Running a "full set of sides" should be a pre requisite to being part of SL, maybe with 12 months grace for any promoted side.

Leigh DO NOT have a reserve team. They were erroneously entered in that set-up by people with IQs only slightly higher than yours. Leigh’s lack of reserve team has an impeccable record of fixture fulfillment.
Quote: No pain no gain "..... no academy….'"
Leigh had plans for a first class academy only for it to be kiboshed by the powers that shouldn’t be, for fear it would detract from the academies of, yeeesss, Wigan & Saints. But do go on…
Quote: No pain no gain "...no ladies team …'"
Leigh Leopards’ ladies team presently sit three points clear at the top of Women’s Super League Group 2 and have played one of their four matches to date this season at LSV.
Quote: No pain no gain "....and no pdrl team…'"
Leigh fans regularly see cross-field matches between Learning Difficulties teams during half time. Bongser feels it is only a matter of time before we have a wheelchair team.
Sorry No Brain, No Gain; if tha know’st neauwt, post neauwt.

They have a reserve team that hasn't fulfilled a fixture this season, no academy, no ladies team and no pdrl team. Salford are another side were all the funding is spent solely on the first team. If every team in the competition operated like this rugby league will cease to exist in the iong term.'"
I never mentioned anything about dropping any of the teams that run out of our club. It cost this club approx £300,000 a year according to MC to run the other teams at our club . I’d like to think that this new owner can cover these cost in the short term and still have a competitive team when and if we come back up into super league. Because without it we will forever be courting disaster and losing out on those quality players who will favour safer clubs to ply their trade , which will always have a knock on effect on our fan base as is seen at present, with less that 4000 fans included a decent contingent from Salford to our last home game , which if I’m honest is pathetic to say the club is battling relegation and needs their fans in its hr if need . The only way to build this club up is to have a terrific team running out at Belle Vue , anything less and fans will continue to drift away from our game , as is happening at our club now .

| Back into the game tonight I think to get the win Wakey need to drag the Wigan team into a bit of a scrappy dog fight and “old man” then in the pack.
The Wigan pack is probably the weakest part of their team so the lads really need to use their experience to bully them especially when they are missing the likes of Isa and Cooper who are their most combative and experienced enforces.
The main area of concern for Trinity I have is on the edges. Wigan are very big and athletic with pace to burn in the backs and if we let them get a roll on and give Smith time and space to boss the game then I do worry that the likes of Field, French, Wardle, King, Miski and Marshall could exploit Trinity’s lack of pace.
Makes for an intriguing clash of styles.

| Can I say I thought this would be the game to ascertain if our coach has turned the corner and I will admit he has. I don’t know who provided the money to bring over Fifita and sign Gale (who I thought was past his best) but thank you we have a chance.
If we can continue against Huddersfield and draw them into the relegation struggle.

Well done Scarlet.
I agree.

I agree with every word of this.
I thought we'd struggle to win a game all year. How delighted am I to say I was wrong (as I often am).
The turnaround has been remarkable so far. Momentum is huge.
Big shout out to Will Dagger. Another I appear to have got wrong. Albeit I wish we'd have been able to keep Hall and aquire Dagger
