| Welcome back Steve.
My daughter enjoyed it, as did both of my nephews.

This kind of response to a genuine concern epitomises the reason we are down to crowds of 1,300 IMO
I was talking to a bloke who had not been for a while after today's match. He won't be back, I can't blame him having hardly being on the edge of my seat all afternoon.
Budgiezila - How do you suggest we build up our gate over and above the 1,300 when we are serving up the Rugby League we do? Over to you old sport?
Why do some Leythers readily accept mediocrity?
It amazes me. No wonder we no longer dine at the top table.

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 |

Damn it, thats me not coming again then , loved Gazz's stuff as a youngster, had the album that one came from
Glam Rock has been criticised as ' not real music ' after the punk revolution, having grown up with it, I disagree, it was great fun, and thats what music should be IMO

I actually thought today was a really enjoyable game. Both sides gave it what for down the middle, there was a bit of biff and some quality tries scored. Even managed to hold my five year old's attention for quite long periods which is some going, believe me. Seen a LOT worse games over the years.

| Fair enough Matt, I respect your opinion.
For mine, It is the worse, most dull Rugby League I have seen down at Leigh for decades on end.
There you go, I will not turn my back however. It's my club.
But for attracting new or lapsed supporters? The very best of luck......

OH SHUT UP...DID I SAY THAT I THINK THAT WE PLAY FANTASTIC RUGBY ????!!!!
CAN YOU IMAGINE THE GOSSIP AROUND TOWN "HEY HAVE YOU BEEN WATCHING LEIGH CENTURIONS, THEY ARE LIKE THE HARLEM GLOBETROTTERS - IT'S SO EXCITING" !!!
Dream on Harold....since when are ANY sport's teams crowds based on how 'attractive they play' ???
Don't go watching Leigh then, JEEZ - what would folk like you be thinking if we were mid table in championship one.

This is the question your choosing to dodging. And It's Mr Rigby to you if you don't mind

| Bit tricky playing an expansive game without regular half backs and missing two first choice pack members.
I thought we dropped too much ball and made too many wrong choices and gave away a few needless penalties.
Having said that Haven gave it their best shot but looked a bit off the pace in the second half. In the first they seemed to get every bounce of the ball and 50/50 decisions.
Our team does have potential however and I honestly think we will be hard to beat when at full strength.

Please tell me Bart the last time we last played so much one man stuff consisting of relentless sets of five drives and a kick?

I can recollect more inept seasons than this one over the last 4 decades.
Over to you.
Or do you want expansive RL which results in losses?
We`ll come good as our injured players comeback IMO.

Wish I knew the answer, only Fev get gates of over 2K (except when they play us)
Must admit, didn't think we'd get oen of our lowest crowds of the season today, guess even some season ticket holders think twice about going at £16 for a ticket, and not many kids in Leigh are interested, it's cheap enough for them though.
