Over 50 years of pain,pleasure,frustration,joy,heartache and ecstasy that supporting Leigh has given me but I would not swop it.: |

I have no problem with Widnes winning club of the year award and most Leigh fans don't, but it makes you wonder what the game has come too when what happens off the park is perceived as being more important that what happens on it.
All the back biting and sniping over the last few years has been about,giving free tickets away,richest owners,best sponsorship etc etc.What about best pack, the best backs who plays the most attractive rugby.
I'm not bitter just totally disapointed and cheesed off with the game I love being led by souless people who have only one aim to grow SL and sod the rest, nothing will change this opinion on mine regarding this.
VM should hold his head in shame for his comment about can't wait to leave this League,its wrong on so many fronts, and he should no better, so much for the brotherhood of RL.

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg |

Hey Juice, you make it sound like I'm the only one. My main beef is with the RFL. As for targeting Widnes for my comments, it would be any club which 'appear' to be playing the RFL designed games. Criteria written to suit one club etc etc. Am I the only one to comment on this, no. Fans are being lost to the game, especially at Championship level. However SL crowds are also down this year. The RFL are having a guilt trip, when they have no need to. Widnes as a Club have done everything that is required of them, including relegating first team performance on the field as second fiddle to other factors.
You never know, in 2012 you could be supplying us with DC players!!

For Widnes is it not just a case of if you can't vest them, join them? I mean peopled gripes are not being able to get into SL but Widnes have that chance so what do you expect them to do, reject it?
You never know SO'C may give the Championships a voice on the all powerful SL board towirk for the better?

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Why did you put a space after ignorance? and why did you not full stop your sentence?
I'm puzzled as to this. Very puzzled. Most grammar nazis are very careful. This is like Hitler employing a jew to trim his moustache.

Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”

I think we are all getting a bit cheesed off with Leythers atm. There are several threads on your board slagging us off, and saying that we are just being piggy backed to the SL, not because we have a great club, but because we are the new darlings of the RFL. We are being lumped in with the likes of London and the Welsh.
So, you can stick your humour up your hoop!

Amen to that pepe! They realised they couldn't get in SL and turned on us in a shot, whilst trying to act like the morale voice of Rugby outside SL where in reality their bitterness just shines through and to think... I used to think more of them!
