So which is it ?

Birstalltiger wrote:It does stink but it is getting better we lost player like Rob Burrow Gaz Ellis young Briscoe at hull but we trying to sign the best youngsters about. We have signed 7 from Airdale high who have not lost match for 3 years and our club junior rugby there is some like 10 diffrent teams in Cas that why there not qiute as strong at that leval.

Starbug wrote:So you admit it isn't as good as it could be despite you being in SL for 13 of the last 15 seasons and you point out that the school RL is stronger in Cas than club RL

That might be down to certain schools concentrating more on sport and RL in general than others

So well done

So maybe the club RL in Leigh is stronger than school RL

Starbug wrote:Today Leigh East and Leigh Miners u 18 s played out the final of the Barla youth cup at the Willows , Salford

34 of Leighs finest young men put on an exciting tension filled display of RL

A scoreline of 2 - 0 to East at H/T and then an 80 minutes score of 8 - 8 resulted in 20 minutes of extra time

2 Further scores put East in the driving seat until Miners came back to score with 2 minutes left to set up a last chance to even things up

East kept the Miners out to record an 18 - 12 win

WTF has the good youth work done by Miners and East got to do with a) your failed SL franchise bid or b) your personal vendetta against Red Hall and Richard Lewis in particular?
