I disagree with your opinion that Bell is to good for Leigh , for me Leigh are worthy of any great player , in the past John Woods , and Alex Murphy ,and had in Harry Pinner one of the best 13s ever to grace the game .
James Bell is a very modest guy , I have spoken to him a couple of times , in Pennington Hall Park , he is glad to be playing at Leigh ,and I feel an offer us so much , I’d love to see Dan Norman sign for us as well,hopefully James will be fit enough to feature on Friday night for us .

I am not trying to be disrespectful to Leigh's great traditions, but we have to be honest about our place in the food chain. Leigh are currently somewhere between 10th and 15th best Rugby clubs in the Country (including 2 French Teams). St Helens are the number one team, that incorporates a shed load of players of various abilities.

If a young John Woods was at Leigh now, I can guarantee he would be playing for Wigan, Saints, or Warrington next season.

Leigh have seen some great players, but they always appear at the twilight of their career - Tommy Martyn, Sir Harry Pinner, Micky Highham and Fuifui Moimoi. The days of paying big money for Mike Ford, David Stephenson et al have gone. Leigh depend on young career aspiring players or bad boy Aussies, with drug, drink, gambling or sexual peccadilloes and a desire to get away from the glare of the Aussie media.

Not sure what your point is?
Mine was the fact that despite a good draw in the cup this forum has become so toxic that very few people post.
Not aware of a rule that you can only have an opinion based on the volume of posts., (full stop comma to keep things uniformed)

Good luck with your 5th post.

Bell injured.

How do I report inappropriate posts

OK you can count, now can you sling your bloody hook.

Site admin acted on this.
Let’s clean this forum up and play nice like we always did.

So what did site admin do?

It will became apparent soon I’d say

Looks like they removed the problem.

Looks like a large enough group of members said "enough is enough" and complained independently, prompting the site moderators to take action.

Good to see.
Hopefully some of the old regulars will now return and we can see more informed discussion rather than the petulant cynical comments which ruined this forum.
