I'm not convinced they'd come in again...

Too many folk have long memories and won't go near the place cos Leigh didn't get Murph's name on that extended contract in 1971, or because of Mick Higgins or because Ashy said something out of turn back in 1992.. the excuses are endless and I don't believe the former fans can be brought back.

They are happy to snipe in the pubs and clubs.

and it is that shortsightedness that has gripped this club like a cancer in recent years.
We have a half full glass, that seems almost empty to most.

I was out of breath reading that............. I take it you like a cardio-vascular work-out....

my dad started to take me wastching leigh when i was 7, i am now 38 in july. i go home and away, and class myself as a loyal fan, i have a moan and hate it when we play bad, and love it when we win and play well. I will always be a leigh fan and will continue to be loyal to my club till they hammer the final nail into my coffin, watching and supporting your team is about the emotinal roller coaster that rl and sport is all about, i can see why people are upset, but come on we have been in worse positions than this, and come back fighting, what we need is for the loyal fans to stay loyal and continue to support our club, even if we think it can be run better, and who doesn't,m but to walk away is not a option, not for me anyway, loyal leigh fan til i die.

Are you wembley71...........

well said that man

no bart i am not. but i am wolrab and i shall be at haven in a few weeks and halifax shortly afterwards, i may even boo my team if they deserve it, and clap them also when they deserve it, but the important point is i will be at the games, and come that day when we win something and it wasn't to long ago when we did win a trophy or 2, we can all say well we've been with our club through thick and thin, very thin but we're fans and supporters and we won't walk away, we just can't, my point made i think. keep the faith no matter how hard it is.

C,mon lad stick with it a bit longer cos when you get to sixty it,s only a quid at the Miners.

My Grandad always said "Ah well, if things don't happen they'll stop as they are".

oh ok I,ll go to both games too.

As I point out every now and again, I have lived in Toronto for the last 7 years so I have no choice whether to attend games or not. However, I will be over for two weeks at the end of July.

By complete coincidence I will be in the Lake District when we are playing Barrow away. I WAS looking forward to popping along, until our results got even worse than they had been, and I have been having serious second thoughts about whether it is worth the effort.

But having thought about it, Leigh is still MY team and I WILL be there, win, lose or draw, rain, hail or shine. Maybe we can perform creditably, maybe we will get a bonus point, heck maybe we will snatch a famous victory! It would be great to have a lot of fellow leythers there to cheer the lads on and boo them enthusiastically if things go pear shaped!

Excuses ,excuses , part time fans like you are the reason we are in this situation



Your 7 year absence had nothing to do with me joining the board did it ?

This thread just proves what an prat the first poster is

WYSIWYG is at it again. All his 'posts' are wind up/mouthing off bo%*&!ks.
I bet he doesn't even know there are 2 Rowleys, called Allan & Paul

Paul wont get sacked

Will rowley still have a role at the club when millward arrives or will he be able to bring his own staff in?

You can't blame me for that one. Seriously though...its when you find you cannot go to matches, you realise how much you miss it. If I ever moved back to Leyth, which is unlikely, I certainly wouldn't take it for granted.

At the end of the day, all true Leigh fans will do whatever they can to help the club at least survive so that our future generations can enjoy what we have enjoyed (

) for the next 50 years.

Did I or did I not tell you at approximately 4:40pm on Sunday then, despite your feelings at the time, you'll still be at 'Haven?

you did but I was really down at the time.

To be fair though Matt - they do live a lot nearer to Paris than everybody else!!

He should be treated like any other employee. If results keep on coming in the way they are doing, then they will have no choice but to dismiss him.

If they don't, then I am afraid that there is truth in the matter on what various posters state on here about the goings on off the field at Leigh.

It seems to be another season to forget which is a shame. I very much doubt that we will be relegated, but we wont be far off.

LSV seems to be killing us, but what is going off and on the field isnt helping either.

Is it true or not?
I would like to echo Franks request to the poster and all the others who are thinking of calling it a day with Leigh. Please dont pack in. Give Leigh time and it will get better. Dave is right, winning in sport comes in cycles. Look at Bradford. Saints could be in the mire in a few years, they were even talking about The Pies being relegated at one time.

look at fax now and where they where when won the grand final
