Mate, you're from Leigh, not exactly the Sandbanks of Greater Manchester now is it?

I sat in the stand 1st half and behind the sticks in the 2nd half........Stupids saw I had a Leigh shirt on and didnt say owt to me about moving - I didnt have any problems with them and had a chat with 1 of them.....thought they were ok.

I thought the stewards were told to do what they did and they were all very decent with everyone before during and after the match.

That is all you want a steward to do, respect the fans and get respect back (from most people).

I really do think stadium will struggle with an away following bigger than Leigh's today. It currently does not seem equipped to handle a big gate and the organisation was odd to say the least.

From the off the stewards seemed surprised to see 3 coaches turn up at the official car park together and there was quite a wait whilst each one in turn had to be directed onto the car park , turned round and passengers disembarked whilst the access road was blocked for the duration.

Inside at the rear of the stand there was the farcical situation of a line of stewards 'segregating' the two sets of supporters whilst the sole toilets and bar facilities were found further on within the Featherstone controlled area. Bizzare to say the least.

There were no such problems for the Featherstone players on the pitch though it has to be said.

The view from that stand is far superior. However i had to move nearer the front in 2nd half, due to some, no alot of foul and abusive language from leigh fans, is there any excuse for this sort of behaviour, or need, just idiots and unfortunately ours.

There will be one more home game for Fev this season, against Leigh or Batley, and by the start of next season all being well the new stands will be ready and the stadium capacity will be 9k+.

That new stand looks like it will be good when it's finished and I think the pitch is also being extended as well isn't it?

I must admit your stand at present looks like it will be very good when finished , I like the trips to Fev , and think your ground will be OK ,

The field will be 100m long when it is all finished There is alot of work going on in and around the ground at the moment but when it's finished it should be àlot better for the away fans

As for segregation I'm not sure it was it was just that Fev gave Leigh there own section of the stand which I think makes for a better atmosphere I hope when the stand is extended they give that section to the away fans all the time it does IMO improve the atmosphere and makes it a better day

Yes I agree mate it's a lot better in that stand and like you say it does make the atmosphere a lot better.

Nay mate im from Leythunia a highly cultured society where East meets West

From a Personal point of view i hate to see comments like this. 1st game of season ( going what seems along way back) i was in with fev fans when we played Leigh and we were all mingled in and the banter was great, no problems or anything, cant understand why you were all put in stand. I look forward to the visits from you guys as the chants/banter is always enjoyable, plus you bring probably the best away following in league to fev,

As someone has already said once stands finished for next season, we should be able to swap ends behind sticks and have food/drinks and toilets to accomadate everyone.

So should you beat Batley and sheffield not lose to Dewsbury, i look forward to fev v leigh again!!

Actually since they seem to have got rid of that young idiot who wore a Paramatta Eagles shirt when we drew 28 all I think Fev is not a bad pit village to visit.

Mind you once the season is over I will have a few days in my adopted home in.Benidorm.

I am a Leyther with style and expect before I jet off I will watch us demolish Fax in the Grand Final.

I know Charlie told me.
