Quote: welshcenturian "The branding for the Leigh Centurian is completely wrong anyway, the Roman soldier on the badge is a legionary. The centurian wears a completely different head dress, we cant even get that right.'"


Sorry - I'm a bit confused here. Do you like the name, but think we should have a more historically accurate logo......and to spell the name wrong??

Or is that the Welsh spelling of Centurion??

First i dont like the name, and yes i got the spelling wrong, that probably shows how much of an inpact it has.

What iam saying is that we keep going on about the past (80s)when we actually won something. Lets either remove the logo because its cr**p and wrong or go back to just Leigh,sign on John Woods and charge 20p to get in.

Its a real yawn this debate......its not as if the club is called Centurions instead of Leigh. We are called Leigh Centurions - the centurions bit being something I didn't like at the start but I am used to it now. No point changing it it just for change sake. To some we are Leigh Rugby club still, and you can chant the name Leigh as we always did, because believe it or not you don't have to try to chant/sing Cen-tur-ions ( icon_wink.gif ). To others we maybe Centurions, or Leigh Centurions, or whatever.
Changing the name back to owden days won't change anything - we just have something less to use for marketing purposes (if we did market the club). There's nowt wrong with pushing the "Leigh RL" and "Centurions" to give flexibility when targeting new/old fans.
I prefer to look forward not backwards all the time. Same with cherry and white hoops - it gives little scope for selling more merchandise, and the town crest is just that (its not the clubs own identity which having our own badge represents).

I must admit though i did by the replica shirt from the 80s.
