Quote ="Snowy"Hilton Park / Leigh East had planning permission for some 80 houses being built of 2 3 and 4 bed homes. For whatever reason, nothing has materialised from this but the plans are probably still in place. Either way, it has never been the most desired land in Town !
I mentioned the 11% as it is the stake Leigh Centurions have in the LSV as a total entity. It has a say and if the club says bye, LSV is potentially worthless.
Leigh Harriers and Leigh East have something to show for it in its entirety and this is the same as the Rugby club in regards to the stadia.
Get LSV valued and pay the rugby club off and potentially buy this worthless piece of land off Grasmere St ? Enough for a great little stadium ?
It wont happen, but we are in this mess due to over inflated egos, pyss poor man management and the inability to revert to a Status Quo, thus ripping a pretty good team apart which in my opinion would have spanked Toronto easily. Hull KRs model should have been repeated.
Our reputation and professionalism has spiralled in the last few years
And people love the position we are in due to arrogance and cockyness.
Time to consolidate and put 17 Leigh lads on the pitch like we did in the Early 90's. Its really important that we don't go into admin for both the club and LSVs sake.
We will come good again and hopefully we will be ran by a good group of people that put both fans and club first.'"
I smiled when I read that bit G as I read the story on TL RL from Kevin Ashcroft that team of Leigh lads got us promoted to Div 1.
Funny that one of Beaumonts Yes men also a Leigh lad and club director posted on FB that if the people of Leigh wanted a team of Leigh lads playing in the local Dog and Duck league then so be it but they wanted SL and Loads of Highly Paid Antipodeans to compete with the big boys, well that ended well!
