the lads train mon night, wed night and fri night 6pm till 7.30 but some go in early to do extras and satarday morning for an hour. but during april it has changed to tuesday and thursday nights and sunday mornings.
Some of the players do extras themselves, ive seen hilly and stewart at bodyimage training three or four times a week before they train with the rest of the team

Your field and goal kickers have to practice on the l.s.v how else can they judge the distances etc that is a must.If not it will just be like playing away.

Well you see, this £500k pitch we've got can only be used 42 times a season; thats less than once a week or it will turn into soup.
So whilst they'll whore it out to anyone who wants to pay they won't let us practice our kicking unless the kicking tee leaves big divots in the pitch.

For 500k it should be a lot tougher than soup , got to agree though it seems a case of if The Price is Right then please feel free to use the pitch Absolutley stinks IMO |

To be fair, it will still be in its 'maintenance period' and will still be maturing, so if it gets hammered in the first year and doesn't hold up, who pays for it to be redone?
But if there is more than 30 games played on it in the first year I will be very suprised so a few hours kicking practice and a few drills every other Saturday morning wont exactly hurt (provided Genesis are not playing obvioulsy).

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: thudder "Ok just got back from a great weekend in Toulouse They are shoe ins for a franchise next time(location skill factor set up...did you see the sponsers list on the hand out it covered a full page?? Commercial manager take note!!!) Really really great set up and....PROFESSIONAL!!!
Right i have posted a few times on this board so far and have been as guilty as lots at slating players, passion, skill etc etc....
BUT that all changed in the time spent speaking with the players in the melting pot on friday before the game(AND NO none of them drank and when kelly said lets go they left as one)....
Shocked amazed astounded at being told 3 x one hour training sessions a week?? and not on the LSV??? How on earth can we play against full time teams with that in place?? Halifax Widnes Gateshead Barrow toulouse all full time and will be for next threes seasons getting stronger and stronger as we get weaker and weaker...People keep saying buliding for the future there is no future if we cant compete?? I genuinley feel sorry for the players who are being short changed by the mangement of the club....
Now before the i love Arthur Thomas Alan Rowley all directors and wheres your money why dont you cough up(well close to thousand pounds already this year in my case in support ...i dont think thats bad???) A decision has to be made?????
If a) they wont put money in or b) havnt got the money then facts is facts sell it put it up for sale?? if no one comes in then so be it BUT and its a BIG BUT RFL wants Championship to be proffesional and if we cant get the backers that the 5 mentioned above have got we really have got no where to go......I am really really fearful for the future and can we stop using the Leigh buzzword "building for the future"" i have heard that for the last 30 years of supporting Leigh...
Sorry for such a dour post but am really worried about the club i love!!!!!
C`mon lottery let me win the dosh to make a differance!!!!! ![]()
Not a ' dig ' here but as I've posted elsewhere , Of this £ 1,000 or thereabouts , how much of it has actually gone into the bank account at Leigh Centurions ?
70 K spent this weekend but not a single penny to Leigh
Championship Fans will contribute over one and a half a million pounds to Ryanair/BMI baby , Toulouse Olympic RL club and the bars and hotels of Toulouse for the next 3 seasons
Toulouse Olympic and their fans will contribute how much to the other Championship clubs and our towns over the next 3 seasons ?
One last thing as well , in France and Spain the local councils tend to be the biggest contributors to their local sports teams finances
The Toulouse local government pour several million pounds per season into the local RU team , if they do get the nod for SL they will no doubt support Olympic in there financially as well
Can you seriously see W1g4n Council tipping up 500 K a season to help us get into and stay in SL ?

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 |

But similarly, would the Toulouse local council pay for two clubs in Super League? |
