That's why we're not coaches and Paul is
In Paul we trust !!!

I would go for as much experience as is available for Wednesday and then go for a more youthful approach on the weekend. However Paul is the man who's coaching, tactics and team choices got us where we are right now so what ever he does I'm 100% behind.
One thing is for sure, no matter how deflated the guys feel and no matter how bruised and tired they are, if they open the dressing room door and hear the crowd going crazy, they will know how we feel about them all, and they will rise to the challenge once again.
The man on the mike should be given a heads up as the boys come out of the dressing room and towards the tunnel, and needs to let the crowd know they are on there way. That way they hear the roar as they approach the tunnel and come out into an already deafening atmosphere.
We still have an unbeaten record in the championship, and I know our boys will not let that go without a fight.

AJ's injured I reckon Haggerty or Sarsfield will cover one centre with either Kay, Peat or Hankinson covering t'other with Brown bought in on't wing.

Is Pownall not available instead of Brown?

Is Riddy out?

If Kay plays centre both Brown & Pownall will be needed on either wing

Here is my back 7.

McNally

Kay Haggerty Hankinson Pownall

Then Riddy and Kes.

Leigh by 10.

Hankinson on the bench, Sarsfield and Haggerty starting at centre, either of them moving to second row when Hankinson comes on.

We're on a roll, Leigh by 18, crowd 2352, HT draw 58964

MOM Kes ............back to what he does best scoring

That is the backline. Forwards Spencer Beswick Wilkes

Sarsfield Goulden

Barlow.

Bench Acton Bate Penky and Emmitt.

Mado got 3 games ban, so should be available if reserves have played since as the game he picked up the ban, their game and the two we have played !!!

They also play this afternoon don't they?

I have posted tonights team.

Reserves next game is against Halifax on Saturday (2.30pm at Leigh MR Juniors on Manchester Road).

If they have then no one has told me

it has been put back to Saturday at Leigh Rangers on Manchester Road, see tiptops post for further details.

who do you think you are?
Paul Rowley

If this is correct & no reason to doubt it, then I think Sam Hopkins must of upset someone along the way last few weeks to be banished altogether just when he was getting back to something like himself.

Well it is a shame but sadly Sam is not a contracted player but Bate is and PR has to take things like that into consideration.

Who knows Sam might be back at Leigh next season.

Did we get Hoppy on loan for the rest of the season? His month was up a while ago so maybe he has been recalled on the quiet?

Lynda , he sometimes thinks he is .

Somebody is pulling your chain Frank

You jest he thinks he's 10 times better - deluded sod

Paul's a lot more Easy on the eye though

Does that mean you still have that pic of Paul on Blackpool Beach (Northern Rail promo) where he shows a bit to much , or did Leigh no1 fan get them all

Think he's here on a week-by-week basis.
