So that's that, we're not on telly, which is bad from a Leigh point of view as we desperately needed the TV money. But we can now hope for a bigger crowd, more corporate sales too, fingers crossed.

Hope Leeds bring a load and we can get a bigger crowd than Huddesrfield v Fulham, Leeds are doing a great thing in subsidising the travel.

Leigh's LSV Stadium Record is 6476, which might seem nothing to a huge club like yourselves, but I don't think you realise how much it would mean to us to get a stadium record next friday.

Personally I can't wait to see Watkins play, please tell me he's fit?

Why isn't it on the box? Thought 2 were on bbc and 2 on sky?

Sky had a choice to broadcast the 2nd game, they didn't want to slum it in Leigh.

skys schedule says they are showing the friday QF and the sunday 5.30 qf, presumably two are on the beeb so the leeds game must be on

They must have decided not to cover Friday's game, so much for Sky loving RL, it's disgraceful

Wigan v Saints to Leigh on the Saturday and not enough time to swap equipment over from SKY to BBC is my theory.

Agreed.

He's out at the moment but said to be two weeks away from returning, so it's 50/50!

Gutted!

Even so i'm looking forward to watching some of the Leeds player, I like watching a lot of your players, never seen BJB/Watkins in the flesh is all.

Hardaker's the one to watch! Still needs to form more of a partnership with Hall, but he can create something out of nothing with his ability to break the line. Just shows what talent there is in the Championship! Which Leigh players do we need to be looking out for? I'm not very familiar with the Championship now it's not on Sky.

From Leigh Ryan Brierley the Scrum Half on loan from Cas has pace to burn.

Gregg McNallys been on form at full back, as has Martyn Ridyard at 6.

You know Rob Parker, Stu Littler and a few others.

James Laithwaites a young 2nd rower who's come in on DR from Warrington and looks a talent.

If Leigh have lost out on TV money because of Wigan not being able to secure a ground, I hope they will be suitable compensated!

Don't hold your breath mate. Seems we've been really shafted here, and if Wigan use LSV it really will be a kick in the stones.

As i havn't seen any official confirmation of the TV coverage of the CC Quarter finals, or have i missed it?

IMO if the Leigh v Rhinos game is not going to be covered by Sky then i cannot understand their reasoing behind their decision as we have seen some great games from Featherstone thus far in this comp against both Cas and Wigan and on both the BBC and Sky channels

This away cup tie at Leigh could also be a very tight game, i would be surprised if it was deemed to be a definate blow out scoreline by the Sky boys as the reason that it won't be televised

I await this important announcement as it will be a mad dash over to Leigh for me on the friday if it's not on Sky TV

I can understand if it's SKY not wanting to televise a 'potentially' one sided fixture.
But they are showing Wigan (full strength) v Widnes in a couple of months time.

It's on the RFL website dates, times and which games are to televised.

Kids under 11 free with adult, so £18 for parent n child to sit down in a new stadium for a CC quarter sounds decent value to me.
Hope you travel in numbers especially with the coach deal as well.

Your way out on that attendance Johnny

........ Where where you when England played Wales last year over 10.000...England v France 8,000 + i think it was



Hope to see loads of Leeds supporters coming to watch a great game You are the GF WINNERS and WORLD CLUB CHAMPS and should follow your team wherever and whenever they play


Its less than 50 miles down the road it will look pretty bad on you lot when the CENTURIONS fans out shout out sing the fans of the World Champs




Leigh Sports Village FRIENDLY GROUND , GREAT FRIENDLY SUPPORTERS

Think Jonny meant for a Leigh match.

You are quite correct though, 10700 aprox for the England match and plenty of seating available to boot !

The whole thing is a shame, but will still hope for a 4k+ crowd.

I hope the boys do us proud and give Leeds a game.

Would be awfully amusing if the other 3 ties are all one way !

That link was last updated on 28th April and Sky always had the option to broadcast this game which is why it's in the listings, however they obviously thought that Leigh weren't worthy enough to grace their channel and so decided not to take up the option.

It'll be interesting to see what they put in it's place.

Yeah, Friday night, rush hour traffic, 20+Miles of speed restrictions in place on the M62.
Can't wait...

I was at both games.

But as I said 'Leigh's attendance record' I thought people would understand what I meant.
