Mines a pint... 'Hi-Ho Silver Lining' Headingley 05th October 2014.:1392.gif



Should be a good match on Friday with two decent teams on show.
We have hit a bit of form and have been putting some good scores in the last 4 games whilst staying relatively injury free although Aspinwall will be out and Spencer has gone back to Wigan.
Friday will be our second biggest test of the season as we face the Champions, it should also see our biggest gate of the season as this is the 'biggest' team to visit the LSV this year and certainly (in terms of successes recently) the best.
Local press says they've been hit with a flu bug and even Yere has being sick icon_eek.gif
Aston says everyone will all be fit for Friday in whats a telling few days for the Eagles with the visit to us and Fev visiting them on Thursday.

Should be a cracking match and gutted to be missing it (Wish they'd moved Hunslet or Doncaster to Fri night instead icon_lol.gif ), hopefully it will be on Leigh radio.

Leigh 26 Sheffield 16.

Sheffield's right side is the danger, Knowles, Armstrong and Taulpapa. Swinton actually kept QLT and Yere pretty quiet the other week. Green, Knowles and Hirst were outstanding in the back row. Finnigen and Goulden are going to have to be solid. Aspinwall will be a loss, I'd have started Hopkins at 13 but with Spencer back at Wigan he may be needed in the front row.

How do we know Spencer's been re-called by Wigan? He's not in their squad for the Catalans game this weekend.

Fair point.

But we would then get folk complaining that the end of the game would be past their bedtime! icon_wink.gif

7.30pm is a big rush on a Friday - home 6.30pm etc with the TV looking more attractive to many when a local SL derby is on. The lack of matchday experience has driven many fans away already. Rushing to the ground digesting your tea seems less appealing than a couple of beers in a lounge - USE THE MAIN BAR AS A FANS BAR BEFORE ITS TOO LATE.

I am a 'if we are to do then 8pm it must be'.

[i:5a56um9q]Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.[/i:5a56um9q] [b:5a56um9q]George Orwell [/b:5a56um9q] [i:5a56um9q]There are none so blind as those who will not see.

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg



Finish work in Stone at 5 so m6 permitting planning to be in Legends for about 6.30ish. May do the quiz this week. Think they also have a draw for the first 50 in there too. Hope they are collecting phone number and email addresses of all who fill in the entry forms.

Dawn is coming the opposite way working in accrington and picking up my daughter so hopefullywe will all make it.

I can't wait. My first home game since I can't remember, I havn't been in the Wren yet.
Should be a tight game, decent crowd on too.
Then get home and watch the SL game with a glass of red.
Then up at 5 to go to work.

I would just add that Leigh is not as safe a town as it used to be when your walking the streets at 10pm on a Friday night when you get to my age.

However your quite correct about the attraction of the lounge and Leighlife ont wireless, warm and cosy on a winter night with a couple of quality ales to enhance my enjoyment of the commentary icon_thumb.gif

Mo my eyesight gets worse every week icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif do i deserve a role in the Clique ?

I also know its not yourself or folk like you the club needs to attract , i know like myself you are a converted Die-hard ,we need new blood as well as some of the lapsed fans returning , i know you was an original LISA founder , and i applaud you for that eusa_clap.gif , i also know people movee on with their lives and cant devote the time and effort to the club they used to , my own health is not good at the moment , attending games is sometimes hard for me , but not to turn up would be much harder .

As i have said i know mi owd Dad would love to still be watching , he would have loved the LSV .
