Comparing Leigh and their big city neighbors is a bit like comparing Cas Tigers with Wakefield Wildcats - just the other way round. |

| Quote: jakeyg95 "Yeah, fair play to them getting promoted and everything but I think a few of them are completely deluded if they think they offer anything different to Super League. At the end of the day, they've had one season in the top flight in the last 20 years for a reason. They're a small team with a small fan base based in a small town in Wigan. Hardly something that's gonna massively increase the profile of the sport. Super League would be much better off with either a well run expansion team or a Bradford side that isn't completely dysfunctional but hey ho. I say this as a Wakefield fan too and acknowledge that we don't really offer that much either (although fortunately for us someone appears to have cast some kind of spell that means we can never be relegated).'"
We are now with the likes of Widnes, Wakefield, Huddersfield, & Salford that will 'probably' not get a crowd over 5K without a decent away following, or maybe a MASSIVE game for the home team. As for we are 'based in Wigan' that is an untrue bitchy remark (are you French ?), which is uncalled for. Our ground is 3 miles nearer to Bolton Wanderers stadium, than the Piedome.... 
And what is there 'offering anything new' to Sooper Dooper League, why do we have to ? There was life before SL pal, and for a 100 years it did OK.....don't you think ? |

Is this the sort of attitude and discourse we can expect from Leigh posters next year? These boards should be even more fun...
On a different note, congrats on promotion. It'll be good to play a different side.

They're the (very) vocal minority. We're not all like that |

Come again? I've had my fall outs with a couple of folk on our forum, and I've argued against some comments made by fans of other clubs. I don't hide anything pal.
It's embarrassing when certain fans of ours post the things they do. Is that clear enough for you?

There's a chance they'll have bigger gates in 2017 than Leigh did this year, and a few SL clubs too.'"
They are led by a consortium of 10 but the majority of funding comes from one individual, before you play billy big balls try facts first you usually dont find them on google.... |

I like the leigh fans.
Before the super 8's they were coming on the leeds board billy big bollox with the attitude of ''we'll do everyone''.
Well so far they've done.....everyone! You can't argue with that.

Interesting. So why did you originally write
Is it one or ten? Some backtracking going on, you need to make your mind up.
Also, you state the majority is funded by one individual, there are actually two majority owners, Eric Perez and David Argyle, with 8 others holding 'minor' stakes. You're just chatting nonsense.
All this because someone dared highlight Beaumont's ownership of Leigh & the money he's put in. Some of you Leigh fans are a really touchy when it comes to the mention of Toulouse or Toronto? Same on the other thread. Weird. |
