All RL monikers being brought in during the 'Americanisation' *if that's a word* to follow NFL, NBA & NRL style of naming sports clubs as I am sure all know, I like that Halifax & Wakefied have dropped the sub names with Wakey only retaining trinity, hasn't done either any harm !

Would be very happy to drop the Centurions name. It didn't make much sense in 1995 (should have been Leigh Centenarians if you wanted to tie into the 100 years!) and even less sense now. Leigh Phoenix would be better in the circumstances. Halifax have Fax and Featherstone have Fev, Wakefield have Trinity, so would be good to have something like that. In view of recent events, how about the Chucklebrothers?

Bradford did.

Bottom line is NOBODY except DB knows anything , be that good or bad , so everybody speculating or worse stirring up by pretending they know things they don't , just pack it in , go to the game on Sunday , have a beer or three , enjoy the Rugby and wait

Might even get a T shirt done

Keep calm
And enjoy the game

Very well said.

Always liked plain old Leigh RLFC if I am honest.

We could retain a 'Centurions' range of Merchandise for the kids if need be along similar lines of Leeds RLFC, The Loiners. Castleford RLFC, The Glass blowers etc.

Mind you Leigh RLFC, The Comics suddenly feels very relevant once more.

While I tend to agree , the ' monika' isn't my personal favourite it is now without doubt ingrained in the towns youth , they refer to the club as The Cenurions , to change it now would be pretty daft

Do they really ? I have never heard anyone locally refer to the Centurions, only ever Leigh. Young and Old.

Let's be honest, the club have never fully embraced it. We were one of the last clubs to adopt a moniker, and was more a knee jerk reaction to the trend of the day IMO. Now would be an ideal time for the club to reinvert itself, starting with the moniker and following with the equally awful badge.

If we are going to keep it, at least make it a must have for the kids to wear. A Centurion turning away from the club name in what appears to be a look of disgust is just a terrible terrible Ill conceived concept. It looks absolute bobbins.

I note Leeds United FC and more so Manchester City FC , have both redesigned their club badges to something more relevant to their respective Cities and its people.

It is a terrible logo! Looks like it was done on Powerpoint. The next logo will be a set of false teeth - why? Derek is going to re-sign the 1971 squad and rename the team Leigh Denturions!


I'm here all week, until we get some actual news!

Resurrect Leigh Bears

Unfortunately the Bears were all signed by the Wolfpack. Well, they did have relatives over there.

Keep the name as it's what a lot of young fans who are our future have grown up with.
Whilst I agree with the comments about just focusing on watching the team I also think an update after the bombshell news is due even if it's a 'we are still looking or searching for investors'

The impression I get from talking,listening and reading is that only a minority of people refer to the Centurions, the vast majority use Leigh.

Leigh were robbed
Leigh were e
Leigh should have won
Did you watch Leigh on Sunday
Leigh have signed......

None would be better replacing Leigh with Centurions.

Yeah, and you and Hudd Shay can revive your positions as Billy and Bluey,

Damn



weve been Rumbled after all these Years !!

Who do you talk to ?
Who do you listen to ?
Who's writing do you read ?

Seriously the minority that use Centurions are all under 20

They might be a minority , but the most important minority

The vast majority, if not all use Wire for Warrington, not Wolves.

Should they replace the brand? Based on their success? Have you actually heard SKY state Wire or the COMICS?

You have a different impression than me, I can live with that, can you.

Why don’t the North Stand sing “ We are Centurions, we are Centurions” or “ We love you Centurions we do.....”?

Because I'm stood behind them..

Because as a useable name it's bloody rubbish , but it is what the younger generation refer to , and there isn't anything better to replace it with , so what harm/damage is it really doing ?

Yes the Logo is ' pants ' much preferred the old ' helmet/rugby ball

Might be daft, but "Leythers" Could and would be more plausible...

No use behind, you should be in front with your baton.

No chance with a baton Reffy.. Two bags of plain crisp is my claim to fame. Not quite the same effect..Now the away end can carry mallets with their drums. I can only pop my bag of crisps.

I'll be there Sunday..

I liked the old style outlined Centurions helmet & face profile in a rugby ball with an elongated Centurions umder, that was a good design, this latest one looks like it was done by Charlie Aged 6 1/2 for a competition on kids TV !

Drop the lot I say, go back to Leigh RLFC or just Leigh RL & bring the coat of arms back !

Ste, I never designed that logo.
