| I know you all like a good rumour.....
I'm down here London, the word is that if we just get to the GF we'll get a SL licence. One SL team deffo being shown the door (I'll let you draw your own conclusions who), and as long as we get to the GF we replace them.
My informant, Syd Scoop, says it's kosher....but hey, Syds been wrong before

Best one yet - getting to the GF is the problem - but I will keep the faith and hope and that your informant is spot on
And Widnes?? - to near Wrexham

| I can't see this happening. You've done NOTHING to try and fudge your way to the promised land. Fax had a half decent attempt with that crowd announcement. Widnes's latest revelation that they can make gold bars out of old baking trays really does blow everyone out of the water though. Unless Leigh announce that Rupert Murdoch is going to buy a house in LobbyLand I can't see you getting a license.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

The widnes lesson in creative accounting has really given me a giggle , in actual fact it is in my opinion the 1 st bad decision Steve O Connor has made
What is funny is the reaction from several previously level headed fans to what is plainly a PR story

| Just had a chat with Syd. He's assured me that this totally kosher, and this is our real chance. Personally I hope it's true, but I wouldn't put it on here is there wasn't some truth in it....we shall see.
Halifax may or may not have been told this as well, Syd doesn't know. One thing IS for sure....a SL club is being shown the door

From the Leigh Gazette........
Mystery surrounds the news that Richard Lewiss been recently talking about purchasing shares in Leigh Centurions.
Leighs years as the number 1 club outside SL could be over as the Gazette caught up with Mr Lewis at his new penthouse near the LSV sports Village.
Initially he was reluctant to talk , however he did say he was moving to Leigh and would be 'astonished' if they didn't get a SL licence such is the turn in the clubs fortunes.
A unnamed RFL official from Halifax told us over a expensive chinese banquet for 20 that Richard had become interested in Leigh after a phonecall he received.
Apparantly he 'turned white with shock' and when Nige......sorry our contact asked what was wrong he said 'that bloody Rowleys caught me out'.
After ordering a duck dinner for 18 Mr Wo...our informant said 'it stems from Rich's night out after the RFL meeting in Manchester to ratify Widnes's 2012 franchise, 'apparantly Rich went to a bar on a street near a Canal in Manchester with a friend and got blind drunk', when we asked Informant 'N' what the relevance was (and steadfastly refused to order a further side dish of 12 Chicken Wings) He replied ' Rich bumped into a man who he hates as he "always tells the truth - especially about franchises" when he was on his way back to the Midlander Hotel , 'however its unsure what happened afterwords.
Mr Rowleys was contacted who said he had 'no idea' what it was about and the only people he saw the other night when waiting for the 33 Nightbus home from Piccadilly Gardens was someone who he recognised as a ex RU player from Wales and someone who he recognised as a man who couldn't find the LSV around July 2009.

| Just got home.
Last night I was in Weatherspoons nr Marylebone Station.
In the corner was the Duke of Edinburgh and he told me that he and Liz love watching Sky on a Thursday when Leigh are on.
He also told me when Liz abdicates next summer she wants to buy a house on Glebe St.I am invited to the housewarming. Don't know wether I'll go though cos I am told she is very sparing with the red wine.
Phil as he asked me to call him was good company but he insisted on talking in Greek which surprisingly worked out quite well for me and my mate as we were on our twefth pint of the day at that time. But my mate could not remember him at all when we were having breakfast.
