Not sure I agree expansion of the grass roots takes 20 years. Close to home Sheffield are 36 years on with little expanded?
Doncaster is a soccer town and nothing's expanded there since RL turned up in 1952
Les Catalans are on year 14 and are more an English team than ever
London are 40 years young and have some player development
Workington have gone 73 years losing over 9,000 speccies and scores of amateur players in the process
The answer is stability and you get that best (not perfect even then) along the M62.............'"
I think you'll find London have a bit more than "some player developement", it's something Mr Hughes decided early on was important and has never abandoned, who knows, Covid may force him too, but I reckon if it was, he'd restart it again asap as it's clealy something he values.
"Jonah Verella, Josh Hodson, Will Blakemore, Rob Oakley and Jacob Jones have all signed first team contracts with the club and will join the first team set up for pre-season training in November.
The signing of these five players takes the home-grown element of the Broncos first team squad to around 70%, which is something Ward is immensely proud of."

That's great mate. I remember when LMS, Dixon and Clubb all appeared for Broncos and that was great. The 70% is fantastic too but that is across a Championship squad. That's fine if the club are competitive in the Championship, and even better if they got promoted and the London lads continued to hold their own in SL. Don't think Covid is going to force Mr. Hughes hand, vaccinations are ramping up etc etc.
Have a great season 2021.....

Not forgetting the likes of Sarginson, Dixon, McMeeken and Caton Brown. I’m sure there will be many more also.

Of course it does. Leigh are now 1/5000 to be automatically relegated straight back to the
Championship with that news

Bless, your post has really upset us Leigh fans.
Whoever got the vote to be allowed in SL are bound to find it tough aren't they ? Championship clubs have been recruiting for the championship season in 2021, so all Leigh (or London) could have done for that matter is add 3 or 4 players knowing that you will be competing in Super League this year.

It will be exciting to see if Leigh can hang in there.
Only five of the original 1996 SL clubs are still in Superleague, and plenty of clubs have gone up and survived on their own strengths, or conversely on the weaknesses of other clubs. Only recently Leigh got an 11th place when they were promoted, and London matched HKR for league points going down only on match points difference.
Every chance you'll be doing the upsetting!! Not sure how weak Leigh's recruitment has actually been, against say Wakey or HKR's squads and as we know it's about what happens on the pitch so if Leigh are in a determined mood and rivals aren't particularly motivated that can make all the difference.
