| Apparently .....
[iOnly 134 seats remaining [/i in the South Stand (yours)
250 in North Stand terrace (ours) will be gone today.
East stand will be opened, a rarity & I can only remember the RL Internationals of Engand/France & Samoa & Elton John requiring East Stand open. Probably Wigan & maybe Wire at home to be the only other fixtures requiring the East Stand to be used this season.
Hope the RL Fans & Leigh RLFC make you feel welcome, should be a good night.
Stay safe.

There's no need to look for sticks to beat anyone you stated that Badwinson hadn't done enough to warrant selection this week its there in black & white so answer the question how is he supposed to when only given 5 minutes?.
Wrt having a reserve HB we have one in Lilley but yer hero sent him on loan for a month & left us last week with Moon & Sutty at HB another great Coaching tactic no?'"
Most of your posts come with a "here we go again" warning by just moaning at the coach and have become repetitive and boring. You make the same point over and over again like an obsession. I bet sitting next to you on match day will be like sitting next to Victor Meldrew.
I repeat Baldwinson hasn't done enough yet to replace those above him in the prop pecking order because last week was only the first match. This is not a criticism of him but of you for complaining about selection even before the first match. Last week against a big Saints pack and bench our forwards did well on defense and for effort and fitness. Even on attack they got us in position we should have scored from so I very much doubt if playing Baldwinson or Mullally for longer would have made any difference to the result. It was the inadequacies of our playmakers that cost us a win and in particular your friend's son Sutcliffe who fluffed the most chances in their red zone.

| Quote: BrisbaneRhino "The point is no forward should be on the bench who the coach isn't willing to give big minutes to - even before anyone gets injured. Playing with a less than full bench rotation of forwards is looney tunes unless you have a pack full of Graham/Peacock types who can all play long stints. If this were a solitary case then we could argue that BM was trying to ease a young player into the team. In reality he has done this on and off over his whole tenure, and it is dumb coaching.'"
Most coaches will want to have their senior players on the field for the longest time and unless these either become injured so need a short rest then why replace them unless your bench is as strong as first selections.At the start of this season we have an experience prop out long term injured so that will give chances for Mullally and the youngsters to gain experience. But that doesn't mean they are yet up to replacing a first choice prop for long minutes.
IMO one of the reasons our game has gone backwards is the use of props that can only do 20 minute shifts. The sooner we get back to props that can go most or all of the game the better. In Union the props cannot be reintroduced, unless for serious injury, and the result is very large fit men doing long minutes which in their case involves proper scrummaging and lifting in the lineouts in addition to ball carrying and physical work in rucks mauls and tackles.
If you think BM's whole tenure which has brought him record coaching records is dumb then you would have to say it works overall.

Don't know. You are our first visitors this season. I would imagine fans of Wigan, Saints (next week) and Warrington, will pay the same as you guys.

How would you know what im like on match days when you are stuck in spain assessing performances via radio & spreadsheets?
Wrt "moaning" more assumption you pathetic hypocrite you are perfectly happy to "claim" some sort of Coaching knowledge yet single out 1 player for blame whilst ignoring the snr HB & a Coaches failure to gave any kind of back up plan or even a plan A.
Tell me uber Coach how many optional/dummy runners or set moves did either HB have in their 20m?
Also stop making this about "complaining" & answer the original question?
Finally my posts are opinions whether positive negative or indifferent & the Team get my full support from the terraces so don't assume anything you know f'all about.

But that is just rubbish Juan. We had this last week before the Saints game. He has done more than anyone else in preseason to earn that shot, so just ridiculous for someone on the outside to say he hasn't done enough this week, just to defend the coach for not picking him.

I'd prefer to understand the thinking behind it before dismissing it as dumb coaching.

The club, Leigh, were upfront on ticket prices which apply to all not just away £25 seating and £22 standing with a £2 discount for the visits of Widnes, Cas, Wakey, Catalans, Huddersfield and Salford. All stands have roofs, bars/catering, excellent toilets with bog roll, hot water, soaps and hot air dryers, and there are over 1000 free car parking spots on site.
Those who come will have a great night with what's going on inside and outside, those who don't were never going to come anyway - same as our lot who wont go to Headingley to pay £20 to stand on a dilapidated terrace open to the elements or £32 to have a seat in a modern stand.
Personally would it matter to me if I paid £23 or £25 to watch a game in comfort with great facilities - NO but each to their own, but FFS don't hide behind £2.

As a (Very) OAP, I need to sit at Rugby League matches so I personally am very thankful of ultra modern stadia such as Leigh's
When I come to Leeds for the Leigh return match, I believe my companion will not be able to get a seat in the away supporters seating area for less than £28 ?
Is this therefore the most expensive away seating pricing structure in Super League?

Leigh opened it for the opening fixture of the 2015 championship vs Bradford Bulls - Attendance close to 8,000. And yes a warm Leyth welcome awaits to all our friends from Leeds. Enjpy the game.
