Quote: fun time frankie "As a fan at last years game it's the most horrible 2 hours ever watching rugby even if we'd have won I'd of still have felt the same until the end obviously but there's absolutely no enjoyment to be had saying that have a good time and I hope you win
But for me that's what sports all about, we are where we are and I'd rather not be in all honesty, but I think the m8s are a great concept.
People may well argue about growing a club with stability via franchise etc, but for me this is what British sport is all about - dreading it but at the same time bring it on

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result:

Oh yeah I know what you mean I'd be there going through it again if it had been us it's the sadist in us that puts ourselves through the pain and agony icon_biggrin.gif

Leigh to win challenge cup before 2020 Leigh to reach Grand Final by 2022 Derek to get a queens honour (mbe) by 2025 Oh Leigh oh Leigh oh Leigh //www.tipsterste.fabpage.com/ [quote="Michael_Ward"]Ricky Bibey = cack. He's no good - the lad is huge but couldn't bust through a wet paper bag. He was crap at Wigan, he was crap here, and christ knows why Saints then signed him. Predictably, he was crap there as well.

Yes it seemed we passed endless vehicle's all containing Leigh Supporters all the way up the M6. A most splendid day. The atmosphere was superb. I especially recall calling in at the services on the way home. It was absolutely full to the rafters of jubilant Leigh fans celebrating winning the league. A marvellous occasion indeed.

We win on Saturday and similar day's could be nearer than we think.

I've picked up a couple of disturbing vibes in the media about the possible outcome of next Saturday's game - namely that a Catalans' defeat would be catastrophic for the future of French Rugby League. I would hope that such an outcome wouldn't be laid at our door! (should we be good/lucky enough to prevail)

Obviously, my concerns are 100% for the future of Leigh RL, and then British RL, and then maybe French RL, by some distance! However, if Catalans do go down, I would sincerely hope and suggest that the blame be THEIRS, rather than that of the 'P&R' system that would potentially still be in place to give them the opportunity to climb back into the top tier of RL Europe. (or whatever it's going to be called when Toronto make it to SL)

Irony is represented below. [quote="JEAN CAPDOUZE":162hm7sy]He is not telling the truth. He is talking paranoid rubbish.[/quote:162hm7sy]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_59837.jpg



If any team in any sport is relegated, then they simply were not good enough to be in that league.

I suspect in 2019 the RFL will increase the teams to 14 or more (16 works in the NRL), and back to a franchise model whereby a profitable business model is a key focus. Surely this is the way forward as rugby league is on the decline on and off the pitch as various commentators have recently highlighted. Leigh has a great benefactor, ground and support base so nothing to fear there - we're in either way. Super League is the rugby league brand ambassador so to speak so the RFL have to maximise the potential of this -- at present, it's a bit dull!

Meaning that Catalans, Leigh, London, Widnes will all be in SL resulting in a good competition with wider exposure.

Quote: ColD "Love to see 8k, but not expecting to, certainly be interesting to see how much effort Cats fans make - so long as I get my normal seat I'm a happy bunny Choose how many are there they'll be Leythers, as Catalan's contribution won't amount to much.
Ask Degsey how much it cost the club to go over there for a league game and compare it with the revenue they spend over here, maybe most of the club chairmen might not be too bothered if Cats got relegated.

Good find. Good insights. I'd also like to see Dave Parkinson regain the lead commentor role on LCTV.
