sweaty craiq

Is that Leeds? If so he has bags of potential but needs game time - he won’t get it at either Leigh or Leeds in 2023 so will be reserves or loan. I would have kept him at Leigh

Heavily rumoured Mulhern and Hughes will be announced at Leigh very soon - players and staff on post season extended mad Monday at present in Ibiza.

All those were once part of Leigh Borough, and the reason our record crowd is 32000

No, none whatsoever. After we got rid of the Bears name I think you had to have one at the start of the SL era, and some bright spark went with Centurions as it was 100 years since the breakaway and we were a founder. Personally hate it, but kids seem to like it

Harry, within a few miles of Leyth you have about 130k folk living in Leyth, Bent, Bongs, Gowburn/Lowtun, Glazebury, Culcheth and Astley - all have which have historical ties to the owd Borough of L,BnB. Then add in Cawyeds plus Bowtun and thats enough to fill LSV with a winning team every week

the rest being lies

Personal wealth?? Great thing with Derek is that his business is current and making £3m plus pa in profits, assets do not pay bills. Cant comment on the other guys who have joined the ride, believe its £billions though

What are the top 5 attendances when folk paid proper ticket prices to get in - Thats 2 x TW and 1 X TO out the way, so HKR v Salford? and Wakey v Bulls by a couple of dozen but certainly contained 3k Bulls fans min

Many clubs dont average 7500+ - which would have been the true attendance incl corporate/sponsors. 6600 was Leighs SL average in 2017, hope we beat that in 2023 despite the economic reality

Thats the Penrith region - What was the old Leigh Borough has around 140k folk in it now.

He didn't as next years Champ squad would have been even stronger if not promoted

That certainly wasn't Leigh this time - 5 year financed plan about to start Y2, should we be in SL for Y3 then the real fun begins

The work you dont see is about not making it a small town - the players have done many coaching sessions outside the Town. Leyth, Bent, Bongs n Burn have well over 100k folk and there has been plenty work done in Bowton and Howton again.

Didnt look like John Wayne after 3 months cattle herding did he?? I ask because they had just done the bike Ride for the kids charity which raised £24k, and thank you Broncos for contributing to that figure btw, a figure that Derek agreed to match so £48k has been sent to life 4 a kid.

Rather have Hill

Caleb Aiken will be playing for Wales in the WC does that make him exempt from quota based on your rules?

Unknowing to yourself you have uncovered the conundrum of the Championship - If a team wants SL you must recruit a team in the Championship that can go up with you, otherwise you will have little chance from the leftovers to stay up. Average age of the Leigh team was mid 20's with their prime ahead of them, we are now going up with a youngish squad that know each other and have recruited some unbelievable new boys to add to it. Lam as a man has been instrumental in some of what we have already signed on the back of players wanting to be a part of the fantastic atmosphere around the club. The facts are that if you are cashed and ambitious then you will be FT in the Championship, but you wont find a squad of SL ready young players in the UK. The challenge is for the PT clubs not cashed and not able to make the transition to SL - this is why FT clubs must be ring fenced with other FT clubs, not by diluting ambition to make an even field for the second tier that would kill that ambition for ever.

tha misread it lad, it was Bevan a French lad- do keep up

Heard we had signed 4 marquees capped at £150k each but costing £2m a season

Thought it was more! Can we have 4?

Joes been playing back row at Leigh and feel he will be too slow at International centre level

Radley isn't good enough for England, Bateman starts at 13, Knowles back up.

Depends what comes in that we have agreed not to disclose. Some young forwards at Wigan who they are struggling to keep and it would be nice to see Hill back were it all started as a 16yo, but we must be in SL to get them and that’s not a done deal I expect our last non Fed to be a real wow!! btw if it’s not French

Hope this helps Leigh have 1 overseas spot left for 2023 should we make SL 8 Fed trained from the squad are signed already The 3 Wire seem nailed on ie Mulhern Davis and Hughes I wouldn’t be shocked to see McDonald to Leeds and Leutele to Leigh Bevan French had been offered a huge deal to be a Marquee player, think he will be back in NRL though Hood may be on his way back again There are strong rumours of two new owners joining Derek, all are seriously rich and are friends who have been around the club years. Leigh are signing a SL squad now on a full cap plus marquee spend, if we don’t make it some may have clauses but most won’t great times to be a Leyther

Only one name for that part of the world - The Ducks.
