sweaty craiq

Good old RL fan mentality, discount eventsPrices have gone up which they should have but tickets selling well with 5000 or so already gone plus 19 boxes plus 200 diners in premier. At least Batley will make on the split this time and won’t face the shock of 1500 freebies in the gate Leigh win, good fight from Batley 6700+ crowd

Leigh have never had a funded Cat 1 Academy . 70’s to 90’s we ran Decent colts teams

Class A - Wire Saints Leeds. 1 Fit for purpose stadium with RL the primary tenant if not owner . Excellent floodlights, broadcasting and media facilities, toilets and catering to a high standard, on site and well lit parking 2. Financials - any losses to be covered by capitalising loans. 3. Must run and be awarded cat1 academies and reserves 4. Gates - min 60% capacity or 6500

No they closed it due to no or poor competition as they were denied access to big boy league. Love how this thread was hijacked into a Leigh knockathon by the first few posts by the usual knownowts

I was aware of his past, and wish he could just be more approachable in what is an entertainment business As a friend make sure he is ok

First Casual rest professional, will confess last one was 2016

Huddersfield came down into the championship 2002 after a great run in 2nd half of SL 2001 after TS settled in, kept FT when central funding was about £60k for the rest and drew gates of 1500 or so - so the pay roll was paid by Davy as he rightfully saw no future outside SL. Your income will have been massively below expenditure that year.

In any industry once a manager loses his team then its nigh impossible to recover. I have met and spoke with BM on a few occasions, he is the most unlikable and confrontational coach I have ever met - maybe he needs to work on that side of his skill set

His master plan was simple- get to the MPG, pray to all Gods in the run up and hope for Leigh to have a bad day at the office and get the run of the green all game.

No, was looking at doing so and working

Fergie is off quota due to coming from Union

I would guess your playing budget is 3-4 x Batleys, it was rumoured to be well over £1m

If Batley turn us over next week they will be in SL, with almost every player looking for a championship club to sign for- that’s the reality of running PT in the Champ

We have 14 teams ready forSL imo leaving a semi pro comp beneath but you are proposing no promotion by that statement and a return to franchising

McD coach of the year imo

Game on again, fancy Fev to get a roll on like the score set

3-4 back to backs, so how do you get that many against a disciplined team?? and how do you get enough in a game to dent the under 2 try's conceded per game? Our only issue will be a poor ref who allows niggle to disrupt the game, slowing it down and creating a stop/start borefest. Thats McD's gameplan written for you

You really have a problem - only questions answered and opinions made.

OK cash reserves and equity very positive until the 2021 season dug into them - as I stated equity moved from a negative £1.9m to a positive £160k during this period. 2021 and this year will have the opposite effect. Wigans net worth is negative £5.9m in 2020 and I cant find 2021 results as a comparative

Hasn’t he along with a bloke, often in Derek’s box, who recently sold his holiday parks for many many millions??

Saints and Leeds don’t seem to be paying crazy money to imports, and seem more capable of keeping the kids From what I can see Leigh made a profit from season 2017-2020, I can’t see 2021 or 2022 being that way but we didn’t take the covid loan, indeed 2020 showed us with £500k cash in bank

Bums off seats watching game and I assume puts Bums on seats selling tickets - the latter is easily quantifiable with stats.

Partington - Gone

Fev by 40

I was aware of our offer, which was substantial enough to get the Wigan management whingeing, but my comment is valid - Wiggin havent been making profits and whatever extra he has got will have to come from somewhere - which will be the kids who are now rightfully demanding to be paid for the adult job they now do. So the stupidity of the cap could end up losing the best producer of young talent the talent it has worked hard to create - McConnell already gone to Leeds and I would love to see Halsall and O'Brien at Leigh when the bidding starts.
