Quote: maurice "I now believe we should rebrand as Wigan and Leigh at the LSV RLFC, and play friendlies every week with no points at stake. Goal kicks should be optional and if one team is winning easily then you can pick their two best players to swap shirts during the game.
That'll pack em in.'"



I'd just like to know how you got to see the proposals for next season's Co-operative Championship so soon? They only came out yesterday! icon_wink.gif

Quote: leytherjay "Cherry pick.........that's what we need to do to finish our squad - get the best released U23`s that the SL clubs are offloading (we will have a U23`s ourselves I believe next season).
These released young lads will want to go to a lower league club before walking away from the game so lets fill our 1st team and reserves with the best that we can.....their loss is our gain and could be the making of this club for the future as I think they will count as Leigh trained players if they are under 21.
A lot of VERY good quality players are coming on the market.'"

I TOTALLY AGREE eusa_clap.gif eusa_clap.gif eusa_clap.gif eusa_clap.gif eusa_clap.gif ,this is a very true post , ive been saying this for a few weeks now , there is no panic needed about Twinning , it wont happen at Leigh , i have faith in Trevor B , Paul R , and Keith Freer , they wont allow it .

As you say Jay , next season there will be many talented youngsters coming on the Market , i would love to see Lewis Tierney , and George Williams in Leigh shirts in the future , probably wont happen , but other talented lads will prefer playing for us , rather than going to Amatuer Rugby , so lets stop all the panicking we may have a couple of good young lads in mind already .

How many fans had seen or heard of Matty Russell , this time last season , till Paul R mentioned him at a LISA meeting ?

Most of the RL world were expecting Matty Russell to be the next Tomkins.

He is staying in Super League with Widnes, as is Joe Mellor.

Semmingly all SL clubs except Salford have now formed "partnerships" with Championship clubs some have two.
Wigan have partnered with Leigh and South Wales Scorpions. Wolves with Swinton.
This is to allow SL players not eligible for the SL Under 19 and not selected for the 1st team to be available to the partnership and is a step further from the loan/dual registration that has operated.
Now Championship clubs will only be able to receive players on dual registration from their partner club. clubs not in partnerships will only be able to take players on loan. However loans will still be available to all Championship clubs. Clubs can have any amount of dual registered players but i understand that its not been decided how many can play in a team i believe 4,5 or 6 are the options.
Will it work not sure, benefits to Champioship clubs dual registration will cost nothing, loans will.

Quote: DemonUK "Where does it say Leigh and wigan have partnered.

I hope this is not true because if the SL teams are getting to the so called good teams of our league it will kill our sport all together as i see our league as the only league not to be messed with by the RFL and its the best league by far IMO. Because if this does happen we will be next then fax etc and our dreams of promotion will never happen as it will be shut off forever as the RFL and the SL teams will have everything they need then us being feeder clubs.I doubt it is true though as why would you be wanting SL if you were going to become wigans feeder team? Does'nt make much sense to me.

But can the CC clubs all afford the £50-£60 K to run these teams?

Has anyone mentioned the coaching staff that will come with this feeder league from the SL team? Who has the final say who plays? How much input does the parents' clubs coach have? Will the club be able to get a franchise , being a feeder club. After all it was the SL clubs that VOTED to do away with the junior teams.

Nonsense. Well at least as far as Leigh are concerned.

I Think you will find the deal has been done with Wigan I expect to see 7 or 8 Wigan players in our under 23s team for next season
I do not think the C.E.O and the board of Directors of the Leigh realise the past History between both clubs
This is what makes a game between Leigh and Wigan so special the feud between both clubs has existed for many years and now the CEO (who is not a Leyther ) and the board want to destroy all this and tie us up with Wigan
The only club that will benefit from this move is Wigan as Leigh’s fewer than 23s will have to make way for the Wigan Players hence weakening Leigh for the future
Why do we need to tie up with Wigan?
If this happens another season ticket gone

Why isn't the club putting out a statement telling us exactly where they stand on the matter .I know they said at the forum meeting it wasn't going to happen but all this has come out since and I think the fans would want to know .
