Looking forward to next season already! Leyther and Loyal:1972.jpg

Great attitude! If AT did this we'd have no club and there would only be Easts and Miners......

Sport is in cycles. Some people can't stand not being top dogs in this comp any more. I think many people have a point but I think the malaise set in last July when the whole Franchise debacle came to light.

The seeds of Leigh's downfall came when it won the Grand Final against Whitehaven.

The squad and fabric of the club was ripped out to go SL and it damn near killed us.

I can't see any more white knights on the horizon. The club is in a downward spiral currently this season and play-off ambitions will have to be put on hold until the club has achieved at least 2 more victories.

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg

I was taught two things in life.... you'll get taxed on earnings and Leigh will let you down... Both great snippets so everything else is rosey icon_smile.gif

Sport is in cycles. Some people can't stand not being top dogs in this comp any more. I think many people have a point but I think the malaise set in last July when the whole Franchise debacle came to light. - top dogs are in SL, mongrels are in this league but what most fans are sick of is awful leadership and lack of direction

The seeds of Leigh's downfall came when it won the Grand Final against Whitehaven. - wrong, they came when SCL came in, the decisions they made and lack of basic RL know how,

The squad and fabric of the club was ripped out to go SL and it damn near killed us. - SL should have made us, but there is a reason why lunatics dont run the asylum

I can't see any more white knights on the horizon. The club is in a downward spiral currently this season and play-off ambitions will have to be put on hold until the club has achieved at least 2 more victories. - nobody with half a brain cell would come anywhere near this club in its current set up'"

I'm not convinced they'd come in again...

Too many folk have long memories and won't go near the place cos Leigh didn't get Murph's name on that extended contract in 1971, or because of Mick Higgins or because Ashy said something out of turn back in 1992.. the excuses are endless and I don't believe the former fans can be brought back.

They are happy to snipe in the pubs and clubs.

and it is that shortsightedness that has gripped this club like a cancer in recent years.
We have a half full glass, that seems almost empty to most.

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg

my dad started to take me wastching leigh when i was 7, i am now 38 in july. i go home and away, and class myself as a loyal fan, i have a moan and hate it when we play bad, and love it when we win and play well. I will always be a leigh fan and will continue to be loyal to my club till they hammer the final nail into my coffin, watching and supporting your team is about the emotinal roller coaster that rl and sport is all about, i can see why people are upset, but come on we have been in worse positions than this, and come back fighting, what we need is for the loyal fans to stay loyal and continue to support our club, even if we think it can be run better, and who doesn't,m but to walk away is not a option, not for me anyway, loyal leigh fan til i die.
