Speaking of the town crest, does anyone know what the latin writing means?

You can always tell a smart ar$e but you can't tell em much.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_16267.jpg



The motto is 'Aequo pede propera', to 'hasten with equal foot' or more easily translated as 'to make progress steadily.'

I don't know the answer I was hoping someone on here would. Your explanations sounds reasonable Fred, I suppose that's as good a reason as any eh? icon_thumb.gif

On a crusade to return Leigh Centurions to their traditional colours of Cherry & White.:29511.gif



Quote: trainee_lobbygobbler "I dont......'"


I the olden days (when Fred Parky was a lad), Wi*an played in blue. Due to the financial climate at the time they couldn't afford to buy a kit and the very helpful Leythers gave them an old Cherry & White kit to play in. Ever since that day they have played in our colours in honour of the generous Leythers.
