His purpose is trolling & wum, and gets away with it. If no one responded to him, he would be constantly talking to himself. Would he get fed up of it? Probably not.

Why is it trolling? My opinion is that the current Leigh squad is the worst in SL history. If you don’t agree, give me an alternative instead of spitting your dummy out and yelling about it. Engage in debate rather than having a cheap pop at me

There was a London side (2014?) that only picked up 1 win/2 points.

I expect Leigh will do better than that. I think they may even give Hull KR a contest at the bottom, based on what I saw of KR last season (although I don't know the quality of their recruitment except for Luis Johnson, the lad brought in from Wire).

Okay, I'll respond. A championship club signs players for their 2021 season in the championship....hardly going to full of 'State of Origin' players is it ?
Leigh have only been a Super League club for 5 days. Poor effort that Steph.

Of course they will do a lot better than that you are right, but nobody serious is suggesting Leigh won't be competitive, it's just the usual wind up merchants.

I'd argue that Leigh's own squad of 2005 was worse than their current one? So not the worst of all time. Can't believe I'm even replying to this but:

Worst SL Teams: Workington (1996), Huddersfield (1998, 2000), Halifax (2003), Crusaders (2009, 2011), Widnes (2012, 2018), London (2013, 2014), Bradford (2014), Wakefield (2015).

Leigh have a better squad than all of those sides. So nowhere near the worst in SL. They'll give a few clubs a run for their money next season as well. They arguably have a better squad now than in 2017.

In fairness, Davids, Leigh only got two wins in 2005 (? - the years merge). Hoping to make a fine fist of it this time (was much better last time out too).

If, when the proverbial pudding has been eaten, that hope is proven, Steph and his/her imaginary Matey Alma (Winwick Academy alumnus also?) will only have umble pie and their words to eat.

Unless Bart demands that his shorts be similarly ingested.

Dangit. I remember that I've still got a curried tea-cosy to eat. A gentleman'sh word ish hish Bond.
