47035_1386433761.gif We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

| Quote: Gallanteer "Slow down a little here. If Leigh don't concentrate and Batley and Leeds beat them, mathematically 2 other teams could finish with 10 points as well.
All very doubtful, but they shouldn't be complacent.
I'm not stating they don't deserve it, but this is a little like celebrating a winning try on the way towards the line. Sometimes they knock it on.'"
Mathematically both Leigh and Leeds are up.
Impossible for them to finish any worse than 3rd.

| If they embarrass themselves half as much as Bradford & that dreadful Welsh Crusaders club ended up doing they'll have had their worst season in history.
Get over yourself Headhunter. The script clearly hasn't gone to your prescribed path of how the game should be mapped out. Nevermind - it's just something else for you to bleat on about for another 12 months.

3rd 4th best stadium...lol.
Hull, Leeds, Hudds, Saints, Catalans, wire, Wigan, Widnes all better. On a par with Salford.

| Leigh have a nice stadium and already have a team that could probably get into the top 8 with a few additions. They will definitely add to super league, they've not been in the competition for over a decade so it will be nice to have a fresh team in.
Most importantly, it's all on merit. They've outplayed and beaten all SL opposition so far and now Hull kr, Salford or Huddersfield will experience the full wrath of sports natural selection.
I think it would be funny if Huddersfield go down.

| Well done Leigh. I said you would do it a couple of weeks ago without playing in the MPG.
Looking forward to seeing you at the Jungle and going over to the LSV. Last time I was there in 2014 Tigers Vs Widnes in the CC semi final. Great ground.
Welcome to Super League.

Rangi Chase:
300+ NRL and SL games, Man of Steel, record number of SL try assists, NZ Maori and England international.
Josh Drinkwater:
5 NRL appearances, 24 SL appearances in a team who won one game all year.
Rangi made a bad decision to join a club that turned into a circus. Now he is at a stable club, he is starting to show the signs of being the quality player he can be.
However to suggest Drinkwater is better than Chase (at the moment) is stretching reality. Hopefull, we'll get to see them both in SL next year (if we keep Rangi).
PS - he didn't walk straight into our team. We signed him because Ben Roberts is out for the rest of the year, he didn't get selected straight away and our other options at 6 were a prop and a hooker.

| Quote: nottinghamtiger "Rangi Chase
No doubt Rangi can be an awesome player , but as you saw the other night , he can still do the daft stuff , we didn't see much of him at Leigh , so maybe for you he is a good fit , just not anywhere else
Past records will be different given their ages , Josh has just turned 24 and is just getting better and better week on week , will he struggle next year in SL ? , who knows but with a completely different set up and ' feel ' to his time at London ( doubt anybody would have shone for them that year ) he will get his chance
All the best see you next year

Obviously depends on how we go , a fan base built on 3 seasons of constant winning will include a fair proportion of ' Glory fans ' , a reality check will be needed by many , increases in supporting the team financially both home and away will erode some
How competitive we are will also affect how many opposition fans visit us , so I'd hope we can achieve yesterdays attendance as an average
