Just outside the centre of the universe

Nice to see an impartial match report.

Unfortunately, that isn't one!

Near Toronto (but my heart's in Leigh)

I've seen much worse - at least he gave the Mom to (Hunter)Paul!

A rose between 2 thorns

I liked the bit ' despite grounding the ball cleanly over the line Ganson still awarded the try' and for those in any doubt of the sending off Mennell wasnt stepped and off balance hence a lazy arm caught the attacker, he tried to take his head off and we were 10m away.

The best road in Wig@n is the one that leads to Leigh !!!

Has this reporter heard of giving credit where it's due ? :shock:
Blinkered and biased just about sums up the report , as for the ageist comments being hurled at Robbie Hunter Paul , yes we know he's nearing the end of his career but I'm sure u would have put him out to pasture at the start of the first half as an act of damage limitation PMSL .

Don't listen to em Robbie , u just keep playing games like that this season :D

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!

Don't mind the ageist comments, however I do mind some of the comments/songs coming from a small group of our fans, who finally shut up when several people told them too.

All clubs are going to have to police their fans better as the RFL have launched a new Textline service with each club having its own phone number for fans to phone with their experiences at games. These should be displayed clearly at all the grounds. Didn't see it advertised at Batley though.

Not too bad a match report - the one in League Express is far more biased! Anyway at least they do put a match report on their website. Why don't we? :?: It would be good able to read a Leigh biased report for a change when the referee has obviously arrived on the visitors coach. And talking of refs. Ganson made some very dubious decisions both ways again yesterday. Also the winger didn't tackle high before he was sent off - he took a deliberate swing with his fist. It was in front of us. :twisted:

Our reporter - Dave Parkinson - doesn't do 'biased' though!

Please do not send me any PM's I dont check this board often enough to be able to answer them, use my e mail add please fjparkinson@virginmedia.com




All posts on this message board by me are mine I am NOT a representative in any way shape or form of ANY Rugby League club.

Mennel did appear off balance BUT what will go against him was that it appeared as if the fist was clenched when contact was made, it is online if people know where to look ;).

And your right Alan he doesn't :).
