Positive for us could be that Battye might now want to come back ???
(Harsh on London though)

Stadium is OK, but we differ greatly on the supporter issue. Even got abused (NOT banter) by mixed group in Leigh colours whilst walking to ground when we played Warrington, and they had no interest in the game cause Leigh were not playing.

Yeah I agree...I seem to recall they brought a fair few un-desirables down to Belle Vue the last time we played them ??

Me neither, I’ve had to order a large humble pie from the cake shop in Horbury, I’ll have to start dishing the pie out soon. To the Bradford supporters

Thats our first game sorted then .

Always found them to be a cracking bunch when they have visited BV. Never a moments problem.

Without doubt, SL don't even attempt to hide their contempt for us on this one.

I'm OK with that, not being an expansionist I see Leigh as a good earner. To me, they bring on a good day eight hundred £20 notes approx or 16k. That's a lot more than all but Bradford and Fev would bring and we will need it desperately despite what the forum dreamers believe.

Also unlike Fev and Bradford they are less likely to be looking at the same players like us in terms of local talent.

Yes, and if true to form, it’ll be at their place. I’m sure Leigh will be wiser and better prepared for SL, this time round. Perhaps they’ll see this as a potential home banker, and a little over confident.

Just pleased that it's not Bradford, it would have been a monumental "queue jump" had they got the nod.
Leigh are a solid club, excellent facilities and they will travel in good number.

Welcome aboard.

Think any wakefied fan happy with this are not thinking things through as this increases our chances of relagation ourselves leigh will not be pushovers and wd havent exactly strengthened

As a club, despite our patch season (and half of the previous one), we should be massively more ambitious than hoping to scrape 11th place.
Nobody should want the 12th club to be pushovers, what does that do for the sport.
It's up to us to be good enough and we should certainly be aiming for a top 8 spot (hopefully better).

Still have nightmares from that ground when we played Warrington there in semi finals, started off a cracking day until we kicked off .joking apart it’s lovely ground and sure they will provide stiff competition for us and others in the lower parts of the table .

Im just realistic
