Interview with PR in the Reporter ,A couple of quotes , " Already I have identified with Shaun ( Wane ) 4 or 5 players who will be our potential DRs for 2013 and believe me the Leigh fans are going to be delighted " and another quote ,
" But just where they play are played or whether they are selected is entirely up to me . Wigan or any other club does not have any input into Leigh Centurions selections at all ,I take sole responsibility for that "
I hope that clears things up ( this quote from me

)

Cheers Mate, thanks for the update , makes things a little clearer.
So its 4 or 5 contracted players from Wigan Warriors potentially playing for us next year.

I think its safe to say I don't share Pauls enthusiasm over this little snippet of news

.

Will the DC's still work the same way as previous seasons, where W1gan can take away players at will when approaching our next game? If so, how can PR decide if and when they play all the time?

Never liked DC's. Needs must I suppose.

Think he means if they are available to him he will decide whether or not they play .

That's what i thought he meant as well itsatry.

" Already I have identified with Shaun ( Wane )"

Being a LEYTHER....that is HORRIBLE to read.

I HATE W**AN
HOPE THEY LOSE EVERY GAME THEY PLAY, I remember when we used to play 'em (not their academy side in a friendly)
WHY CAN'T WE HAVE THIS AGREEMENT WITH WARRINGTON, PIES didn't touch us with a 'barge pole' whem Millward was our coach, how pathetic is that - PIES can sod off.

The reason is Wire have decided to "Twin" with Swinton.

The RFL have introduced this not our club.

For us it means we can not get DC players from clubs who have twinned with other Championship clubs.

PR will probably only use DC players if he thinks he has no alternative.

Would any Leyther object to Tom Spencer playing for us next season ?

Why hate Wigan if it temporarily suits us ?


We are where we are' but I think 'because of the squad we have assembled we will still win the league next season even without DC players.

More likely cos the club is in wigans sevice area.
The club plays out of a stadium owned and run by wigan,and apparently, the club have now been given a good financial deal to play out of that staduim.
No doubt there are one or two other things as well.

There is no doubt from a council point of view Leigh is part of Wigan Council.

Mind you on refelction' if I recall Wigan have twinned with South Wales Scorpions so it makes my previous post look a bit strange' so maybe I am wrong about us only getting DC's from the Pies.

I still think however even without DC players Leigh have a better squad than last season.

I don't understand all this " I hate Wigan " business ,I know some Wigan fans feel the same about us but it doesn't bother me in the least .I"m not fond of Leeds ,don't know why just like to see them lose, unless they are playing an Australian team

but if we were getting some DCs from them it wouldn't upset me .I too think the squad we have is more than capable of winning silverware next season but injuries happen and thats when the DCs come in very handy .
