If we are seen as a club that helps to develop good young players, then the future is bright.

If we bring through players and win everything we will be in SL end of. No one on this planet could refuse us entry if we do this.

It's not just the future of our club I worry about it's the game in general because the hierarchy of the game are strangling it from our league down and sooner or later we'll all be out of business because we can't attract businesses to invest because of the 3 year time lag with no guarantee of promotion.

The game is being run in a ludicrous fashion to benefit the few while the majority slowly perish and the sooner these blinkered pillocks at the top of the game realise that the better for everyone involved.






..... and I'll be standing in the Hilton Park stand, yes that's right I've named the North Stand myself

Tony do you honestly believe the rfl would let us in if our main finances came from LISA the lottery and the CC,regardless of the fact we'd earned the right to go up.?

John do you really think we would be in financial trouble if we were winning everything with home grown tallent and had the nailed on chance of being in SL. With what we have at Leigh we would have sugar daddys queing up. Watch what happens at Salford next year. They will move into a new ground on the back of a rubbish season but they will still get good investment. Luck and good management and it could happen to us.

But we won't be winning everything with home grown talent , how much of our current team is home grown ?

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Hilly will be dual registered next season, so it will not be all doom and gloom.

Wire have tracked him for some time. As a result, I can see some very promising Wire youngsters playing for us next season.

Season long loan then?

Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.



[b]Littlerich wrote[/b] Widnes will be glad to get away from Leigh. They've been regularly pumped, roasted and left in the alley-way by the lobbygobblers. Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.
