Quote: maurice "Gents as a board member I am delighted with today's gate and the 2500 plus Leythers In it
The touchdown delivered great value and we had some first timers interested in sponsoring the club, the legends was fantastic. So great to see generations of families together and enjoying the Craic
The board are buzzing, the fans are buzzing and the sponsors are getting more by the day
How about the best try never to be given at LSV can't wait to see it again as that was almost game over
Hope you enjoyed as we certainly did'"


Mo, it probably couldn't be seen unless in line with it but what happened with the disallowed try was the short pass from the halfback hit the receiver's upper arms and bounced into the hands of the dummy runner who was a yard or so to his left so that it looked like one pass but in fact it was 2 and the second a yard and a half forward!
Irrespective, I thought the day was great, from the buzz in Legends beforehand to the much improved pre and HT entertainment and to the atmosphere in the hospitality. The guys on the field gave it a big effort and things can only improve with time.
Well done to everyone involved!
Now bring on Salford...

Quote: newshy38 "Conned yet againy Wigan],paying £16.to watch their reserves play.'"



Wigan said they would send a strong side, not their strongest.
How many would have moaned if Wigan had played their first team and won 60-0 and what would Leigh have got out of it?

I agree it was a strong skilful side with plenty of power & pace and gave Leigh a real good workout that 15 min spell just after half time will do Leigh a world of good in the coming months

2,988 is OK. I was surprised to see this was the attendance, only thought half that would bother. I didn't go, and I don't really know anyone who even considered going. They are only warm up games and will all be forgotten about by the time Leigh and Batley run out on to the pitch on 16th Feb.
As for expecting a full strength Wigan side? When do they ever send a full team in this annual pre-season match?

Agreed.

I was initially disappointed at Wigan's youthful selection. However, as it turned out their selection was spot-on to make a good contest out of it, and I too feel that both sides would have benefitted more as a result. Leigh were certainly given plenty to think about, and Wigan's future looks to be still in good hands.
