| Quote: leighonardo "I don't think anyone has any objection to you watching Leigh, most people will actively encourage you to attend this match and support the lads. I completely understand that aspect.
The reason I am not is A) The match does not appeal to me one bit B) I think Trevor Barton and the players would rather I send my admission money to them rather than Swinton Wolves and C) I have other activities planned on Good Friday, including watching some grass to grow.
As i said its up to the individual what games they attend , its what suits them and what they want to watch , myself i cant stand watching Soccer , i do think your reason for the (B) part of your post is wrong ,as the players have always stated at away games how the Leigh fans life them and their performances .

They said the same about their nine(?) players who have 'left' Wire...the same ones who train with Warrington every week.

| I have no doubt our staff and players will be taking it seriously, Swinton on the other hand have turned it into a 'nothing' season. Will all the Warrington players equally be taking it as seriously as Leigh's?
You will be telling me next all the Swinton Woves costs, staff and players are actually paid for by Swinton.

Obviously i cant say how Swinton or the Wire players will look at the Game , but as Professionals and even Semi professionals i would have thought they would take it seriously , are you saying all Swinton fans should just stop watching Swinton ?
As for the costs i think the Parent club pays so much and Swinton pay a fee for having them play , but im not sure ?Also havent Swinton D-R the full Wire squad ?I think Leigh are talking about a couple of Wigans youngsters , thats all .

Matt as i have said , im sure Swinton have D-R the full Wire squad , and i think they have actually signed some players like Shaw , and Riley , and a couple of others as contracted players , im not sure about that , but Marshy would tell you better .

The 'contracted' players (Mendieka and the like) were initially announced as dual contract players - as if by magic they've now been released from Warrington (despite no press coverage indicating this) yet somehow still train with Warrington as well as Swinton?! Anyway, they're not really our problem as such but there's no doubting that the integrity of the league is being damaged with each week.

Well thats what im saying , what Swinton do is up to them , not me as a Leigh fan , i watch whoever Leigh play , if Leigh were playing Workington next week , and they played 17 Eskimos i would still go and watch Leigh , not say im not going because they are not really Workington players , for me once a player pulls on a shirt of a said club , he becomes that said clubs player .
On Good Friday , i will be at the LSV watching Leigh , maybe on my own , but i will still be there .

Championship clubs don't pay anything for/to the DR players. There's merely a (token) amount taken off their salary cap limit for each game played.

Perhaps it might be worth your while ringing Wigan for your tickets for this game, you know now you have jumped on board with them.!!

Well i'm a little torn now as to who the opposition is going to be, you know with your "we'll never link up...link up".
But as someone else said once the shirt is on they are Lions players just as the Wigan boys will be Leigh.
So me I'm gonna watch a good old fashioned Swinton v Leigh derby, you can continue to turn your back on your club doing far more damage.
