Anyway Sheffield fans should be welcomed everywhere they are rarer than a DoDo

Looks like the dek and doc are pals again, and doc is have a few before the game and is on the look out for a bowl of lobby

I fully Concur with you Mr Butcher it's pure Coronation St this ,Charlie is predicting a Leythers win by 8 ,Hock will play as will Fui,and after the game Doc and Dec will have an arm wrestle.Charlie knows.

A Charlie knows nothing!
Salford will win
Lou knows!

Remember when Saints took Southy on loan?

Is that all you can say?Charlie knows many things

if the wind blows to the right then lean to the left.

Nothing like the joy of dialectic discussion, the rapier-like wit as views are explained, and the testing of intellect and comprehension.

I like your optimism.

I can't see anything but a Salford win, regardless of who plays. I think in the past, even the recent past, this would have been a real banana skin for us. I think we have come a long way in a short time mentally and the team simply wont take the game lightly. I think Leigh will play well, and their stand-out players will also do well, but I can't see anything but a Salford win.

If Leigh do win, it will be on merit and I will congratulate them as victors.

Charlie old clown - The Bookies don`t share your optimism.

Leigh are 5/2 to win yet Salford are 1/3.

On the Handicaps Ladbrokes go Leigh PLUS 10 1/2 @ 4/5.

I think you should put your red nose, bowler & walking stick on that, sell your memorabilia of the real Charlie on Ebay & put that on then finally your caravan wheels as well - at least then you will have a static caravan if all goes pear shaped..

Looks a great bet for all us Devils fans who want Salford to win and have solace if we win by less than 10. Think its generous - I would have thought 6 was more the mark.

You can gat 12, 10-12 is about right but if one team doesn't show it will be an upset or a blow out

Thought it was a bit stingy myself. Would've expected something like 12-16 start.

Personally, hope Leigh just put in a decent performance in front of a good crowd who'd be encouraged to come back. As for the Hock saga, I'm looking forward to the circus leaving town and getting back to the league fixtures!

As you know EB I do like a bet and in my local Ladbrokes this morning I was told Leigh were placed with 12 start I'm very tempted to have a few shillings on this.
As for me being an optimist most Leythers think I'm a pessimist but I would never wager my precious Bowler Hat and red nose, I agree Salford must be favorites but we are a full time team now and I'm very hopeful , should be a great game, apparently the Good Doc has promised an appearance in the North Stand

may the best team win.

Mr Butcher ,I've never been described as an optimist

and agree Salford must be favorites to win,I can see you are wary of the Leythers,should be a great game the Cup is a bonus for Leigh ,we want to finish top and will respect Salford ,I hope it lives up to its expectation.
