Over 50 years of pain,pleasure,frustration,joy,heartache and ecstasy that supporting Leigh has given me but I would not swop it.:

Because you White rose sheep lovers helped each other out,Batley 6 points from Fax and Fev is a bit fishy to me,infact stinks to high heaven.

As a Cougar fan I have to say its wrong you or anyother club should be relegated even though finishing above Toulouse its a disgrace that the RFL suggested the idea and just as bad the clubs actually accepted it.

I think although maybe wrong all clubs agreed it on the basis folk thinking it wont be us syndrome.

Hopefully Cougars will get promoted but it sticks in my throat the fact you have been screwed.

If we do not get promoted then I look forward to seeing you at your ground at at ours.

Its a sad day for yourselves but clubs have to wake up to the fact the rfl have no interest in fairness.

I wish you well.

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg



Quote: Leeeigh Leeeigh "Would you go to France every other week to follow?.......we went to Celtic last season and our support was poor and that was only 1 game long distance.
Depending on lots of derbies to prop up our attendances is wrong. We want lots of Leigh fans at the LSV, not hoping Widnes type clubs can boost our attendances. I would walk away from the game if we just settle for being a small town northern part time sport again.
Also yes Toulouse does make a good weekend away, and kind of makes a change to the norm Good reply RFLs expansionist ..............Every board should have one..........oh we have more than 1 of the apologists........ icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

Leigh Rugby is for life not just for Christmas.:Black Backgrounds/Dr. Bunsen Honeydew.gif



Well the main problem was we have been cr@p in the middle part of the season, without experienced or quality coaching and not enough strength in depth especially at halfback.
We can't even blame the bonus point if it hadn't been introduced we definitely would have been 2nd from bottom.
Yes results of other clubs have been iffy, we simply needed to win games such as gateshed and Hallifix and we didn't.

Never mind hopefully we will be better next season role on a proper coach and some more good players. Lets take the div by storm and win the rail cup, a good run in the challange cup and trash some of those teams that are laughing now. We will be back icon_biggrin.gif

Similar story....

Look at Super League 2006.....

Wakefield 28 10 0 18 -126 20
Castleford 28 9 1 18 -393 19
Catalans 28 8 0 20 -293 16

We were relegated at the expense of the french. It's not right, but take it on the chin and you bounce back!

Again don't have a clue what you rave on about sometimes.....one minute you accuse me of having different guises on here, and the next you consistently post things like this in reply to my posts.....all because I put differing opinion across.
I say what I want and believe is right, and as long as I don't offend anybody thats all what matters. Afterall its a message board where it is natural to have differing opinions, and makes the board more interesting than the discussion or sometimes rants going the one way.

Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend. -Albert Camus:46524.jpg



As another Cougars fan I can only sympathize with what has happened to Leigh today.

Many years ago we won what is now called the Championship and were denied a place in Super League because the RFL wanted London there.

Being relegated not on merit but because of where you come from is plain wrong and in my opinion borderline racist.

If it's any consellation I hope Cougars go on to win the playoffs and get promoted because I feel Leigh next season will dominate Championship 1 next season even more tham Dewsbury have this.

Back the bid - not back it until the going gets tough. WTID:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40663.png



Exact same thing happened with Widnes when we finished above Catalans. The whole system is a joke and i feel sorry for your club and fans and hope you bounce back next year.
