Hopefully we see a return from Govin in June then we'd have attacking players all over the park

kcab sfrawdder 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



Quote: Wheels "Kylie Leuluai and Richard Moore in Hunslet's squad to face Leigh this weekend...'"


Not really Wheels , it wont overly bother me as I wont be there to see it , however I do ' feel ' for the players , fans and club officials that have been betrayed by the abomination that signs his name as Nigel Wood , he is a disgrace to the sport , he was a disgrace at halifax and how he has been left in charge of the sports governing body is beyond comprehension

This is a little different, they are established SL players, there should be an age limit for this, say 23.
next time we play Fev, can we borrow Sam Tomkins & Josh Charnley ?

-------------------------- IRN-BRU - THE NEW TASTE OF RUGBY LEAGUE !!:10619.jpg



I could just about cope with the notion of aiding the development of 3 or 4 Super League younger players but this league is rapidly turning into a feeder club / Super League reserve competition.

I have no interest in watching anything that comes remotely close to that so on that basis I will not be wasting my time travelling and paying up to £18 admission when we play Hunslet away ( or Swinton for that matter)

Can't go to Swinton anyway personally but Hunslet looking likely to be off my list as well. Already choosing not to go to Keighley because it clashes with Hibs playing at Kilmarnock in the Scottish Cup Quarter Final.

It will be interesting to see how many ringers are fielded when two twinned teams play each other. I mean two treams from this league by the way. I feel a conspiricy theory coming on. What if the SL clubs have been told to allow some ringers to play in their twinned clubs side when they play a none twinned club. A way of trying to force us to twin with an SL club so we can compete in our own league.

The teams contracted players will soon get fed up when they don't get selected due to these DC players, and constantly miss out on winning pay etc.
Doing a full days work, then going training 4-times a week and not playing will just make players pack the game in.

Quote: FredParky "Frank if you think the actual rules of the original dc contract are any fairer than these codged up ones they are using now you must be doo-lalli.
The original rules were to give young prospects a chance to play at a higher level than u23's now one can hardly call Luellia and Moore either young or prospects, there are now feeder and 'used' clubs Im glad we have not gone down that road these teams have no ambition and now seem to be content to feed on the crumbs of the SL and be used by them to get and keep thier 1st team squads fit.'"



I personally think this twinning idea will cause serious harm to Championship attendances. I said so on here when it was first muted. I think it will bring about the demise of many clubs. I think it is plain wrong and plain stupid.

I personally don't think a couple of players being loaned to another club would make much difference but I do think the RFL allowing a NON RELEGATION CLUB teams entire squad to be available to one other club is crass stupidity and incredibly short sighted' by the guys at the top of the RFL.

It is similar crazy way to run the pro game' to the way Banks were run about 3 years ago and like for the Banks it will end in disaster.

How can it be stopped ? No idea but one things for sure the government won't bail out RL in this country as they had to do with the banking sector.

Just another thought. I am a diehard and was really looking forward to this coming season. I will still go but suspect too many might decide to call it a day because of this ridiculous innovation. Should our crowds fall below an average of about 1750 we too will end up as a twinned club.

This needs stopping and sooner rather than later imo.

First blank weekend Wigan have (e.g. knocked out of the Cup) we're using their entire first choice 17, apparently - then the rule will be changed!

Mines a pint... 'Hi-Ho Silver Lining' Headingley 05th October 2014.:1392.gif



First up its a total disgrace what is now going on.
Clubs like 'Swinton' and 'Hunslet' are making a total mockery of the league we are in and it has to stop.

I'd like Tevor Barton or our club to come out publicly and tell the Leigh supporters just what the ruling is on this and whether they back this idea or not.

I appreciate Leigh are not guilty and the 'clubs' involved in this (at the moment) are the poorly run ones in our sport - if the RFL are using this though as a lever to force the few remaining ambitious stand alone championship clubs to get on board and become training clubs like Hunslet, Swinton etc I think our owners have a duty to keep us the fans informed as indirectly this affects Leighs revenue - why would anyone want to watch a hybrid team from Hunslet that consists of 50% Leeds Rhino's 50% Hunslet Hawks - its a utter farce.

I hope our owners act quickly as the reality of the DC arrangement is not what the RFL and the clubs talked about before a ball was kicked.
This issue is the biggest single threat to Leigh Centurions long term existance as a stand alone RL club in its entire history IMHO and I'd like Leigh to act on this.

If it carries on unchallenged or unquestioned could someone tell me what the point of staying in the Championship is for Leigh as clearly 1 year from now we will be watching another teams reserve team running around in Leigh jerseys.

From what I have read on the other boards even Swinton and Hunslet will lose fans because of this.

This is a serious threat to the games pro existence outside NON RELEGATION LEAGUE and even they won't survive without other pro clubs.

I did post when licenscing was introduced it would lead to the pro games decline. The game is being run by people who don't understand the damage they are doing.
