Are you going tomorrow Gaz.?

TBH if full pro players are not fit then are they not in breach of contract? same could be said re part timers too, perhaps even more so as the coaches then have less time in skills drills & preperation.

Wasn't a player fined and threatend with the sack at Salford for turning up at pre season completely out of shape. I think he was told that it was upto him to keep his self in shape as it said so in his contract. Or have I dreamed that?

Well I got my ticket at lunch time today so I'll be there. I think the fact that Wigan are bringing a vastly under strength team has got my back up lol.

Whoever plays I hope we snot 'em at the end of the day it's still Wigan Warriors and I've been watching Leigh since the mid eigthies and never seen us beat them so if we get a result I'll be more than pleased



Btw I nipped into the shop when I got my ticket and was told not to believe everything I read about the Wigan side that has been advertised so maybe they will bring some first teamers after all.

Good man knew we would talk you round.

I'm pumped... lets get them hammered whoever turns up and pulls a shirt on!!!

Thats the team he has put on their officiall site so unless there has been some diplomatic developements I would say that will be who's turning up.

Oh well they'll still be wearing Wigan shirts whoever they are so I say we get stuck into them and really give them some stick.

Too be honest I think the players should take it as an insult that Wigan feel they can send the academy side and get away with it. It can only serve to fire them up I'd have thought

Lets hope so cannot wait really looking forward to it, have to work tonight though and i just know its going to be the longest 12 hours i have done,

off sunday night though.

As we both (me and the lad) missed last week (no option on that one) we had already changed our tickets from Salford for this match and would not miss it for anything

Father forgive me, for I have sinned.... I've found a crust mucher who's opinions I'm finding myself agreeing with and respecting. Step forward Mr Kiss....


If it ever happens to a wannabe scouse mutant then I'll stop following Leigh.

A few seasons ago, they couldn't even manage that - we had to lend them our kit! (back in the Asda sponsorship days, I believe)

Yes I also remember seeing Tuigamala in a Leigh shirt at HP. Either 1994 or 1995 IIRC..

It was preseason 1994-95 - Leigh won 30-29 and David Hill tackled his heart out opposite Tuigamala.

Aunt Sally... 100% commitment

Thats a mis match if ever I heard of one

All the whinging about the Wigan side, have Leigh named their team yet? There's nothing on the official site.

Millward has always said he would field his strongest team

But he hasn't named a team has he? At least Wigan had the decency to tell the fans who was playing.

So who was being disrespectful?

I thought there were rules in place to stop this sort of thing. Wasn't it Millward who caused that rule to be introduced?

I don't this McGuire has been disrespectfull. I think he has done us a favour. Last week agaist Dire just showed the massive gap between Championship and SL. The only people who he has done up like a kipper are you Pies by waiting untill a lot of you had bought the tickets before naming his team. Good PR that. One right out of Mo's book of How To Make Friends And Influence People.

We're a Championship side - we don't have to name a squad, in the build up to a game.

You did last week v Warrington.

I warned you it wouldn't be easy. Pity the referee was the only one to hear the final hooter.

Doubt any W£$%n fans did though

Your not [size=150kid ding[/size if he would of put a strong senior squad out today we would of had another 60 up us just like the Dire managed last week.

You all need your ears cleaning out it was sounded three times
