As a player can only play for one of us in the cup I would be surprised if you were given any DR players. Spencer for example played for us last week so would be needed for the cup in case of injuries so can't see us letting him be cup tied. I would imagine all SL clubs will only allow players that are currently nowhere near first team reckoning to be used on DR in the cup.

Having said that, you've been doing alright fielding a team of youngsters these past few weeks! I suppose you could be looking at easing back some of your regulars from injury, and a game like this would probably be ideal for doing that? |

Wigan want Riddy and Brierley on loan and in return we can have Sam Tomkins and Pat Richards on DC, but Rowls told them they'd struggle to get into our starting 13.

What are the Ticket prices matt?'"
The thing that is holding them up is the BBC deciding which games to televise. Then wigan will chose and Leigh either agree or go to the RFL to decide. |

Yup.
We have also turned Josh Charnley down because he just isn't fast enough and Epalahame Lauaki because he's a bit too small for a prop.

The BBC have confirmed they're showing the HKR vs Saints game. |

So here is the question i would put to fans such as yourself.
If you put a good performance up against Wigan would this relight the flame and get you to watch Leigh more often again in the league ? |

According to the rugbyleagueontv website Sky have rights to a round 4 game too. If that is correct then we will have to wait until they have picked their game as well.
Edit - Sky have now decided not to bother until the QFs so we should get a decision soon hopefully |

I think I am going to have to come back from Hull for this one. Still reeling at missing the Fax/Wigan games last year!

Dont want to be negative,but cant see more than 7000 specs in total.This should see us make around £40k-£50k after VAT taken etc.so still not bad. Pies will not pay to watch a game they think they will win by 50pts plus. ased on normal league match prices]

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.

I said summat similar to my pie eytin' mates.....unless it's on the season ticket they don't want to know (as indicated by crowds for CC and play-off games in recent seasons).
Maybe we should be trying to persuade 'em to switch venues? This match would be a lock out if played at the LSV!! |
