Sorry my mistake I thought it was a Leigh forum where Leigh fans post about there own team. Must of got it wrong


It is nominally a Leigh forum but it would be very boring if visitors weren't encouraged to comment particularly when they are going to or have played Leigh.

I did hear a story, from a very good source at Fax that Alex Brown turned down a £18k signing on fee with them to join you boys for more money, so hopefully KPMG won't come a knocking.


Add to that Barlow not taking a pay cut to join them, Leigh must have spent a lot of money for this season. I guess that is who Mark Aston was having a pop at when he mentioned about teams putting all their eggs in one basket.

Anyway Im going to go for a Batley shock in this one as Leigh seem to have problems with in fighting and also havnt really set the world alight pre-season against some poor teams.

Hi Greg, I'll take that bet, how much?

The club is tighter than a Yorkshireman's wallet, and as for the finances - they are very healthy, ask the RFL, in fact with a bucket we could help pay your rent that a Halifax Town fan said you owe :wink:

This seasons build up has been the biggest in my lifetime, the plethora of new and previous sponsors has put us in a nice place and the lack of negativity coming from the towns Meldrews has been almost non existent.

Pauls got the armoury to win this war, and I cant wait!!

Remember season tickets are still on sale and equate to 3 FREE games per season together with a FREE under 16's season ticket for every adult/concession sold

Get down to the LSV early and enjoy the build up with the other passionate fans, the Legends bar will be something special on Sunday and those in will be in for a real treat :D

Over 50 years of pain,pleasure,frustration,joy,heartache and ecstasy that supporting Leigh has given me but I would not swop it.

You love having a dig at Leigh,I don't think I have ever read anything positive about Leigh from you ,every year its the same old garbage.You just go on believing what you want and we will see who has the last laugh.

Leigh are in a much better position than we have been for some time and I'm confident we are doing more things right than wrong, we might not finish in the top 2 but I don't think we will be far off.

Well Greg is obviously entitled to his opinions but his post this time is clearly a wind up and it seems to have suceeded. :)
