Haven 30- Leigh 34
Cup semi-final
June 27 2004
Haven opened scoring with
a penalty and the home side made a promising start but soon Leigh
scored against the run of play and Phil's son David Larder scored.
He took the opportunist opening after a headbutt on a Haven player
that the ref failed to notice.
That man Turley converted. Turley then scored two tries and converted
in the stiff breeze.(2-18)
Jamie Marshall then
had a wonderful gifted ball from a Leigh mis-pass. He legged
it with the Leigh pack baying at his heels. Nanyn converted ((8-18)
A smooth pass from
Joe set up Wes to see Haven fight back.
Danny Halliwell responded for the visitors to leave it 14-22.After
the turn around Haven fought back and Jamie Marshall again showed
pace to score making it 18-24. Tensions rose as Damian Munroe
replied making it a nail biting 20-28. Sice had a great chance
but Leroy Joe was unable to take the off-load. But soon after
the pressure paid off and Sam Obst , who deserved his Man of
the Match spurs broke through to score (pictured). Nanyn converted
and this plus penalty left it a hung 28-28. A lucky award of
penalty gave us the narrowest lead at 30-28 but then Mr Martin
went over after slipping the Haven defences.Attendance was 2049
and the big draw winner was Mrs Karen Atkinson netting £10,000.
