kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39110.jpg



Although I do not agree with how just this is, I think it's a good move as the franchise system will only work if their is real competition for places in super league, clubs will not feel the need to develop in some areas if there are not many other teams knocking on the door.

No , unless an existing other SL club at that time had imploded financially , which is the case for us icon_wink.gif

Anyone who does not think this is a good thing must be losing it.
Leigh were unjustly relegated in the name of expansionism ie Toulouse and how fitting it is that the unsustainablity of another expansion team has given them the chance to return to their rightful place.

Leigh – like us in 2006 and Widnes in 2005 – were justly facing relegation for finishing in a relegation spot: a relegation spot that they (like us in 2006 and Widnes in 2005) knew about when they entered the competition and agreed to by entering it.

They've now avoided relegation because, it would appear, another club has been docked points and, albeit retrospectively, finished in that relegation spot.

Just a pity Wigan's points deduction for cheating in 2006 came the following year icon_wink.gif

Those docked points only come into play next year, Gateshead will start on -6

Incorrect , the Gateshead club have requested to re start in Championship 1 , and the RFL have agreed to let them , they could have left the Championship with 10 teams and had 11 in Championship 1 , but they decided to retain the same structure as last season and invited Leigh to make up the numbers , we were happy to oblige
