First 30 minutes though we had thrown it away but then started to get down to business sat in bar in lindos Greece good job they don't have yellow vans here or I would have been carried away need to find a quiet little bar somewhere with sky next Saturday well done lad's wish I could be there next week biggest party for a long time if we win

Cheers Biff.

I wasn't there today (working until 1.55 pm in Culcheth so no bloody chance) , saw a few familiar faces on the terrace.

Booked a days leave to come over to Headingley & hopefully by then both Leeds & Leigh will be home & hosed, then we can all just have 'a jolly good knees up' & a bit of RL might break out also.

Riddy and Higham certainly seemed to enjoy that one! As good as some of our imports have been you can't beat seeing home town lads giving their all for the club.

Some clown got rid of the like button Nozzy so I will just have to do this ......

I'll let you off tonight, Nozzy, as I am super-lunar. Just remember where you heard it first (about half five - live from our correspondent in Salford:

Anyone notice that in the Virtual Terrace apart from a Bulls fan on the Salford thread no one has given this game any credit ?

Seems like if you're not in Super 8's you're not in Rugby League with that lot.

Got to say also that despite our rivalry, Bradford Bulls fans have been superb in supporting the endeavours of Leigh & are often the first out of the blocks with congratulations.

While it ain't over 'till the fat lass down Ruebens sings' a win over Giants at home & Batley sees this fantastic Leigh Club achieve the dream.

& for the generally fantastic support of the Bradford Bulls fans *& the fact that they have a great, solid & large fan base* I hope they too can get back to SL very soon.

Well done Leigh & Leigh fans, see you in the North Stand next Saturday.

Agree STe the SL will be a better place with Leigh and Bulls in and the away support should be welcomed by all other clubs, seen comments about Leigh's return not welcome with Sky for not being expansive but i,m sure the TVs viewer likes to see and hear a noisy crowd. If we beat Batley and Leeds beat all our competitors we are up. Salford are surely doomed just because they shouldn't be there.

Massive congratulations to Leigh today, you were the better side.

Hope you get promoted, you certainly deserve it.

Pukka Pie or Dawsons…?

Don't blame me Ste.

Rooting for you guys. Almost there.

Obviously I'd rather see Bradford in your position but nobody can deny that you don't deserve it. Keep going and avoid that MPG.

All the best and good luck.

Well done Leigh, keep it going.

A great result and hopefully you'll get the reward you deserve. And from our point of view, if you've pushed our nearest and dearest closer to the trapdoor then we're even happier. Well done!!!

Genuinely pleased for Leigh RLFC and it's great supporters.



Don't blow it now!

Why would you want Rovers relegated? Do you not like the derby?
I wouldn't want Wakefield relegated as i enjoy both fixtures and only missed Magic this year and went to Benidorm instead as we had Wire not Wakey.
I also have to say well done to Leigh and if you manage to get promoted it is deserved and i hope it is Salford who drop out.

Well done Leigh from a Bulls fan

I guess with you guys going up the RFL will think this ludicrous system is a cracking idea and keep it going which will probably not be good for us. We started the season as rivals but only for a few games till we badly fell away, all credit to you guys. I wonder who will be joining us next season instead of you

And a special mention for Derek, well done

I'm sure the RFL will be patting each other on the back at the marvellous system that they've created totally ignoring the mullerings that the other championship club have been receiving, both this year and last.

Well done Leigh from a Vikings fan.

Well done Leigh from this Bulls fan, fully deserved. Still think the system is wrong and top spot should gain automatic promo. which would have seen you up anyway. Keep it going, the finishing post is in sight.

Has anybody heard from Honest Joe?

Being the huge Leigh fan that he is I am sure he will be on here soon enjoying yesterdays win with the rest of us.

After a season with just 1 loss since February here are a few of Positive Joe's highlights.



















Still, I am sure he will be on soon to give a bit of praise to the team and Jukesy!

Especially since he stated:



I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he is still in bed after a late night celebrating a great victory for the Leythers!

Very good, Nozzy. It wasn't the fifteen pints that made him ill it was that damned humble pie. All I can say is that he doesn't change his opinion until next Saturday night!

A few stats from the HKR game.

Top tackler Danny Tickle (again!) with 46 tackles with zero missed tackles.

Just behind him was Cory Paterson with 42 tackles and zero missed tackles.

Paterson also 2nd in meters made with 129m.

But Hansen stole the show.

24 tackles, zero misses, top meter maker with 148m. Zero penalties, zero errors and best of all a ridiculous SIX tackle busts!

Salford must have been mental letting Hansen go, the guy is a machine!

BaB, I think folk are being a bit harsh on Honest Joe, I think he was only saying what he thinks and believes, we are all entitled to our opinions, whatever happened I think Joe is a Leigh fan who only wants Leigh to win as we all do.
Myself I missed yesterday's great win due to a Caroli family holiday, but I did see the game on Sky, it's been a great week end, a Leigh win, a few quid won on the Horses at Haydock and Ascot,Ribby Hall is a Class place to be,and hopefully tonight win a few shillings on the Roulette at the Grosvenor Casino.Lastly well done Leigh Centurions.

Hansen was superb yesterday. Absolutely monstered the KR players in every tackle he made. He made a big difference when he came on.

Tickle is impressing me more every game. Gets through a load of work and never stops. Turning out to be a very good signing
