Well my view on this is so what.

Given the choice of being a twinned club or an independant club with a coach who selects the players he wants is a no brainer.

Become a twinned club and you might as well pack it in because your ambition has gone.

I'd rather support a team of North ' or West stand fans in Leigh shirts rather than support a Leigh team effectively selected by the coach of another club.

There is a conflict of interest too with regard to twinning when the Challenge cup comes round and quite honestly I think the people who came up with this twinning idea have not given this enough thought.

Take the Premiership deal as another example. Leigh away at Whitehaven on a Thursday night. Doubt many Leigh fans will be able to make the trip plus our players have to take half a day off work. Who compensates the players for their lost wages ? Who compensates Haven for the loss of visiting and paying Leigh fans ?

I won't mention licenscing which despite propaganda has led to a decine in attendances for practically all clubs.

So the RFL have created a situation where some teams can have dual reg players and other can't. Great way to maintain competitive balance and the integrity of the competition.

I personally really enjoyed last nights Meeting , i thought Trevor B , was as usual very informative ,and very open ,and Riddy , Adam Higson , and Ryan Brierley , all spoke very well .

They seem to agree with my views about having a successful season next year , Ryan B looks to have put on some weight and Muscle for next season , and Higson says his recovery from injury is 4 weeks in front of what is expected , they feel the Squad is very good and i thought they helped give the Fans something to look forward to .

As for what Trevor said about Duals , i think we will benefit from this idea , mainly because we will now have Loanees , coming to Leigh mainly from Wigan , and they could be experienced players now .Trevor said Kris Radlinski was coming to the LSV on Monday , to talk to PR , about possible Loanees .

The whole meeting had a feel good feeling about it , i cant wait for next year , and agree with Trevor when he says hopefully we can get another 150-200 fans through the Gates next season , now the Sunday games are back .

Anyway it was good to put the Twinning rumours to bed , as was said "We are NOT TWINNING with Wigan " .

Now Edward i didnt actually call you an idiot,i was just informing you off what they do. so i accept your apology as long as you get me a guinness when i see you out

o.k. jc....would that be a pint or a bottle? ether way i owe you one....

Apart from Tom Spencer or an injury crisis I'm not sure.

I put £50 on Leigh going undefeated in League games next season today.

Had a boozy lunch I think it's a good bet.

Pretty sure Cassandra is a Fax fan

He is a fax fan.

The Watcher thinks that the RFL ruling that does not allow a club, not deemed a feeder club to a SL team, to sign a D/R player is illegal & should be challenged. Surely it is a restraint of trade, could you imagine football teams in the lower leagues falling for that one ? No neither could I. Come on Leigh pull your finger out & get this unfair situation quashed asap.

All of our main rivals wont be having them either, so why worry, as long as we get a couple of loanees, Spencer would be excellant, fingers crossed.
