Plus I am sure you will get used to Maurices posts ![]()
Hi D, no close about it on Sunday - we sold across our tills more than half and I know plenty who bought online and printed off from Wakey due to us selling out 3/4 times, plus the pay on day. 2500 travelled and if the rumour that this game will be Sat 2.30pm on BBC1 is correct I expect 4/5k to travel over
Also if this is a Sat/Sunday game I will be organising a sponsored walk from LSV to HJ in aid of Danny Jones's Family which will incorporate many pub stops - keep an eye out because I am sure a few Wire fans would do that with us.

| This game has all the hallmarks of being a Classic,as has been said it has everything ,hopefully with the added spice of Mickey Higham turning out for Leigh.  Myself I may arrive on a Blackpool Donkey,of course I would ride on Maurices back if need be.I have not forgiven my daughter Dani for moving to Warrington,she now even works there , though she tells me she's still a Leyther .For wise the Wolves should win comfortably ,BUT you never know,we are now full time and have a very strong pack,and a few talented backs, a good crowd will of course attend ,the Mighty Leythers arriving in their hordes,I can't wait,the HJ will be rocking.Charlie knows.  |

you needed to pay 50k to tell you we charge kicks down and can't defend on our own line? I could have got you in on a friend for a fiver ticket to let you find that out.

That will mean fluff all come game time. Teams spend a lot of time watching other teams for their tactics.
In the end the game will come down to fitness and the forward pack imo.

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg |

In theory we should be as fit as any other FT team. Salford and Wakey found that out.

| Quote: Winslade's Offload "It should be a spicy affair and surely will attract a big crowd ? Previous years cc matches against Championship sides have not left fans with a great deal of enthusiasm for the spectacle, but as you say this has a bit of everything; it's a local derby, SL v Championship, Maurice and Charlie streaking during the interval, families torn apart by loyalties, coal miners v wire makers, revenge for stealing Hilly. I don't doubt it will be on TV and watched by millions, they will probably make a film about it - one of those gritty northern epics like Kess, or Braveheart with helicopter shots of the crowds outside the HJ gates, locked out from a jam packed ground. Leigh fans will tell their kids about the day they had to walk to the match because the roads were completely blocked. ...............................and Roy Asotasi will play two whole twenty minute sessions, scoring a hat trick in each, to be carried off on the shoulders of grateful Wire fans who always knew he would come good in the end.
Yes, I reckon even though it will probably be on TV we should certainly get 10K. If people don't wan't to see this one then RL might as well pack up and join Union.'"
Very funny post! |

He is able to play, just he will be potentially in breach of contract if he does. However Leigh have a decent Counsel.
Cast your mind back to a similar case, with the same team, just over a month ago.

[i:5a56um9q]Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.[/i:5a56um9q]

That was a completely different scenario. The Doc 'thought' he had inserted a clause to stop Hock from playing against them till the end of 2016, when in fact, the clause actually said something ridiculous like 'Hock can't play for Salford Red Devils against Salford City Reds till the end of 2016.'

| They don't want facts Mish. The post is complete nonsense. If Higham plays, Leigh are in breach of contract, whereas Hock playing meant he was in breach of HIS contract with Salford, although what was typed up by the office staff at Salford allegedly was complete gibberish |
