awesome.cant remember the last time a leigh team tackled like that.me and my lads have got headaches and sore throats from cheering the lads on.every leigh player stood up today and can be proud of themselves as are all the leigh fans who went.
a big mention must go to the guys who subsidised the coaches for us,that generous gesture gave the players what they need,hundreds of leigh fans singing them on..very proud tonight..whens the draw anyone know.?

Chuft to bits.
Thanks to the team, the sponsors for putting the coaches on and Leigh updates for helping me through my shift at work.

On the platforms at work I genuinely shouting 'get in there you beauty!' Along with a fist pump! Some football fans said 'who scored mate?'
'Jonny Pownall!'

Awesome, absolutely awesome.

Congratulations on a brilliant win for you, all the best for the rest of the season.

I hope this goes someway in helping your financial difficulties.

Here's a picture from todays game.

Cheers RFF, not easy to be gracious when your team has lost at home....to a side you usually beat.
Seemed to me Fev were to 'Cavalier' at times, your defence was sound enough though, apart from Matt Gardner's try.
Can't remember the last side (never mind Leigh) scored 3 interceptions in a game, and a close one at that !!
BIZARRE.

I think Sheffield score five interceptions last year in a game...... AT FEV!!!!!

Re: Massively proud to be a leyther : Sun May 19, 2013 6:54 pm  

What was good to hear apart from our solid defence in the 2nd half, was the ability to score 3 tries from interceptions, we usually get chased down.
Top effort from all the players and well done to the Sponsors for the coaches.

Re: Massively proud to be a leyther : Sun May 19, 2013 6:58 pm  

Couldn't be prouder tonight after watching that, fev are a big solid team and to nil them in the second half with them having so much of the ball is fantastic.

A big well done to you for your part in making it possible and also to the fans for not only filling those coaches but turning out in such fine voice.

Had a really nice text off Rob Parker thanking us and It was evident the boys really did appreciate that support today.

If we're drawn away next round I'm up for doing it all again you have my support.

Fantastic performance from the players, coaches and supporters. Having missed the last two games, I was being advised not to go today, so I wouldn't jinx the team! Glad to say, I ignored the advice and went!!

When did we last see Leigh score three long range tries, from passing moves? Even if they were Fev passing moves!

Regardless of the benevolence of Fev today (4 intercepts = 3 tries), the defensive effort in the 2nd half was nothing short of epic. Cracking performance from Leigh, a good loud following and had ya selves a good day out.

Nowt from me, Leigh deserved it. Enjoy .....

Top bloke as always
