Not many people deserve a derby result like this more than Lee Radford. One of the nicest guys in the game and some of the questions being asked of him over the last six months were farcical at best. Top coach, top bloke.

Well today is another record to add to Radford's ever growing list.

Well done lads, a great team performance. Everyone did their bit, never expected the end result at half time.
Mini back on form, 80 minutes I think?

no complaints from me pal a good contest up to halftime then our 6 or 7 championship quality players came out to play garbutt, hall, linnet the only ones that can hold their heads up ,second half was men against boys stuff a few crap calls never had much imput on the final score i thought the leigh game was a good gauge to were we are , fc played well 2nd period ,you smelt the coffee and delivered well done

Fair play, it was more a dig at Keith and Ruby, they were all over this forum last season and when we lose, but daren't come on here when we win.

You did to us what Warrington did to you once you got on a roll I knew it was going to be try after try and the way Saints and Wigan are going at it you might have a chance on Monday

Rovers could not handle Kelly. He took the game to them and they panicked every time he had ball in hand. Good performance from everyone but for me Kelly was the difference.

Cant help but laugh at all the deluded Rovers fans on their Facebook page saying they lost because of the ref. Embarrassing themselves.

There's a reason he gets paid to watch the sport and we don't, so yes, his opinion does have independent analytical value.
