To be fair, that’s why we all think Roy, Terry and Budgie are one of the same. They struggle with English. Anyway back on topic how did Leigh get on today against a club that only has 7 players lol

And I will continue to enjoy your decades of miserable underperformance and complete failure to produce even a poor attendance figure, while simply making up the numbers as a token club. Looks like everyone is happy for once.

| Quote: King Street Cat "Just when did wishing other clubs would disappear become fashionable in rugby league? Does it happen in other sports? Do Chelsea fans rub their hands together at the thought of Arsenal going bust? Do Yorkshire Cricket fans pray for the day that Lancashire can't put a side out and have to forfeit their season?
Some fans won't be happy until it's a four team league with Saints, Bradford, Toronto and Toulouse playing each other week in week out for the whole season. It's just downright bizarre, and there are plenty of cheerleaders of this weird behaviour on the VT.'"
Well said KSC. ![CLAP eusa_clap.gif](images/smilies//eusa_clap.gif)

I used to think you were a decent fella, you liked your stats, and I find some of your posts interesting and amusing.
But you have let yourself down BIG STYLE with the above comment.
Who knows what the future holds for my club, we may struggle for years to come, but wishing that 'we fold' is quite simply pathetic.

| I take no delight in seeing ANY rugby league club folding whether they be old or new. Local rivals or not. Banter against losing games, trophies yes but going out of business? FFS!!!
I remember Bradford completely filling our North Stand in the late 90’s/early 00’s. What I would do to see that again!
I thought we were all proud to be part of a “RL Family” jeez....!!

| Wow, what a thread this is.
Leigh, Widnes and London (and Fev, Bradford and the rest) all deserve a place in this competition (whether SL or below) because they've earned a place. Fax played Salford today, we got stuffed, no arguments, but we'd earned the right to play them on the pitch. FWIW, the south stand at the Shay was rockin' at the start of the game with both Salford and Fax fans trying to out-sing each other. For those that say we don't want away fans, this was an example of exactly why we do want them - some decent atmosphere and friendly rivalry on the terraces.

He's just lucky that while our club had a rich fool, his has a richer fool. Still, I think, pound for pound, Beaumont has had a lot more for his money than Hughes has, or ever will have. And Leigh will have more watching them on the local park than London will, whatever league either end up in.

Salford, despite their low home gates, always have a decent away following. Around 800 of them at Halifax today....

The rugby league family is an absolute myth. Everybody loves the idea of it but the snarls, bitterness and envy always come to the forefront.

Unless a new owner cometh Mr Fake Canuck, you're a L1 club. Enjoy the trip to Hemel and Llanelli...

It's (sadly) human nature to be selfish, insecure, greedy, envious, jealous..... Read the 10 Commandments....

Two expansion clubs, not to mention Newcastle, Crusaders and Skolars - are you implying I shouldn't enjoy that? They are the future of the game after all, aren't they? And their crowds are just a few hundred short of London, so I am really not sure of the difference TBH.
As for being a fake Canadian, I am a dual citizen and have been a member of this forum for 16 years, with that avatar for almost as long as many users could testify. A decade before RL was even restarted in Canada and very likely before you were born.
