I dont reguard myself as a disgrace , i left at full time , but didnt stay to clap the team , as i felt hurt , im still hurting , it will take time to heal , but like someone else said , players come and go fans are alwaysfans .

I once told the deluded Darren Abram , in 5 years when he was forgotten , i would still be a LEIGH FAN .

Im no better fan than anyone else , but no fan is better than me either ,i do my bit raise funds for the club , go home and away , and speak my mind whether im right or wrong ,its my oppinion,im a LEYTHER through and through , will be back next season , but i wont be preached to by anyone ,if i buy a season ticket and another fan doesnt ,im no better than him .

We have many wise philosophers , Socrates ,Plato , Andy Burnham , even the late Bernard Manning , who once said , a clever man is a man who wanders alone yet is never lonely as he keeps his own company , i apply this advice to life and feel it keeps me in good stead for what needs to be adrressed in life , so Cmon Leythers try to keep together , see you all next season , Charlie.

Well I was so gutted I wanted to leave but decided I had to clap the lads off for a great season so I did.

like frank, like all leythers was gutted, but i could not just turn my back and walk out of the lsv without showing my thanks to a great bunch of players, for what has been a great season. Yes all gutted at the performance, none morethan the players, best summed up by mick nanyn when i shook his hand, and i quote "that was " well yes it was, but also jamie ellis on his way off apologised, so i think i did the right thing and clapped them off, but if other people did not want to, then that is up to them akine.

To be honest does anyone care who left were and when?

The players and coach who are leaving don't care do they?

When will the penny drop with the likes of starbug,we play in a league that no one cares about,the media the public of leigh,the rfl,thats why 1800 people bothered to turn up.

It is the pointless league

Next year if we get a bad start the 2200 crowds we pulled would be a distance memory.

Fine people say you are either a supporter or not but still at the end of the day there as to be a reason to watch and not having a clear gateway to the highest competition you can play in is killing our game.

What have we got another 3 years twiddling thumbs in this level? Watching players who show any ability get whisked away or worse still watching a team full of loan players from super league and paying top dollar to watch reserves???

Two years time we will be pulling in 800-900 crowds as people will not pay the price we need to survive when the same costs or even cheaper in some super league clubsecause they can afford to reduce prices with tv money] to watch them during a season.

For every fan we lose its harder to replace with a brand new one as the super league exposure ensures the new fan heads to either wigan,saints or warrington as all are within a 15 min drive.

How do we address this? we can't afford to slash prices even more as we only have a pittyful amount of home games.

Imagine turning around to man utd and saying you only have 11 homes a season and you have to make it pay? Impossible isn't it.

The rugby union world cup is on now as I type this and its on a par with the football world cup now as a sporting event,were are we at international level? playing a game at leigh v wales,now years ago when super league was invented if someone had said this is were our game would be now seeing as we were filling old traffold and wembley at international level they would have phoned for the white van to cart you off.And that sadly is the damage the rulers of our sport have done to the game were people couldn't be bothered to watch england v wales at leigh and that includes me.


It just does not feel like the sport I fell in love with 40 years ago


Please can we have our sport back?

He still leaves me cold i wouldnt give the guy any praise , , i dont like him personally , he has nothing tooffer our great game , as for the stats , i dont care .

You should be on the stage

Now now play nice - and he is correct

Yes he is , but our ' friend ' has just dissected somebody elses post with what he considers the ' truth ' , I could quite easily pick similar holes in our results of 2004

truth is in the eye of the beholder

how could we not do the treble with that team.in fact the only shocking bit about that season was we only won the GF in added time with a DG.

Im sure you could but in twenty years time 04 will be remebered as Leigh RLs greatest ever season bar 71 and 82.

2011 will rank alongside 2006 i.e we had the expensive oversees coach the high budget quallity squad won a mickey mouse cup but didnt show up when the going got tough and it really mattered.

The rest my friend like your tenure as a yes man on the board is history as they say
