| If that fake account is being run by someone from Leigh, they need to give their head a wobble.
Also - we haven't signed a replacement for Dixon in the 8s. Tickle won't play second row

I do apologise for talking bo77ocks then. My point was that the club already seem to have moved to bring in replacements as there is a doubt as to how much stomach these players will have for the fight ahead.

As you say not managed to shut it down. They also link to it on the official twitter. So it is officially fake but unofficially, who knows?

Fair point. Personally, I wouldn't like to see Worthington dropped, even if he is moving on. He's been our best centre this year, since moving to left side.

And there's no questioning his commitment - he gives nothing less than 100%, every game. Maybe it's all down to how these players conduct themselves, after they've signed? Although they will have to learn quickly, how to conduct themselves - after all, they are joining a club with very high moral and ethical values! ![Wink icon_wink.gif](images/smilies//icon_wink.gif)

| Wouldn't have thought it was standard protocol to advertise oneself for another club whilst still under contract.

Ironically, it would not be for the first time in his Leigh career either.
It is an important time. We need everyone fully focused or they may as well not be around.

| There seems to be so much concern about what PR and Toronto are doing and who is taking the Canadian Dollar? Personally I don't care, we are Lucky to have a guy like Derek in charge who will just replace them with better players ,which in most cases he has already done, have we missed the likes of Beswick,Emmitt, Pownall,and co, a resounding NO,will we miss Kay,Dixon, and Worthington if he goes ,again a resounding NO,we will move on ,progress , develope, and improve,nobody can stop the Centurions Juggernaut,let the Toronto Train move on,when they arrive we could be separated by 2 divisions,I'm more concerned about what is happening now, when we can attract guys like Tickle, Dawson, Maria,and Mitch Brown,added to the quality squad we already have,I for one won't miss the Toronto bound players, they would struggle to get into our team anyway.Bon Voyage is my message. ![Thumbs up icon_thumb.gif](images/smilies//icon_thumb.gif)

| In addition to Charlie's post, Richard Whiting has been solid , but if we are all honest he hasn't actually set the championship on fire.
He is coming to the end of his career but will still be a good signing for any League 1 side for 12 months. So Toronto will get some mileage out of him.

| My concern was having them on the field come the 8's. Those questions have been more than answered.Bring it on. ![Thumbs up icon_thumb.gif](images/smilies//icon_thumb.gif)

Not played for a fair few weeks and recently had an operation on his hand and pins put into his fingers.
Not sure if he will be able to play any further part this season unfortunately.
Would be a good option to have though if he recovers in time due to his versatility.
