I wasnt to worried before todays game really thought we would win but now i am very worried hope we can pick our game up

Don't you know we don't need fair weather fans in Leigh. Also, didn't you know this is a sense-free zone and useful insights like that aren't at all welcome.

oh ok you got me .....?????
how could i ever be a loyal fan if i have only commented on the forum this year???

Didnt know that being on the leigh forum was a contractual obligation and that i wasnt a TRUE fan until i had??????????????

I know what i and my father have done for the past 30plus and fifty plus years and dont have to justify it to you?!?!?!??!!?!?

am a WORRIED loyal fan not a rose tinted one!!!
as i have said we are in dire straights......but i guess and hope that you all realise that on here?!?!?!?

IMHO and I did go today, we played a lot better then the last game, we looked like scoring a few times, however our defence out wide was poor, not Stanton he was excellant except for when he was left marking three players. Missed JT and AJ today with them in at second row, I dont think Haven would have beat us out wide.
BIG BIG mistake going with 3 props on the bench as when Alstead went off after about 20 mins ,Morty got shoved on the wing and Durbin came on at FB, this and the clown, Childs ,also were facters in the defeat.
I was happier with the proformance today. Wish we could have hung on for the point I THINK WE DERSERVED IT

aye. some people need to look at a) the league table 2)our remaining fixtures 3) our 'current' form.

so what the hell is the decision to play jt in reserves(who was excellent) and take 3 props??????

surely the coach is at blame for that??????

The performance was better but still not good enough. We got drawn the short straw with injuries to both Stanton and Alstead which meant we had Durbin at fullback, McConnell in the centres, Nanyn on the wing and Mort on the other wing. To get beat by the same move 3/4 times is criminal though, we knew the pace of Calvert so why let the centres get on the outside and get the pass to him? We applied some good pressure for about 20 minutes in the second half and we managed to get back into the game but our discipline and a few dodgy decisions in the first half came back to haunt us.

All irrelevant IMO I don`t know you and don`t particular care...... You could well be one of the many people who frequent these boards with multi- aliases.......So Jog On.... I`ll be watching my home town team in whatever comp that they`ll end up, that does n`t mean I`ll be totally happy about that fact but I certainly won`t WHINE my A£se off.....
Ps my GGGF says you`re spouting bollo$$s as well and he did watch them...........

We really don't know how to take advantage of a winning position - fantastic try from Watson to pull us level at 22-22 but, after umpteen consecutive sets of six, we didn't have the quality to 'turn the screw'; 'Haven went up the other end and the rest is history.

For a 20 minute spell in the second half, we were superb. Problem is, that has to be maintained over the other hour as well and, to be quite honest, performances don't matter now - it's all about the results.

Get yourselves to 'Fax, get behind the lads (as the Leigh speccies did admirably today) and you never know, we might achieve the impossible.

Best dust off the Great Escape theme.

Good we agree on one thing.

I also grew up watching those players so Your point being??????????

No Shi^ sherlock


Well done but rather than whining why don`t you realise that we`ve no god given right to be successful in this tier of RL..... We had a pretty good run from 2001 -2005...... as you say you`ve been watching for many a year you`ll be pretty aware of some lean years previously............ its just history repeating itself... take the good with the bad and move on...


Yes you`re entitled to your opinion as I am..... so we`ll agree to disagree.....Not too bothered what the majority opinion is as well, this could be diluted by folks trolling or

To tell the truth this is the bit that I think you will find annoys most fans like me and possibly Bart

We dont watch through rose tinted specs , we fully understand that things are not good and see that our performances are not of the acceptable quality

BUT the point is it is OUR team good or bad

Whinging and moaning will not help one iota

What is needed is the support of all the fans of the club , just as our neighbours did a couple of years ago in their hour of need

Constant attacks on the players , coaching staff and owners will not improve anything

Questions can be asked when our status as a Championship club has been secured

Till that time I will not overly critizise anybody at the club , once that point has passed , well that is another matter

The pies found themselves faced with what was, for them, an unthinkable prospect.

Leigh being relegated from this division is hardly that - a good deal of fans were predicting this as a genuine possibility at the start of the season - your good self included I think, starbug.

I can't see the fans flocking back because we've got the worst side in over a decade that are finally in the mire many saw coming.

There might be a handful more who turn up because there's a meaningful fixture but that's about it. There'll probably be more who'll stay away.

How much TV money do we stand to lose if we do go down?

Relegation kills the club, but is that a bad thing.
It will allow more new clubs into RL and put an end to our annual disappointments and let downs. East and Miners could fill the void, and Wire arent too far away for the odd game.
