Why would they adopt a bust and boom strategy and change it short term due to a one year increase in income. Thats Leighs downfall. You rolled the dice and didn't get a double 6 and will now pay the price.

Rubbish, It got us into SL. Poor management got us the bust.

Have you not stopped rubbing your hands, or whatever, since Sunday ??
We have no idea what our situation will be either for the rest of this season or next - so you sure as hell don't
Never write off the Leythers

| Im not suggesting its the end and wouldn't want that for anyone, but I suspect the gamble you played this year will push the club back for years as you try to recover.
To be fair i've been rubbing my hands all season watching the Leigh roller coaster. I thought it was a Toronto Leigh 1-2 in either order with the rest fighting for the other 2 positions.

You and me both - said at the beginning of the season it was going to be quite boring waiting for the M8s to kick in
Sport never ceases to surprise me - even at my elderly age
Anyhooose, it is what it is - onwards and upwards, LTID

| I just hope we have a competative team and don't become another Bradford. Signing them Aussies when we are not guarenteed a top 4 spot was a ridiculous bit of management!
We were a better team when we had Leigh lads playing in our ranks, time to go local again me thinks.

IF we beat Rochdale, I doubt very much we would go full time. It should be the aim but I don't think our club are ready for it yet.

Then we need something in place to support that structure.

As I have said nowt surprises or shocks me, personally I've had a bad month and been badly letdown by some so called friends,now in sport this happens, shows you what I know.
However in BOTH cases the Clown will bounce back,of that you can be certain, and I think Leigh Centurions will do the same.

I'm not about d**k measuing, I just think all the predictions I said will come true, and it really will be the start of a new era. Unless there is a minor miracal on Sunday, then we might have a new chairman, coach potentially (although I think Purtill should stay), a whole set of new players which isn't great and ultimately, a bank balance divided by 10!
How many games do we have remaining? I heard a rumour 12 players have found new clubs which would leave us without a team (I have no reference for it though, just word of mouth).
