Not been on here for a while but anyone thinking top 4 next year will be hard im not sure i agree, we have just added 100K's worth of talent to a squad thats lost 2 league games in 2 years. I see nothing but a journey to next August were by the real test begins.

I must say I agree 100% with you Ste,as I feel Fev are weaker this year , I'm not sure about Bradford, London are a bit unknown but should be beatable, Sheff are in transition,and I think Fax wont take teams by surprise as they did last year ,for me they will finish 4th or 5th, I predict Dews as my dark horses, I just hope we learn from last season's mistakes in the Qualifiers.

Charlie boy we know all about your predictions from last season both you and the Tipster talk sh8 ,you 2 nd King Degsy are Leigh's 3 stooges plenty of noise but no sense, we have seen your predictions but keep them to yourself. Charlie knows FA.

Can't show any disrespect to anyone otherwise it will be hard but do agree. We've strengthened. Fev will be worse off after missing out on top 4 last year. Can't imagine Bradford getting any stronger as they spend more time out of SL. Sheff will be a bit unknown as to what they do, they're going full time so will improve but they're still a year behind us and have overhauled the squad a bit, Fax again will be much better but still part time, will probably pull off some surprises but equally lower teams might pull of some surprise wins against them. London seemed to settle into Championship life after a bad start last year never really showed great prowess though (except in one game we won't talk about [cough] ). Inclined to agree with Charlie, Dewsbury improve every year wouldn't be at all surprised if they did a Fax, made the top 4 & impressed a lot of people in The Qualifiers. Think they're still a few years off challenging for top spot & promotion but if they carry on as they have they'll get there.

Do love these Fax fans beat us once in 4 years haven't they and they are still dining out on the one victory months later

He can run,but he cant beat anyone.Positional play is poor,and very suspect under a high ball,hence not in Wigin team.

You wouldnt believe how comical that sounds to anyone apart from Leigh fans.

Although Ste, it probably was the one game that meant most to us in that period!

I see Bradford have announced that they are running with a reduced FT squad next season which only suggests one thing to me. Come the Middle 8's they will have room to manoeuvre under the salary cap so one should expect an influx of Full Time Super League loan signings in at Odsal to bolster their numbers and give them a massive boost when you need it most.

I

Aye but every other game during that period was a belter which you got through by the skin of your teeth. More of the same next year, love our games with Leigh - always classics

And next year we will have a much better team, be afraid you Leighers, very afraid,I'm counting Charlie boys money already.

Not sure id call it talent tbh you have signed aload of mercenaries from 'SALFORD' who finished where last season
You only lost 2 'league' games in 2 years because you were playing part timers most weeks.
The 8s were a disaster for you last year and you found your level as was seen in your final finishing position.

The reality is you may finish top of the Championship next year without losing a game (only threat could have been Bradford but they seem in the poo poo again, and can see them losing a few stars and going backwards.)
You may take a scalp or 2 in the CC (you wont win it with a championship squad.)
I also think you will be running a very thin squad if you sign Rangi which wont help you at all come the 8s, and even if you do make the MPG when it boils down to it if you play any SL opposition you will lose as there is a vast difference in SL quality and Championship quality as all championship teams found out last year.
The system favors SL teams and while ever it is like this i carnt see any Championship club making it to SL which makes the system flawed but there is a small glimmer of hope that will never come true sad but fact.

We will not lose a league game next season

Probably the same conversation Derek Beaumont is having with the RFL. Now if you can see it and we can see it,why can't the RFL not see it? Theres an obvious answer and it's not Josh Charnely on loan.
