Yeah, I just can't get over the fact that back in 1981 we lost five league games. I still lose sleep about it.

Oh the bitterness.
How would you know we think it was only invented in 1988? You haven't even reached 1988 in Leigh! You've only just found out about electricity. And I for one, am quite surprised Wigan council are letting you use it!

No we wouldn't, if you remember, Big Dave had already paid your lot off so that if you got promoted, you wouldn't accept promotion!

Hark at the one from Humble land... Leigh might not be the best place but come on you myopic Pies ..... You lot live in W*ga* twinned with Islamabad.

You are right, Leigh isn't the best place. Every time I visit Leigh I feel like Nicholas lyndhurst in goodnight sweetheart.

Well the last bit is right.
A mate of mine spotted a Chinese plate in one and paid £2 for it about 6 months ago.
He sold it on E Bay a week later for £6000.
He told me it was donated to the shop by someone from Standish who thought Leigh was an ideal dumping ground for tat.

Check the Leythers out having a jealous pop about our town. Ha, Leigh = one of the worst places i have ever been to. Im not saying it's rough but the window cleaners go round with a sander and you have to wipe your feet to leave the houses up there.
What a dump.
All bitterness because we stuffed them again and jealous of the greatest team in history.
And that IS FACT. THE GREATEST TEAM IN HISTORY. Whereas Leigh will always be Wigan's bitch.

| "GET LEIGH OUT OF WIGAN"
Love it. So, your admitting you ARE in Wigan then? But yet you hate Wigan, think we are inbreds and like our sisters? Leythers are more confused than scooby doo. Your a village in our town, shoved out into the Suberbs because no one wants anything to do with you. A run down sewage pit that Wigan council gave up on in the 70s.

Thing is though, We have some bad areas and Leigh is just one big bad area full of dingles and cottagers.
