Speaking for me personally the following reasons suggest that our game will not be considered.
1)Because last season SKY turned down the chance of showing the Leigh v Leeds QF after it was 4th pick out of 4. They had the rights to two QFs but declined to cover that one. Why would either broadcaster now choose to show Leigh against a top SL side away from home when they wouldn't show them at home with a last four spot up for grabs.
2) HKR beat Saints in a close game yesterday and Saints are missing the spine of their team so the same could happen again.
3) Cas have already beaten Leeds in a tight game this year and that too is a local grudge match.
4) The BBC have only previously shown interest in SL v SL ties and turned down the option of Fev v Cas last year, also a local derby but with a more realistic chance of a shock result (as was proven).
5) SKY will take a risk on potential shocks but London v Fev is much more likely to see the SL side lose than our game.

Well,well, books in Leigh now, they really have moved on these last couple of years, electricity & gas next its rumoured. Last time I was there, (missionary work, delivering food parcels) they were using knives & forks as jewellery.

We cant send pies to Leigh, they need instruction books to help cope with the crust, buckets of 'gruel' only I'm afraid !!

How about if we take the crusts off first?

Some of you Pieyters need to realise you haven't beaten us since who knows when.
Leigh will provide the shock of the round and like other Leythers I expect us to win by between 6 and 10 points.
Now we are not always right but the only thing we are worried about is our lads being overconfident.

Tremendous stuff. You're bang on. We last beat you in 2009 when we won 32-0. That looks bad but we've only played you once since..

| The North Stand will need a deep clean after the Leythers have been.
Leigh get lots of money, get beaten easily and we move onto the next round.

| Would have been better at LSV, just hope you help our overdraft and can see you bringing back your injured lads for this
Over 2000 Leythers will be over to watch you wear our colours and remind you why you are pie eaters
Ps have never had as much respect for your club due to your local lads filling the jerseys with pride
Do we need to keep an eye out for your Ultras near our caravans
