Todays game wont be for the fainthearted ,aWar of the roses ,Charlie spent last night relaxing in the Grovenor Casino in Blackpool of course

and won a few shillings ,I met a fellow Leyther there who asked me about the Caroli at Rourkes Drift

I told him there was Carolis at the Alamo , Little Big Horn , the Somme ,and Battle of the Bulge ,he said the Carolis must be from a Military background

I said NO , they like Trouble













Anyway see you all later ,and remember ,a Dream NEVER ends ,I think it was Rip Van Winkel who said this

.

Yes, fantastic result for The Shaymen yesterday. Hoping for a double today myself!

Hudd-Shay knows!icon_wink.gif

Well we turned up for 39 minutes and as Andrew Voss has stated, pushed off to the 3 Pigs at half to celebrate a great victory.



That second half does rank with some of the dumbest rugby I can remember seeing.



Truly awful, and not a brain cell in sight.

Charlie knew



.

This is what the players need to understand. They may be battered and bruised but it's the fans that have to put up with people like Charlie, coming on here and looking pretty damn smug.



The pain. Oh, the pain.

Rich my friend , nowt to do with being Smug , what annoyed me early on was the Crowing of Fax Fans with Score at 24- 0 , trying to and succeeding to wind up Sam Barlow , even the guy in your Dug out had a go , and Fieldmouses waving gestures were not needed .Fax had set out to wind Leigh up , it was reported as such before the Game in the Sponsers Lounge . It was a pity I couldn't see you before the game , I didn't even Halifaxjohn , maybe he was hiding , travel to the LSV in June for a drink with a happy Clown .

Well, maybe it's a lesson we have to learn, although Sam Barlow has to be THE thickest plank ever to grace a rugby pitch. He will put on many more performances down the line and I still warrant that he will be a bigger disruption to Leigh than an asset. Yesterday his 10 minute "man of the match" spell paid off because our players/coach were even dumber.

Cmon John , im worried about you , nothings been heard from you since yesterday , the search parties are forming

.And no show from you in the 3Pigeons yesterday .

Charlie tried to make it but my record time in the London Marathon held me back.

Time? 36 hours and 37 pubs.

Glad to hear your OK , and good to see you are taking the beating in good heart , like a true sportsman you are

.As you said Sam was given a bit of stick I think he expected it , but it wasn't just him , ive watched the replays many times since , as for Actons sin binning , it was Emmitt at fault not Acton , so how KH can blame Acton is beyond me .In the first half you played us off the pitch , but we had no ball possesions or territory , in second half when Bob Beswick came on the game changed , still a cracker of a game , hope to see ya at the Wren for the return game .Have faith in Fax .

Charlie, I look on sport as I look on life, you win some you lose some, you have a good day you have a bad day,

But?

Sport is a game, as my late great Father in Law said "John, doesn't matter what the score is, you've still got to go to work on Monday"

Incidentally, spent the day today in Blackpool, when are they going to take the scaffolds of your Tower?

Had a drink in the bar opposite the funfair, pint of Stowfords press for me and half of Heinekin for Mrs Halifaxjohn, £6.23,

Must get Mrs Halifaxjohn to have a third of a pint?
