Just watched it again, I had forgot how good this is.

Goosebumps and shivers throughout, the odd tear and lump in the throat, all set to an apt and fantastically chosen song.

Never Forget

Cheers Mishmash

Very sad to watch, especially as this ground was still better than some SL grounds

Tongue in cheek there I think. KC stadium is probably the best in any division. Ours is probably too small to compare with the modern stadi like the Galpharm and the Pie Dome.






On a crusade to return Leigh Centurions to their traditional colours of Cherry & White.

Ah but (tongue in cheek) I dont class them as SL grounds but football grounds. And I am totaly biased because its in Leigh. As my accountant Peter says "it's Lancashire hidden gem".

I wouldn't say better than any, but I'd say better than most. LSV, in my opinion, is better than :-

Bradford, Castleford, Catalans, Celtic, Hull KR, Leeds, Saints, Salford, Wakefield!

So 9 out of 14 ain't too bad! I'd say LSV is on a par with others! It's definately SL standard!

As a Leyther, you’re one of us the moment you come here to wear the shirt. I don't care where you were born, what colour you are, what religion you are, what language you speak. You're one of us, part of our culture, writing our history as you create your own, and making us stronger for it....

Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.
