Fax Fans at Final : Mon Jul 11, 2011 6:11 pm  

Guys

As I'm sure you can imagine given recent incidents starting with the Grand Final last seasonwith the horrible incident involving Dave Singer, and more recently our away game at Featherstone this season, the RFL are currently holding an enquiry into how the trouble started at Featherstone.

So they will be keeping a close watch on both sets of fans' behaviour this weekend.

We are encouraged by the good rapport between Fax and Leigh fans on these forums currently, BUT;

Can everyone who goes to the final to support Fax make sure that we act as the great fans that the rugby league as a whole know we are;

Dont lets have swearing, rude songs, too much to drink, lets keep off the pitch at the end of the game (its a soccer ground and the penalties for going on the ground are harsher than rugby grounds), win or lose lets enjoy ourselves and lets show Sky and the rest of the RFL just how to behave at important games.

Have a really great day out and lets hope that its a winning one too, everyone at the Club will be doing our best to make sure it is.

You can help the lads with support like we had at Barrow this weekend, and by turning up in something Blue and White!

see you all Sunday
Cheers
Mike R

There will be no trouble with the Leythers.
Will be a good craic and a good old fashioned RL match of above Championship quality.
Some on our board have already mentioned 'tick and pass' before the match. Seems like a good plan !!!

Have a corker folks, and may the best team win !

I have already been in touch with LISA about this very thing Mike and they are also going to have their bus marshalls mention it to there fans . Like me she doesn`t think there will be any trouble but all we are saying is lets be extra specialy careful and have a good day out.
The Leighers are meeting on the beach by Central Pier to have their photo taken I think they may allow a few Fax fans there as well , it would make a good picture for us all.
