| Why Fax? Why not Widnes (who have been royally screwed all round??) And, of course, why not us?
Just for once, Andy Burnham's position won't help Leigh... as the Secretary of State, it would be improper for him to write a motion appealing against the ruling of a sport's NGB. But, given those circumstances, if we find the names of the MPs on the motion, we should write to them asking to add Leyth onto the list, and copy the letter to andy acknowledging his unfortunate conflict of interest in the matter.

Black Backgrounds/Gonzo the Great.gif you may think I'm an idiot, but it's nice to know I've been judged by my peers.:Black Backgrounds/Gonzo the Great.gif |

| Even though its what all of us were thinking at the time? you or the majority didn't know what went on behind the scenes on the lead up to that farce of a SL application fiasco, i'm only sorry the club can't/won't reveal the whole sorry tale and show up te RFL for what it really is?
theres a time for politics and a time for saying how it is, all this political correct bollox is just bull, even the widnes chairman said the same thing on boots n all as Rowley did, but was he crucufied by their teams fans? was he blood hell, if Rowley had crawled would we now be in SL? I think not so did it do any harm? only in the petty minds of some on here.
It's rugby not politics leave that to the politicians, me I prefer straight talking, not going all round the houses to call a spade a spade.

Fax's last 3 home crowdsboth should be getting bigger crowds, albeit for different reasons. Widnes's crowds puts us all to shame.'"
Half our problem is that we're in spitting distance of Leeds/ Bradford and Huddersfield which is where most of the support went when we got relegated.

..and that, ladies and gentlemen, is why we're not in Superleague.
I rest my case, your honour.

| I can't understand folk swapping their support for other clubs but can't say I have come across any. There are many who's next generation went elsewhere because the one before stopped, but thats different.
Giving up and losing interest is one thing but anyone who gives up on their club and then chooses another is nowt but a 5hithouse in my opinion, and I dont want them stood next to me anyway.
If Leigh packed up I'd have to get my kick from East or Miners becuase I'd sooner let the wife drag me round the Trafford Centre for the afternoon than support another club.

Bit of a broad statement is that.
