We do have a good squad but that is because us and Swinton are the only two Championship clubs west of the Pennines.

Regarding our survival' in the main it is down to the club borrowing money from the rfl and cutting down on costs not least wages for players and the fact that we have a small squad.

Fans have helped too of course.

Eagles TV - the drop kick looks even better in slow mo as does the bloke kicking the post

Compared to this time last year, we weren't that poor. Thought Leigh were very impressive and probably didn't deserve to lose. They should go well this year, if they can remain relatively injury-free; however, having a small squad could be their downfall - as has happened to us in the past.

The Eagles are starting to gel a bit more now - still got Mitch to come in and eventually Alex R - all bodes well.

On a personal note - a perfect weekend for me - Eagles win, Spireites beat Wednesday, Leicester City win at Norwich for the 1st time in a hundred years and Tigers got a similar drop-goal win at Sarries.

Ive had a look, ball carrying arm hits the floor and his momentum stops, so thats a double movement.

I am Charles Peroni Eusabio Caroli , residing at Blackpool Tower Circus , a member of the Napoli Carolis , but a Fan of Leigh Centurions for my sins , most Leythers know Charlie Caroli .
