We ended up in the wrong Bramley travelled to the one near Rotherham asked at a petrol station where the ground was & they said you're in the wrong town it's the one near Leeds you want. The thing is we weren't the only ones to make the cock up as a few Leythers had been in earlier

Guilty as charged your honour!

How about this one then - My dad once got lost coming home from a game
Leigh were at Whitehaven and on his way home he came off the roundabout at Penrith one exit too early, finished up on the A66 and went all the way to Scotch Corner!!!

That's quite easily done as it's THE single most boring drive ever and it's easy to switch off.

Really? I quite like the drive to Whitehaven, stopping off at Tebay etc

That said, it's even better when someone else drives

We took the wrong turning once going to Post Office Rd, Featherstone. Unfortunately as we were flying our flags and obviously looked like we knew where we were going we were followed by two other cars full of Leythers. It was really embarrassing when after driving out into the countryside for a few miles we had to stop and do a 3-point turn only for the other two cars to have to do the same. We still see the men from one of the cars at matches and I still feel a bloody fool about it!

Always a lesson not to follow any Leythers

A few years ago, a lad didn't know the way back from Widnes (not much hope there!) and ended up following some Leythers home. Problem being that the home of these particular Leythers was in Stockport

Ahh the pitfalls of following somebody who looks like they know where they're going!
