Leigh added a new squad of highly paid, highly experienced players and went backwards.

As Kev has clearly demonstrated above, we consistently over achieve. We are a financial sound club, who own our own ground, that consistently finishes higher than those of similar means. Plus, in the last 10 years there have been 3 outstanding seasons. And ....I think we have the best chairman in rugby league, bar none.  

You could argue though that if Fev had finished the season with Ridyard. Holmes and Farrell and even if they could have called on Wildie for the game against London then they would arguably have had finished second. But having said that if any team loses its pivotal players to injury then they will struggle. Fev like Batley have paid the price of key injuries to players so I reject the fàct that either team has gone backwards
