Stop being negative!

4 more seasons in the Championship and then still virtually no chance of getting a franchise, even if we qualify to apply.

I'd be suprised if we even have a club worth caring about by then.

Is Arthur Thomas going to put 4 more years of money in for a 0.1% chance of a Super Leagu franchise? I wouldn't blame him if he didn't.

RIP the Leigh Centurions as a force at any level.

Leigh are nailed on for 2015. AT has been told by Dickless Lewis.

Leigh are the new Widnes: expect yoof, squillions of profit and a shoite team. Go back to your new stadium and prepare for Super League, 2015 stylee

If Toulouse don't get put in this time, they're more or less a certainty for 2015.

Yeah but i'm sure there'll still be a couple of SL Chairmen still wearing hard hats and pointing at fresh air in 2015. It's not a lost cause.

People seem to have this strange idea that a club will be promoted to SL in 2015 , do any of you seriously think the RFL will make the same promise again that they made last time

Unless a club fails financially big style , or an expansion club gets a major backer , the bridge has been lifted

WHY?????????????????

Can we not get crowds (althougfh not brilliant) but equal to Fax n Fev and better than the rest?
Can we not afford the quality of players that all the others will have?
Don't we have a lottery, LISA, etc better than most?
Isn't Leigh a hotbed for RL players.
It's all about doing the right things with what you have and for starters this years squad was never good enough in basic skills / speed.
The club MUST now start to be seen as doing something to get fans back for next season - it's going to be even harder after that display BUT AGAIN, DON'T BLAME THE FANS WHO DON'T COME - it's the team and/or the coach who is to blame - crowds increased by hundreds when we started to have a good run.

dont speak for me...the team and leigh public are to blame...you really do think you are the messiah

Explain ?

Not the messiah , just someone with an open mind to what is in front of me

What is your ' sermon ' to give us a future ?

i never gave up on sl and never will and widnes seemed to have made it, put the blame where it belongs, a crowd of 1500 for a play off game sums it up

Where's the money going to come from? AT won't put in another 4 years of cash? I don't think he will.

That's what I am getting at - I don't think many of our rivals has a millionaire backer putting thousands in do they?

So you blame the people of the town for not turning up ?

So how do you get them to come ?

But we're in an expensive new stadium with no alternatives.

agree totally, only chance of team getting in in 2015 is toulouse or another new team not yet formed.
RFL will change laws to make that certain from 2012.

When do we move to Crilly Park Mike ???

aren't you so glad your team don't play 'glorified friendlies' week in, week out.

WELL DONE THE RFL, who needs promotion/relegation !!

thats for the club to work out starbug, but stop blaming the franchise system, the rfl have staed one team will definately come up and we have failed , the fault lies with us.

should the chief ex not be responsible for creating crowds of 2500 if not then get rid till we find some body that can achieve it.

not seen too many promotions this year or new ideas.

Dead easy running a Rugby League club isn't it? What with all those millionaires tripping over themselves in the boardroom.

Reality check folks.

After AT pulls his money out. Unless the LSV want to offer us discounted terms.

Told someone the other day that Leigh where on tv again and they didn't even know we were playing

never said it was easy but that is somebodys job and can you say we have been inoviative this year

for Leigh, read oldham, swinton, whitehaven, barrow etc

the 'local folk' aren't interested. We could have had FREE entry tonight, wouldn't have been 4000 on.

toulouse may go in for 2015 but shooting me now for saying this but wot about south wales scorpians too?

alot can happen in 5 years

to myself LOL

The franchise system is part of it , the TV games don't do anybody in this competition any favours , the RFL either don't know or care about the Championships

But yes the main problem is with the club , or to be more correct , all the clubs

I still don't understand this ' messiah ' bit ? What are you suggesting ? , that I have ideas on how clubs can secure their futures ? Well yes I have , you have just posted that you don't have any ideas on what should be done , so what exactly are you saying ?
