I don't understand how people decide they dislike an entire club based on a minority of idiots. In the case of Leigh, I think Beaumont come out with a load of crap on a regular basis, a minority of their fans are arrogant and disrespectful. That makes me dislike Beaumont and a few of their fans not the entire club, it's players and supporters. All clubs have individuals associated with them who I think are idiots but I'm sensible enough not to stereotype the whole club because of it.

All I know is that whenever I see a thread about Leigh, reading the comments is like stepping back in time to RLFans in 2002.

I like watching Leigh, they throw it around and play with a bit of needle.
I like their fans, always got on with them and our shared opinion of Wigan goes down well.
Love their stadium
Liked Rowley when he was in charge.

But Beaumont is just an obnoxious, condescending, arrogant, fat sh*th**se

That's been Huddersfields business model ever since Sheffield saved them from relegation

Are Leigh disliked or did a few of their fans start up this weird "everyone's against us" campaign on here and in other social media on the back of the Gareth Hock signing and a couple of handbag fights and cheap shots against Featherstone when they were questioned by a few people? On every fifth thread for a couple of weeks on this site you'd see a Leigh fan (seemingly about the same half dozen) popping up where they hadn't been seen before saying "why do you hate Leigh?"...then it carries on this season. Bizarre! They've made it all up themselves and are carrying it on.

I feel sorry for the normal Leigh fans a lot of whom seemed decent at Wire last season when they came in the CCup. Yes they got a bit giddy when they were in the lead against the worst Wire side for six years singing "are you watching Super League?!" and then got easily beaten, but they were behind their team really well all game and were no bother outside the ground before or after that day.

But...does anyone really hate Leigh at all? or is it just a fabrication to get the Super League fans talking about them more?

Shows how little you know.

Huddersfields business model has been to rely on Ken Davy.

Away fans stopped coming in any numbers about 5 years ago when we stopped being a guaranteed two points for them.
