What's coming forth compered to impoverishment?
Charlie Knows.

I presume by King Kev you refer to Larroyer..?He was hardly dumped, as I understood it when Leigh didn’t make the top5 from the previous season Derek let a fair few players go to other Clubs or stay on reduced contracts ,Larroyer, Evans , and another player whose name I can’t think of refused both options and threatened court action, it was sensibly avoided when Larroyer signed for Fax , Evans went to Bradford I still can’t think of the other guy.
Derek however regained his appetite for Leigh because nobody was interested in buying his shares,at the end of last season he put a few pounds in to try to win the play offs including signing Kevin Brown, but it failed.
This season Derek has kept a low profile , let Duffy get on with the job ,and it’s paying dividends, I do predict we may enter the transfer market again IF we get into the top 5.I do hope this helps, as for myself?Hardly close season silence, I just don’t see Fax as one of our competitors for a top 5 spot this season.However you never know after your York victory.Im hoping for a good game , but after seeing our Squad it seems a very strong 17 will turn out..
I will be at the Shay for the return fixture.And I’m very disappointed in Hudd Shays stance on a Fax boycott.Cmon Pete don’t give up.[/quote]
It is in no way a Fax boycott Ian, I'm just getting more and more disillusioned with the game as a whole. There's hardly a week goes by without summat else daft rearing it's ugly head. Aye, I'm not happy with what's going on at Fax but we've a wedding in Mexico in't Summer so we'll pick and chose matches to go to and hopefully the game in general comes to it's senses before it's too late.

Touched on before by Bentleyman and others Hudds the game will see some big changes, the Champ and Champ 1 clubs met just a couple of weeks back to start preliminary discussions.

Now moved to new thread, "big changes coming", keeps us occupied.

Fax more than capable of winning this one, but I think (we) Leigh will be victorious by 12 points.

Think that's a little harsh on some of those that you mentioned. Especially for Gilmore, Morris and Barber. Think Gilmore has had terrible luck with injuries. I think he is more than a competent halfback, Morris is one of those players that will get dismissed purely on his size but he consistently makes good meters and Barber for me is a very talented back-rower, good hands, his problem for me is his weight and fitness. Leigh is a good a team but they are not the team of recent years where they tonked everyone in the super 8's. They have good players but certainly beatable.

To those of you trekking over to our side of the hill, have a safe journey, but not too enjoyable afternoon.

Likewise, I love my trips to the Shay. A lovely stadium with a great atmosphere - even when we have had some hammerings there!
