Sorry to interupt but on the subject of Peter Kay(e)'s LSV exclusive that next season Leigh will be playing home games in Atherton, well it will not be at Atherton Colleries AFC and you can take that as official.
Peter failed to check if the pitch, actually conforms to the RFL minimum size requirements. A glaring error.
It does not. It is officially short, unless he is including the fences at both ends as the actual Try dead ball line.
Other than that, and I having far to much time on my hands, it was not a bad effort for him.

Thats an interesting find H, but my comment to Monty involves the LSV, not the club. Although the two do go together.

Until the recent development at Fev's ground their pitch was by some distance shorter than the official minimum (although despite rumours to the contrary virtually maximum width) and I believe there are several other grounds that don't meet the supposed minimum dimensions either (including that of at least 1 SL club) so I doubt what you say can be taken as any sort of proof that Atherton couldn't be used.

| Without wishing to over-simplify the problem between Centurions and the LSV, it needs all parties to get round a table and thrash out the issues. It's certainly been done before, to my knowledge.
The idea of a major stadium in Leigh, not being used by the local professional rugby club, is too ridiculous to contemplate! It won't be allowed to happen.

Correct, and if every counsellor with a Leigh ward do not move heaven and earth to stop it happening, then they should all be turfed out of office at the very next opportunity. And that goes for the MP as well. And Burnham can do one as Mayor of Greater Manchester, and President of the RFL, plus whatever other pointless titles he has accumulated!

Possibly Andy Burnham is assisting on making sure something that goes through includes the club.
Lets not make hasty assumptions, until we see the full picture.
DB is expressing his own opinions in that statement,but knows more than what he states.

| There could be news next week.
On Rugby League Extra tonight - Keith (Chairman of L.I.S.A.) was on and he was stressing the point - A. Burnham, J. Platt etc. with regards to the L.S.V.
One of the presenters stated that A. Burnham was the guest next week (6 PM Thursday on GMR) and he should ring and ask him.
I have a feeling that Keith will do just that as he came across very passionately about this very subject.
For those who didn't know there is a L.I.S.A. meeting on Wednesday at 7 PM in the LSV boardroom and it is open to non L.I.S.A. members.
Hope this is helpful

We just need to seperate the LSV from the Club.. The LSV is the whole village, not just the stadium. A bid was placed to buy the stadium £65M, refused as in buy all or nowt as the council cant afford the LSV. Its not running at a loss its just something they can't afford to run.
Hence there is a new deal on the table,which includes the club and thats me not going any further.
