| I'm really intrigued with this one I can't wait for this  Can anyone define what is classed as arriving early in time for this announcement? I normally turn up about 40 minutes before KO to watch the lads warm up. |

I hate these come early and see games, although the Limo with Parky and the minders was a good one.
As nobody knows who I am, I will spoil the party in the interests of those wanting an extra pint. I have it from a good sauce that this is the BIG announcement:
The announcement is that the club has been bought by American John Walton, CEO of Wallmart, after a recent visit to one of Asda's top performing stores in the UK, Atherleigh Way Leigh.
John asked about the derelict land opposite and was informed of the history and struggles of LRLFC. He was taken to the new facility at LSV and has decided to reward the loyal folk of Leigh by investing in the local sporting club to the tune of £2m pa over 10 years.
This investment is obviously huge in RL terms but is small fry for a man with family wealth of $50Billion whose great, great grandad originated from Westleigh prior to emigrating to the USA in 1858 by working his passage.
The RFL will be present and our key to SL 2013 will be formally handed over before the game. ASDA will sponsor SL next year as well as Leigh and will be organising our GF and CC celebrations.
As I have stated my sauce is generally very reliable.

Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.

Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

| OK, We all know Mo' and his 'flights of fancy'......but maybe he's on the right lines!!
I reckon GLOW's Euro-millions has come up, and we are announcing the purchase of 'New Hilton Park' from the council - and that Marstons have signed up to a multi-million sponsorship deal, and have agreed to re-name the, as yet, un-built boozer next door to "The Pon 'o' Lobby"!!  |

Sometimes I don't know why the club bother when there are people willing everything they do to be a failure before they've even announced what it is. Are you supposed to be a fan of the club? |

If it's an initiative that guarentees this club is still in business for the next 5 years and we keep our best players and coaches then thats major.
