[quote="Wembley71":suio7kr3].....They are our people. Drummond, Costello, Manfredi, Svabic, Martyn, Street, Tickle, Patel, Mossop, Horo, Bristow, Leuleui, Varley, Fleary, Rivett, Tabern, Doran, Woods, Donlan, Wilshire, Leaefa, Hansen, Sale, Murphy… these are all my people.
As a Leyther, you’re one of us the moment you come here to wear the shirt. I don't care where you were born, what colour you are, what religion you are, what language you speak. You're one of us, part of our culture, writing our history as you create your own, and making us stronger for it....[/quote:suio7kr3]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10303.jpg |

| Quote: eddywalls "mcdonald bailey...played and scored in every match for leigh r.l.{all be it that he only played in one game for leigh r.l.}the game he played in was a friendly against wigan r.l. on a wednesday under floodlights,{leigh r.l were the only team in the league with floodlights in 1953.} i don't remember which team won the match but i was there that night and so was the world's press, every time mcdonald bailey got the ball he could not see because of all the the flashing camera's so he kept dropping the ball because of this,but eventually he scored a try in the corner near the scoreboard end at hilton park. ....r.i.p...mcdonald bailey......'"
Rumour has it that his signing, and subsequent appearance against the pies (virtually assuring a 20k+ crowd), was orchestrated to pretty much pay for said floodlights - a genius bit of marketing if true!! 
Summat for our current 'custodians' to take note of!! 
RIP Mcdonald Bailey. | | |
