I did hear a story, from a very good source at Fax that Alex Brown turned down a £18k signing on fee with them to join you boys for more money, so hopefully KPMG won't come a knocking.'"
Add to that Barlow not taking a pay cut to join them, Leigh must have spent a lot of money for this season. I guess that is who Mark Aston was having a pop at when he mentioned about teams putting all their eggs in one basket.
Anyway Im going to go for a Batley shock in this one as Leigh seem to have problems with in fighting and also havnt really set the world alight pre-season against some poor teams.

| Hi Greg, I'll take that bet, how much?
The club is tighter than a Yorkshireman's wallet, and as for the finances - they are very healthy, ask the RFL, in fact with a bucket we could help pay your rent that a Halifax Town fan said you owe
This seasons build up has been the biggest in my lifetime, the plethora of new and previous sponsors has put us in a nice place and the lack of negativity coming from the towns Meldrews has been almost non existent.
Pauls got the armoury to win this war, and I cant wait!!
Remember season tickets are still on sale and equate to 3 FREE games per season together with a FREE under 16's season ticket for every adult/concession sold
Get down to the LSV early and enjoy the build up with the other passionate fans, the Legends bar will be something special on Sunday and those in will be in for a real treat
SIX DAYS TO GO

You love having a dig at Leigh,I don't think I have ever read anything positive about Leigh from you ,every year its the same old garbage.You just go on believing what you want and we will see who has the last laugh.
Leigh are in a much better position than we have been for some time and I'm confident we are doing more things right than wrong, we might not finish in the top 2 but I don't think we will be far off.

| Well Greg is obviously entitled to his opinions but his post this time is clearly a wind up and it seems to have suceeded.

I don't think you need to concern yourself with our finances pal.

| Batley will be a very tough game and I think it will be close.
They always give us a very hard game on our patch and its tough start for our new lads to gell in.
However I'm going for a Leigh win 24-16.

| I agree it will be close but I think our lads will get the win, I am not writing Batley off because they are a good side but its usually more towards the end of the season when they have won games against us as they get stronger as the season goes on, hopefully this year we will remain strong all through the season assisted by our larger than normal squad.
Come on lads cant wait for Sunday !!

| I agree with your point about visitors to this forum but Leigh will win comfortably on Sunday.
This squad of ours is far stronger than last season and Batley's isn't.
