icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg 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 |

Ok l`ll stick to my OP ...............You do come across as being anti-Leyther ,even given your chosen user name............So unless I`m given info from someone on here who`s known to me I will treat you as I deem fit........ A troll................

Which posts show me as anti Leyther ? I challenge you to find a post. When you find you can't then you can be big enough to hold your hand up, and accept I may have differing opinion of how the great game should go but it doesn't make me any less of a Leigh fan.

| I'll just add a bit of sensibility about the Yorkshire teams. Most of the lads playing outside of SL subsidise their weekly wage by playing RL and win bonus's.
The thought of a team saying 'lets throw this £XYZ win bonus in the bin so ABC can stay in the league' is a bit silly. They spend all year knocking lumps out of each other for not a lot of money, so why on earth would they throw away a good few hundred quids win bonus?

As a Leyther, you’re one of us the moment you come here to wear the shirt. I don't care where you were born, what colour you are, what religion you are, what language you speak. You're one of us, part of our culture, writing our history as you create your own, and making us stronger for it....[/quote:suio7kr3]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10303.jpg |

| Quote: worldcup "Well the main problem was we have been cr@p in the middle part of the season, without experienced or quality coaching and not enough strength in depth especially at halfback.
We can't even blame the bonus point if it hadn't been introduced we definitely would have been 2nd from bottom.
Yes results of other clubs have been iffy, we simply needed to win games such as gateshed and Hallifix and we didn't.
Never mind hopefully we will be better next season role on a proper coach and some more good players. Lets take the div by storm and win the rail cup, a good run in the challange cup and trash some of those teams that are laughing now. We will be back
About sums it up for me!!
IMHO one game defined our season - the loss to Featherstone, at home, in front of the SKY cameras where we not only tossed a lead, but proceeded to toss the bonus point that ultimately would have made all this discussion unnecessary!!
Ah, well - onwards and upwards!!

| Quote: Batman "Similar story....
Look at Super League 2006.....
Wakefield 28 10 0 18 -126 20
Castleford 28 9 1 18 -393 19
Catalans 28 8 0 20 -293 16
We were relegated at the expense of the french. It's not right, but take it on the chin and you bounce back!'"
So you'd honestly prefer that Catalans got relegated and went bust rather than them going on to develop a thriving team that can attract 18,000 to a game in Barcelona? I think its more telling that a club who have been around for over a century can't pull in a decent crowd.

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 |

So you would rather we went bust ?

Yep I saw all three coaches a few weeks ago sat in the bingo at featherstone working mens club, plotting the relegation of Leigh.
They then sat down with the teams and told them they would have to lose ans obviously would not get win pay either....all the lads said yes thats fine we will throw the game we dont need thewin pay.........numpty

Because those are the rules, that were set and agreed before the season started.
Just as the stupid bonus point rule was. If that wasnt there you would be relegated anyway, as Toulouse would be above you.
Its sad to see you relegated, I know exactly how you feel as we have been there ourselves, but you need to keep the faith and come straight back up. I am sure Millward will do this for you.

I did over react last night , just responding to a d--head and I was at an all time low,its just that I was so sure that Batley would win and it was proved to be right.Anyone can get anger and frustration fog their thinking once in a while and to be honest I'm far from a bad loser usually.
What I do know is that Leigh did not play up to their standards this season but to go down 3rd from bottom of a 10 team league,when the RFL have a non releation or promotion policy for SL is sickening.The next time I see Lewis or Wood on telly I think I hope I don't have anything heavy in my hand,or its a trip to Currys soon after.

Can't Wait For Next Season When Hopefully Some "PROFFESIONAL IDEAS Come To The Fore And We Get Ourselves Out Of The Total Mess We Are Now In. Oh And Bytheway Whats The Betting We'll Still Be Charged £14 To Stand And Watch 3Rd Division Rugby,It Would Not Suprise Me One Little Bit.
