injuries are key for everybody mate, theres always fall outs, unrest etc there be plenty available throughout 2023

I will be honest, i think it will be the most open SL ever. Not many points will separate the bottom 6, but i see Wakey not doing the great escape this time round. Pity, as it is only now they are finally upgrading Belle View.

We just need to stay up and consolidate. 8 wins should do this and our Home form needs to be spot on. There will be some right silly scorelines !!

A lot of time ,effort ,and money has gone into the rebrand and plans to help Leigh stay up this time , I truly hope it doesn’t fall on Stoney ground .
I have faith , and don’t think we will go down , but I do think we will struggle,,yeah we have some quality players , but we have some just number makers , let’s hope other become available as the season progresses.

Good to hear you are doing well Charlie. Whatever the good news is, congratulations. Good news is always worth celebrating.
Give the lads a cheers from me in the new shirt.

Good Morning VL , I hope you are well.?Leigh resembles Vancouver this morning ,it’s very white , cold,with a dusting of the white stuff, Ihope the LSV is ok for Saturday,it must be hard for you being so far away from the LSV .
I will deffo give the boys a cheer for you Saturday, can’t wait to sit in my usual place in the West Stand .My new shirts are already to wear , even got a Leopards scarf , very smart .
Anyway keep posting ,hopefully see ya on yer next visit .

Glad you OK, Charlie. Well, enjoy your leopard skin leotard while you can cos come the great financial crash of '23, DB will be looking to offload the Leopards. My cryptocurrencies and gold and silver investments will have skyrocketed and I will buy the underfed Leopards for a cut down price. The newly acquired Leopards will be attired in a traditional cherry and white rugby shirt. Match days will be on a Saturday with a 3pm KO. Transport to all away matches will be free to all supporters on subsidised coaches. All kids will be given free entry to games. 16 to 18 Yr £5 entry. The Legends bar will be returned to the fans. After I have purchased the LSV, a larger 'Mick Martyn' type bar will be built for the fans. I will take them to Challenge Cup success and Super League titles, and DB's reign of terror will be consigned to history.

I can dream

In the real world, after almost 60 years of support, my attendance of Leigh games will be via NOW TV cos I can't do Friday night KO. Enjoy the games, Charlie. See if I can spot you on't telly.

Well Graham, I have to disagree with yer prediction or vision whichever, for me Derek is here for a while yet , I hope so anyway , yeah I’ve bought all the attire and a couple of gold packages, I can’t wait for Saturday, it’s a pity you can’t make the homes games , i to have been a supporter for over 60 years now,hopefully many more .
I’m feeling a lot better now , I have been unwell for a while now,but have been more positive in my mind and the Family are helping me be positive,I think we can really do well in SL , but it won’t be easy , I have faith though .

I hope they stay up and prosper. IMG will probably kibosh it when they show their real agenda. I'll lose interest not being able to get to games. There is a big worldwide financial crash coming though, Charlie, so you never know DB may hit hard times and I'll save the day haha

Really hope you stay up, I think you have a bottom 2 squad along with Wakefield.

HKR I believe will be fine.

It’s a shame Ferguson couldn’t keep out of trouble as he would have been an asset in SL.

Think you need to lower your expectation with Hardaker too.

He is excellent defensively and a good ball carrier, but quite slow and has a beyond terrible passing game (unlike what the modern fullbacks need).

Lam realised he needs to play centre during his spell at Wigan, not sure where he’ll be lined up for you.

Your recruitment strategy seems to be players Warrington didn’t want to keep (after they finished 2nd bottom)

I still think Charnley can play but a soon to be 33 year old Tom Briscoe stands out of a panic signing.
Good luck!
