First game was in 1967, and have been hooked since day 1. Now live in Vancouver, Canada but follow our team any way I can. “Up The Comics !”:17580.jpg

Well, maybe two weeks ago that was most likely. However I think that if we could just add a couple of very classy looking halfbacks before the 8s then.........
Seriously, it is a tall order but I honestly think that we will be in with a chance if we can tighten up our defence.

Realistically a Championship Club would have to win all Championship games (3) and beat two Super League teams to possibly be auto promoted or home advantage in the MPG,even that is not guaranteed as this scenario is based on two SL teams losing two games each and points difference being the factor.

Massive task ahead to reach the goal..

London coming second would be ideal as they will have a great chance to win their home games against SL opposition (thus aiding Leigh)

They will get hammered IMO. The bottom of Sl has got better this year and the top of the championship apart from arguably Leigh has got worse. There will be a lot of bigger scores than last year unfortunatley but if Leigh play their cards right they should be the team that gets the shot in the MPG so in a one off you just never know.

You obviously have not watched any of our (London) games this year?
We are a considerably better team than last season, maybe it's you lot that have gotten worse?

Plus we do not have an unlimited salary cap icon_wink.gif

Well it doesn't really mater were we finish after yesterday I am more convinced we will be playing championship rugby again, doesn't bear thinking about what Leeds will do to us . No leadership no creativity no idea granted the reff was very bad but still with that team we put out yesterday fev should of been well put to the sword... icon_mad.gif

Featherstone Rovers - Co-Operative Championship League Leaders and Champions 2011:



Can't see you having any joy in the middle 8 this year if you play like yesterday. You looked like a full time team that's been ripped apart and stuffed with "names" by a megalomaniac chairman who thinks the answer is still to throw money at the problem, struggling against a bunch of lads earning about £1.1M less than them.

The Super League teams will tear you a new one based on yesterday's performance.

You look decidedly unfit too.

I’ve been saying the similar all season, only thing different is we have also got worse.

No fitness issues imo, when a team has the possession and field position that Fev had they should win. We lacked direction around the ruck and that effected options out wide. We had the ball in the 20m area 4 times in the first half, we scored one, had one disallowed and Higsons trailing leg went into touch in scoring - which he should have done.
Fev made very small yards going forward due to huge defence - but they really stuck at their defensive gameplan and got away with it giving us few chances.

Lets not forget, we lost 2 players also to injury, meaning longer minutes for those who get spelled.

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



Playing half a game virtually with only 2 subs did effect us yesterday, still find it strange we have little cover in some places yet loaned out some more last week.

How are Hoppy and Hood (that sounds like a couple of cartoon characters)

Said the same myself, not only where we reduced to two subs but Higson was struggling after the warm up and Weston was barely able to walk at times when he came back on, hopefully just a dead leg.

I know having no second team means some may need to go out to gain match fitness, if all’s well but let’s be honest no one (other than perhaps Higham) has really been that fantastic that he must be in the team, Spencer could have played yesterday instead of either of the loanees, Pownall could have played on the wing if Higson was a doubt or for Kay who’s been a shadow of himself so far this season.

One other thing why have Armstrong and Worthington swapped over this season?
