The Fairhurst you remember is Alan, not Jimmy. Alan came from leigh and played for Borough from 77-79, very creative little player witha great kicking game, and like Turley, Diabira et al, was a bugger for the drop goal.

Can't remember how many Turley kicked during the 78/9 season, but as a team it was 26, exactly one a game. The one mad scoresheet that sticks in my mind was the game at Keighley, 14-13 to Borough.

Keighley oustcored us 3 tries to 1, but we put over 5 drop goals and 3 goals to go with our one try; 4 of them came in the first half, giving us a 4-3 half time lead.

It was all part of Fearnley's model, don't come away from their 20 without a point; the days of repeats sets were a long way off, this was a different game in so many ways.

Borough Legend! Another Leigh lad who played in the 76/7 JPT run to the final. A stand off who ran like he was 40 and looked 50, but read the game like a chess grand master.

Little baldy chap with a 'tash played scrum half or stand off.

I remember playing against him in later years, Seagull.

Remember that team at ICI Thornton - he played for them along with Graham Pitman.

That's Ged Marsh not me if anyone is confused!
