Very well put

What would have been written if we had won 25-24 or 30-24?

We will never know, but I can guess not half as much tripe and moaning as I have witnessed in the last 20 odd hours or so.

He scored a well taken try as well and I credit him for that but I have said it before and I'l say it again, the sooner we can get a grunt forward alongside Hilly the better shape we will be in.

That pass was ment for Hilly and Mike got in the way, if he had, Hilly wud of been under the sticks.

And as for the gym, LSV wanted £3000 a month for the hire and the club just couldnt afford that, so the lads do it off their own backs.

Why is it every time Leigh lose a game its always lost down the middle???

WHAT YOUR REALLY SAYING IS THAT LEIGH WONT PAY FOR A GYM , plenty of gyms in the area . and weights cannot be dismissed they are very important ,

I am not saying leigh are not willing to pay Keith it is the fact of 17 players in at any one time that is the problem that is the case at our gym i am led to believe.

i know that ian and understand , the problem is that public gyms are not the right place for players to do the work required . £3000 a month should be affordable we at leigh east pay £4000 a month for our training facilities and we are amatuers . its not about cost its about performance

I see your point Keith didnt realise they had a gym they could use and you are right weights are a very important part of our game.
