| Actually Alex (and I have it on video) The Wigan Ch exec Mr Hogan said at the LSV after the game V Wigan 'We will do all in our power to assist you (Leigh) in your quest for SuperLeague, as the contest needs more teams from this side of the hills and what better team than our nearest neighbours', so the first time we ask for help we get refused, ohh and the agreement was 'Strongest team avilable' so get off the high horse and admit Wigan have not done what they said they would.
I personally am thankfull that Wigan have agreed to play the three games and can understand why they sent 'the kids' but stop trying to defend the undefensible, it was a shabby trick to play on your own speccies full stop.

Just because we're not sending Davies on loan to you doesn't mean we're not helping you. He's one of our best prospects and we want to put him in the best environment for the best possible deal and we don't think that is Leigh, so why should we lose out to help you whom we have no ties with what so ever? Just because you've lost out on this occaision doesn't mean we're going back on our intentions. In fact, I know a player in our reserves who is in talks with you and as long as the player and Wigan are satisfied with agreements then it will go ahead and that will be ''our way of assisting you getting into Super League.'' You can't expect us to just hand you things on a plate! We obviously have to benefit from agreements too, afterall it's a business as well as a Rugby club.
In regards to the ''shabby trick'' to play on our speccies. They announced the team days in advance of the game so that spectators we're able to see what they were about to pay for and then make their own decision whether to go to the game or not. I saw the team and made the decision not to pay the £14.00 to go the the fixture. How is that a shabby trick?
You should just be thankful Wigan give you anything at all.

| All good young players for us who I hope will be in the first time in the future, Mitchell catched the eye of a few first team players in pre season an is tipped to do well (Morley and Joey Johns I think), they will score a few tries for you lot.

| 3 good players who I think will assist us well this term. Mcartney especially is a decent player and a great acquisition. We need to continue building on our platform and get behind the team.

| As our extremely intelectual Pie Eater says these massive SL clubs dictate the way we should be run after all its Super League not RL anymore is it. Thanks for your comments why don't you save them for expansion and all other things that will benefit the game and leave us small clubs to die quietly.

I think you'll find Wigan (''A massive SL club'') are helping Widnes by loaning them Ben Davies and at the same time we're benefiting by allowing him to have game time. That's an example of how pathetic and wrong the above post is.
We'll be doing similar agreements with Leigh to as long as the deal is right for both clubs and player.

Dont know how this is going to benefit Ben when the chances of 1st team rugby are going to be slim.'"
Sorry Dave, I don't think he'd go to Widnes to play in the reserves, he's been doing that for the past 2 years at Wigan. He'll go there for first team football and will get it ahead of Widnes' props, he's better than their young props.

| stop being so 'holier than thou' Alex the promises were all coming from the Wigan camp (for which Leigh have publically thanked the Wigan club for) and they have not delivered on those promises, you are obviously hardened to the tricks being played by them on your speccies, or are you so thick skinned as to think that less of your speccies would have travelled if they had known before the tickets went on sale that the agreement had been broken and that Wigan were sending a youth team (if that isnt so I look forwad to seeing 1500 of your speccies at Orrell next week.)
Pardon me for not going down on my knees and praying to the sun god that the mighty SL club had agreed to play such unworthy opponents but If you had bothered to read what I wrote I actually said I was thankfull that Wigan had sent a team at all so the last line in your post in reply to me just shows arrogance personified and unfortunately typical of some SL spectators, something which I hoped was above you, and you should know by now im not usually Wigan RFC basher
I look forward to the two club working closer but the initial signs don't look good.
Dave Wigan will not allow Davies to play reserve team football at Widnes, Wigan insist all their loan signings (forget the dual contract malarky things have not changed that much) be given first team football that is their club policy - and rightly so IMO they will learn nothing from playing in a lesser comp than they already do.
