, we probably do have more than our fair share of 'enforcers', we may need a parking permit at Red Hall etc etc.
But the negative stuff we do is by far out weighed by the good stuff, I haven't checked but I think we've scored more and conceded less than anyone in either of the top two divisions, we play in the main good entertaining expansive rugby, we regularly score back to back tries (think we scored 3 against Batley without them touching the ball apart from KO), we regularly score 80m plus tries passing it through several players, we're on a club record winning run, we've beat as many SL teams this season as we did when we were in it, LSV is a great fortress, our crowds are growing, we've got a passionate young coach who's building a team willing to literally fight for the cause, we've just gone Full time, we're attracting 'named' players. We're regularly on the BBC and when was the last time SKY, or any of the SL clubs passed an interest in us?
Of course we could and probably should improve on discipline, and concentrate more on the good stuff but in reality I can't see us changing any time soon.
And after watching Leigh for going on 50yrs I think its great that we are once again a team who's punching above our weight and ruffling a few feathers.
It doesn't happen that often
so enjoy it.
'" well said glow young man. We all have 1 thing in common, we want the best for our great club. We all have different opinions, which is healthy, how boring would this MB and life be if we all agreed.

Inconsistency must be one of the biggest gripes for players and coaches. (and fans)
Without being at all "motivated to find faults", my statement of 34 referrals from our last three games is a FACT. Whatever inconsistencies/bias amongst officials, 34 is way too high for three games. Accepted that two of those games have been in the public glare of live TV - and hence, I believe, a reason for the high level of scrutiny. However, many supporters, in the admittedly genteel environs of the West Stand, have been grumbling about the attitude of certain of our players. The brawl in the Halifax game was, in my opinion, a disgrace to both teams.

Your statement is incorrect,as you were stating a figure that includes the opposition FACT..If you would care to support your opinion by adding how many of the Leigh referrals there were and actually carried a charge, I would agree with your opinion (NOT)..But you are going all round the houses to make a point thats not there.FACT.
