It's been a [uvery[/u long time since I watched a match at Twist Lane. I have read someone speculating that it's something to do with not kicking to touch for penalties on the canal side. Is there anything in that? And even so, this can't be the first CC match when the Miners have been at home, so why would this suddenly be a problem now?

It's true you can't but that's always been the case, don't know how much a big net is, like the one behind the goal at the car park end, to stop that but it's costing £3,000 to play at LSV & a net would fix that for good. I heard it was to do with dugouts being on opposite sides & too close to the pitch for the 4th official (which Miners have claimed they can fix & is fine for NCL games, all previous Challenge Cup games & when League 1 clubs, including Oxford, play Leigh Centurions reserves there) & changing rooms (can't be any worse than the portacabins at Owlerton & again are good enough for Oxford when they play Leigh Centurions reserves).

Dug outs are on opposite sides at Wath Brow and they were allowed to play at home against Newcastle in the last round. They also don't kick for touch for penalties at WBH

Miners have won 32-6

Well played Miners great win and a great game to watch

Well done Miners great win.

Well done to the Miners...hope we get them in the next round!

A cracking win for Miners, Hope they get a good draw in the next round to recoup some of the money.

Fantastic sight our players cheering the Miners on some of the Yorkshire lads there too

A fantastic win for the Miners. What a great result. Well done to them all

Excellent win for Miners, were the better team, the scoreline reflects the quality of both sides. Could have beaten Oxford playing anywhere. Hope for Leigh V Leigh in the next round, probabaly make the most Money for Miners. Although with news of Salford making a loss every home game if Miners draw Salford they'll probably want to play it at Twist Ln!

Thanks to The Miners they have given permission for the game to be put on LC TV,

It is on there now.
