No, but as a child I was taught that people who avoided answers to reasonable and straightforward questions were usually in the wrong, especially if they resorted to ad hominems.

Explain, please. I'm clearly missing something obvious here in the first place, so I'm not going to be any the wiser from cryptic comments. |

Lol, you picked the only reply to your comment that didn't address concerns surrounding relegation and promotion this season to respond to? Do you see the point now?  |

Er, no, I don't. The point I originally responded to was one that appeared to be suggesting that the Championship having a 22-game season with each team playing nine teams twice and four teams once meant that promotion/relegation should not be in place.
Subsequently I've seen some posts, including your own, arguing that the % points system is flawed as it can be exploited. That's true, but it's a different point to the one I replied to.

The team that goes down will always point to the uneven fixtures if they are not everyone plays everyone home and away, as will the second place in the lower division if they miss out because the other team had an easier ride.
But its up to the teams to decide before the season what they are prepared to play for.
Personally I'd go back to franchising. |

Quote: The Phantom Horseman "Firstly, the Summer Bash has already been binned.
Secondly, what's the difference between how the Championship fixtures are being mapped out and SL loop fixtures?
Any advantage/disadvantage is fairly minimal, and it's a bit sad if anyone is looking for loopholes to avoid relegation before the season has even begun.'"
Despite having an A level in English literature I seem to be so stupid as I can’t see any question to respond to in your initial reply to my post, maybe I need to turn the clock back 40 years and go back to school.
Although as an amateur psychologist I’m going to change my original diagnosis of school bullying to napoleon syndrome  |

Personally,I have every respect for all Wakey fans, and your club,and love to converse with all of you whenever i feel to do so. I must say that atomic (the mod) has completely ruined the Leigh forum board with his over zealous authoritarian approach,and has now belittled your club for some odd/unknown unacceptable reason. The Leigh forum is now dead because of him as well. His posts are completely unnecessary, and i will now take the opportunity to apologize on behalf of all Leigh fans who i'm sure would agree with me that he is nothing but an idiot.'"
Totally agree Cokey, i rarely go on our board now for that reason. With posts like his is it any wonder we get the crap that we do. I remember the day trip to Wakey well for the CC cup tie. Called in a little club (Cons club i think) near the ground, old bloke on the door with a tin..a quid entry, Coors on draught. Had a great natter with the Wakey fans. A god day out, and a bonus scoreline
A shame we have the odd goofball that lowers our respectability |

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg |

| Quote: vastman "Most of the time you get the hostility. After a contentious game, a sour transfer or just general animosity between local rivals.
None of this exists between Wakefield and Leigh, never has. As for the Fox thing why attack a player who most fans haven’t ever seen play, a guy from a long ago generation. That’s what baffled me and still does.
Leigh have a chance, no fans know that better than we do, so we don’t take you likely. However we also know we have a decent squad that has for various reasons badly under performed in the last two seasons.
We are a known quantity and it is known that we can play a bit. With that in mind even a negative bunch of fans like us have to believe we can beat the new boys as they stand at present. If we don’t I’m not sure there is much point in us starting the season.
As for the stadium I was delighted it worked out for you, I only wish we had such a supportive community. Yet as I’m sure you’ll testify, a new stadium is just a small part of the equation, as far as I’m aware no new ground has ever won a game.
If a stadium counts for 20% of the package then the frustrating thing for us is that we pretty much have the other 80% or would have if we had said stadium. It’s a massive ball and chain for us and we have really tried to shift it but it just hasn’t happened.
We are the great survivors and utterly deserve our status, what we can’t do yet is thrive.
You are the reverse, you have the key but as yet you haven’t managed to unlock it.
I’m no expansionist and never have been, I honestly don’t get the obsession. I’d rather play Leigh and Fev or Fax year in year out than London, Toronto and even Catalan who’s main drawing power imho is as a holiday destination.
Unfortunately or fortunately depending on viewpoint nobody cares what I think ![]()
Good post,our clubs have never had any animosity towards each other during my years of watching Leyth. As for the rant by Atomic,it beggars belief and is a tad embarrasing from a Leythers viewpoint.The majority of us are like yourselves passionate about our respective clubs and attempt to be civil towards fans towards fans from opposing clubs.When Bradford came down I found their fans both on here and in the flesh at the LSV to be of a very knowledgeable set without the arrogance of the Leeds fans,

Isn’t trying to get round the swear filters against the AUP?
