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 |

| Quote: soldiers field "thats for the club to work out starbug, but stop blaming the franchise system, the rfl have staed one team will definately come up and we have failed , the fault lies with us.
should the chief ex not be responsible for creating crowds of 2500 if not then get rid till we find some body that can achieve it.
not seen too many promotions this year or new ideas.'"
The franchise system is part of it , the TV games don't do anybody in this competition any favours , the RFL either don't know or care about the Championships
But yes the main problem is with the club , or to be more correct , all the clubs
I still don't understand this ' messiah ' bit ? What are you suggesting ? , that I have ideas on how clubs can secure their futures ? Well yes I have , you have just posted that you don't have any ideas on what should be done , so what exactly are you saying ?

| Crilly Park could be the only alternative in another couple of years.......and given the reality of the situation would it actually be a bad move ?
Even if the terms were "rent free" the Centurions must be losing a packet just on the playing side ?
.........and I dread to think how much the LSV is losing, it can't go on for ever, all very well finding fault with ideas like Sale Sharks playing here or having pop concerts etc but ultimately will there be any alternative ?

| So who's fault is it that AT may not put anymore money in and we will get kicked out of LSV and we will be no more?
It is the people running the club who let the club slide a few years ago by giving jobs to coaches who where simply not good enough and allowing them to sign sh?te players. They then need to pay them off - financial suicide when employing someone else with even less experience or ability. We are now trying to recover but still have the remains of that sh?te in the club.
We need a fresh start with alot of work to be done within the club. It's easy to put money in when you have it, it's good to be able to speak in front of sponsors over lunch but these alone don't get fans through the gates. These guys need to work damned hard now to pick the club up - or simply walk away and let's either fold or hope some others are interested.

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 |

| Does the OP post on the Saints board or is it just a herbert who seems obsessed with us.

I was sat down on the terrace well before the last try , the cards were already on the table as far as I could see
I am one year older and have already accepted I will never see our club in the top flight again , all I desperately want is to still see a club playing under the name Leigh Centurions at any level
