Don't be such a stick in the mud!
Some leythers may be unrealistic, some wildly so, but frankly we're all allowed to dream. So what if the yorkies don't like it? They've never had imagination or dreams over that side of the hill.

Incidentally since you spouted such sh!!te a year ago, you also played like sh!!te in the middle eights and embarrassed yourselves by finishing bottom of the league, the phrase I've heard ducks fart before springs to mind here

Thing is fella, we know we failed so the owner went out and bought 6 new players...
whilst many in yorkshire still appear to be doing the conga over the middle 8's weve moved on its history pal..

Did anyone else see the play the players did the other year? The best line in it was Rowley's "It's powered by the over optimism and ambition of Leigh fans so it's practically indestructible!"
It's what being a Leigh fan is all about, it's what being a sports fan is all about. If you're not dreaming about your club lifting silverware you're not supporting them properly & missing out on half the fun.
Can't wait for next season. =#FF0000COME =#FFFFFFON =#FF0000LEYTHERS =#FFFFFFCOME =#FF0000ON =#FFFFFFLEYTHERS

There's nothing wrong with a bit of healthy optimism and the belief that your team is better than any other team out there, why would you watch any sport if that were not the case?
However, there's a lot wrong with taking every opportunity to declare that we're going to win the CC within 2 years - that's just blind stupidity and negates any other opinion, valid or not, that you might have.

Dear Jagger.
Would your time not be better employed in searching out & deleting around 50% of your quotes on this board ?
I also wonder if all the U-Turns you will now have to perform will result in one big pirouette & you falling over from dizziness, that is even more dizziness than you normally display here in Centurion Land.
As for "the MIGHTY Fax", well one day back in time they might have been, just like Leigh in the early 80's & Leigh now, but even though I do quite like Fax in a weird way *I love Leigh v Fax games*, I do think "the MEDIOCRE Fax" might be more appropriate.
Last thing before I leave you in your Happy Valley, would you be so kind as to post on here your quality signings of the last 2 or 3 seasons ?

Ste , thank you for your message,why would I want to delete my posts?I stand by them, no u turns,the Mighty Fax are my love in sport we were not mediocre last season as we finished with a fair bit more RL funding than LEIGH,as for our quality signings?Tangata and Calahane ripped you apart in the middle 8s game last season.I hope this helps?

Again all in your own opinion...
Not sure I take every opportunity to make this claim...
It's a dream Mish, one dream that comes a little closer with every signing my mate Derek funds and signs..
It's quite a bizarre situation were by when we get there this season or next I'll celebrate and you may or may not apologise for your insults...
Alternatively of course we might not get there and I'll say looks like you were right Mish we didn't make it..
You can choose to continue to call me then should you wish..
One things for sure having a dream and aiming for Wembley is the last time I checked no crime and nobody will be sending me to prison...
It's just a wish and a dream , you can choose to dream or continue to try and slate people who have that dream.
Have a nice evening love...

Mick Jagger you told us :-
We had to release loads of players to try and sign Rangi
Didn't you question that the salary cap would be increased?
And finally you said Rangi wouldn't sign...
Pretty consistent you got all wrong..
See you in Feb when this Leigh team comes to town!
