I thought Basils Post-Match sum up was fair ,saying boths sides had about a 90%completion rate ,Nigel Wright was very magnanimous in defeat said it was probably Barrows best performance , i thought we missed Gov, but we will have to improve again to beat Fev ,still a wins a win and it must have been very hot out there ,CMON YOU LEYTHERS .

Mr Hewer kept Barrow in the game and should be hauled infront of the RFL for that performance. How can you give 5 penalties for high tackles without calling for the captain and telling him the next goes in the bin, and that was the ones he pulled up. There must have been another six blatant ones he let go. They were trying to pull TGs head off right in front of him and the buffoon running the line.He stopped us taking a tap when the players were clearly behind the 20mtr line. I know Andy Thornley had just crossed it but he was in Hewers peripheral vision. If you can't see that you shouldn't be reffing.
Our discipline at getting back for the play the ball is excellent, but Barrow were infront of him all the time and at some of the taps they had not got 5mtrs. Then he pulls us for not being square.

Totally agree about the ref,not once did he threaten to put someone in the bin and yes he gave 5 pens for the head shots but missed 2 that we all saw in west stand ,I thought that was the worst i've seen him ref

It was hot where we were with 'Basil' breathing fire down our necks

Barrow played well today and showed they have good players and looked a lot fitter than when we played them at their place.

Unrecognisable from when they "played" at Fev.

Our last try was so amazing I cannot wait for Fred to post his blip tv thing. Seven minutes left and they come up with that.

Older supporters need to take a viagra 10 minutes before the fast forwarding button and watch it. Orgasmic moment.

Thx for th coverage. The game kicked off at 4am my time so I didn't follow live but I did the next best thing when I got up by not checking the score but reading the updates in order. Well done to the lads. Close but they did what was needed.

Looks like RHP's Twitter is giving Leigh Updates a run for their money!

Me too. And they are right about the budgy creepers.

Meercats of Meeakovo am I wrong ?

They did enough to win. We got the lead early 2nd half and then we just held them at arms length. I am quite sure that Leigh could have upped the tempo anytime in the game and won by a bigger margin, but they are keeping fuel in the tank for Fev game.
They will beat Fev I have no doubts about it.
