From what I've seen of Salford they will be too good for us, their No. 6, Robert Lui has always stood out for me.

I'll join you in that feeling Glow..

Loud and proud Leythers...

When we beat Salford in the CC last season, they were [size=1504th[/size in Sooper Dooper League! Mind you, they did have half a team out injured, and many of the rest got injured during the game!

Oh, and we've now signed most of those players, and they've replaced them with some good uns!

Salford for me, I'm afraid - I hope we can stay within a reasonable score of them though and set ourselves up for the intensity of the rest of the competition.

We've sold just over half our allocation of 800 so I would expect just over 1000. Our attendances at home really do puzzle me sometimes... Conspiracy.

Thats good for a Monday..

Every game is there to be won , all we have to do is go out and win it

So do we try to grind out a win ? , or just go for their throat from the off ?

Why have you only been given 800 when the south stand holds over 2k

From the off

Leigh who dares wins

At home I always expect us to win , for the throat for me

Play smart/complete the sets/no penalties...<<< Boring....Off the cuff! and rip em another..

Because our entire fan base consists of mostly the Salford lad's club and a few drunken nutters who we have to pay to get them in.

Salford fans have bought over 500 already so should see 1000 away fans for the first time this season, sales at our end are very strong also so will be a great atmosphere

Salford's away following has always been excellent, compared to their home attendances (against us).

icon_smile.gif Is that like the 1000 Fev fans you said were coming over?

They'll easily be 1,000+ of us there on Saturday. Most people don't pre-purchase ticket and just pay on the day.

Odd that over 50% of our last reported home attendance will be in the away end...

Not really, we took 150% our average gate to Wire last year. Your floaters will have been saving for this week, easier to get to and a better craic

Good luck against Salford - hope you can get the result

I hope you win just to send the Mad Doctor off on another Twitter rant why everything is Nigel Wood's fault.

See ya next week Dave.

That wont happen as he's at Leigh next season

Hopefully the inclusion of Acton today doesn't cost us the game.

Lay you 3/1 Maurice

Well done Leigh great result!

I take back all I said about Acton. He is a liability. It did look like he'd made strides towards getting his discipline in order, but, really, he has loads to learn yet. Not at all ready for the big matches, especially against SL sides.

Thanks.

It was a great result and nearly a flawless performance. Mitch Brown lookd very much a great player. Higson was fantastic.

All credit goes to everyone, especially Derek B because his buys are paying off so far.
