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



Has any contact with other amatuer clubs been established to request their public support?

I will now publically request Leigh Centurions to publically state their support for Leigh East on this issue

This is not a time for ' Fence sitting ' or sing behind your pint in your club house bar, its time for everybody to decide on where they stand, those that have ' talked the talk ' on community need to now decide to walk the walk and state exactly where they stand so the public of Leigh can decide if they are true to their words

Make your minds up gentlemen, we are waiting

It really is a staggering story this. As a parent of 2 children now it is unbelievable to read that our council want to make it almost untenable for Leigh East to continue. Why would the council even consider this? Who do they think would use these facilities and spend money in the bar if East were forced out?

I've emailed the entire list Keith good luck with your battle.

Please see previous post to Keith, we are on the case.

Quote: mish "Can I just ask how many kids use the facilities at East? Surely one of your best arguments is to point out this out, especially when the Government are always banging on about the merits of kids doing physical excercise and participating in organised sports.

Good luck to everyone involved.'"


Just noticed this subject hasnt been posted on Leighlife mish, is it something that could be discussed there?

Did Leigh East own the ground at Grassmere St or just lease it? If so did they lease if from the Council? Surely there must be compromise to be had to satisfy all parties. For the good and future of rugby league then we can't afford to let a club like Leigh East go to the wall. Everyone really needs to get behind this cause.

I would suggest the council do have another option, as I said time for everybody to publically state where they stand

I would imagine that the Council have a plan B for the site, they are devious not daft. This can be a massive opportunity for the Centurions Community Trust to prove their worth to the local game.

Tipster is right - this story really is staggering.

What happened to the London 2012 legacy of encouraging kids to participate in sports?

And what do we reckon is the Councils's plan B?

[i:5a56um9q]Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.[/i:5a56um9q] [b:5a56um9q]George Orwell [/b:5a56um9q] [i:5a56um9q]There are none so blind as those who will not see.

Absolutely Steve.

Someone who knows a little more about it than I do should go on there and start a thread to make other Leythers aware of what's going on. I'll do anything I can to help raise awareness of this issue.
