I dare say the structure was probably beyond repair (or at least without a HUGE investment that you'd never get back).

No not you Ivan it's the childish use of emoticons.

A market trader told me that Tesco had bought the land and was intending to charge non customers to park, this is the place that all the Market traders have parked for free. If this is no longer free, it means the traders will park on the market carpark, which is why on Saturday I waited half an hour for a place to park, as approx half of the cars on there were traders.
The Market these days has to compete with the supermarkets and because of the high rents the stallholders already pay, the Market struggles enough as it is.
Im not keen on the new tescos to be honest, very expensive, offers always sold out not in stock, bad lay out.
I will be shopping at ASDA mainly and Morrisons too for my meat and Veg, when it opens.

Dick never heard so much rubbish in my life.

Tescos have not and do not have any intention to buy that land,why do they need to buy that when they have amble parking land as it is.

You may have to change your veiws on big nasty tescos as out of all the so called big supermarkets they are actually the only ones showing interest in working along leigh centurions,and are currently having meetings with the firm on a weekly basis

lets hope tesco,s give leigh centurions a big pot of cash for next year

Cannot see that happening Paul, they may do some sponsoring though.

Its amazing how different people see things.For me,tescos is set out brilliantly,the quality of the produce is far superior to asda and just as cheap,the whole atmosphere at tescos is one of hello and welcome with loads of space between the aisles.
Go to asda and its like the wacky races and more stressful than supporting leigh.

Agreed Tesco and Sainsbury are much more civilised than Asda.

Be interesting to see what the new Morrisons is like.

The 'free car park' - that was - will end up as a pay and display with extra wardens checking for no / expired tickets to make even more money from the 'visiting motorist'

Isn't the multi story going on the land that use to be the doctors at the side of the police station?

so you saying its me then fred
the emotion of is as it states the person saying i was slagging leigh off (ive lived in leigh all mi life and love it so why would i slag it off )

so if its aimed at me YOU ARE SO WRONG!

all that crap and now breaking the AUP 2.2 any more and I will take action, it was a slight hint that you behave this is not a hint it's a public warning
