maybe, some things have happened outside the daily working environment that would mean Lenaghan doesn't want his players being around the Leigh setup???'"
See what you mean, but it's done no harm to Blythe, Emmitt or Mcarthy.

| Must say "Lenaghan does not want them joining the Leigh set up" is a reference to the team spirit in the Leyth squad do you think ?
This is Leyth and Wigan not Persia/Iran take your pick. More likely no-one bought Lenaghan a savaloy when we beat Wigan's strongest side for our last friendly and he was not happy at our clubs quite obvious response to the side they sent which he reneged on !

1ST YEAR sent a decent side, 2ND YEAR academy side, 3RD YEAR - ZILCH !!
Has there been some 'unofficial' fall out that we will never know about, yes I know this question won't be answered !
I think we told them where to go when they said they'd be sending an academy side again for the third friendly.
And I'm not sure Basil will get on terribly well with the powers that be after his time at Wigan which is probably why they send their players elsewhere, especially when ex-Wigan players Betts and Wright coaching in this league.

nope definately not that although very creative!
Mr Millward (whom i rate) joined us for a second time not that long after Lenaghan publically praised Leigh and said he would support us an send players our way?????
im no detective but..............what standard of team did they send us last year? what score was the Leigh V Wigan friendly this year?

| I'd rather have a DC from Wire than a pie but it does seem rather silly sending them all the way to to Cumbria

After last Sunday, there are Widnes fans who would dispute that statement, Matt!

| Thing is we need the money that a decent Wigan side would have sent in year 2 would have realised. It is not just the result is it ? I am a dieheard and also realistic. When someone makes an agreement with me I expect them to honour it.
I know when I make an agreement I do. Who does this guy think he is when he gets upset about being criticised for not doing something he said he would do.
Bet you honour a promise you would make.
He is imo a very sensative man who for some reason doesn't accept criticism even when he knows he is wrong.
Hatty can find out the truth she has been following Wigan for about 3 seasons now.

| To be honest Frank I'm not sure how much we'd have made if we played Wigan's first team three years in a row - best playing them alternate years at the most so the previous occasions thrashing is out of the memory (for them of course rather than us!)

Believe Tomkins was there again on Sunday? Think he goes to watch Andy Thornley as well as obviously being a closet Leigh supporter.

i remember bringing Hansen for the first time, still makes me smile now, stood in the Leyth end as per normal when we smashed Haven last match when we nearly finished bottom.
one by one crowd noticed him and heads started to turn, all of a sudden the Barmy Army started to sing "we hate Wigan, we hate Wigan"
followed closely by "Hansen is a Leyther,Hansen is a Leyther na na na na"
Good Times!!!
he still comes most home games now with me although we do sit down cas he's scared of the Salmon Army!!! LOL

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 |

| Quite possibly the arrogant t055er that masquerades as w1g4ns assistant coach doesn't want his juniors dirtying their feet over this side of the borough , his opinon of our club and town , he has made quite clear in the past
