If you and others want to attend , then by all means do so , if you want to watch on TV , fine , not a problem , but essentially it isn't anything to do with Leigh Centurions RL club , if you want a sensible discussion about it , try the VT or one of the many SL clubs boards that played at it

South Wales Scorpions aren't in the NR Cup, so presumably weren't at the launch?

| Isn't it funny when someone disagrees with a SL post the usual subjects come on and start hurling the 'Curmudgeons, or flat cappers etc..' as if it was an insult or do they think that people are not allowed their own opinions, its called realism, like starbug says it's really nothing to do with Leigh Centurions, myself I just hope some of these millions of profit trickles it's way down to Leigh Miners Rangers or Leigh East or Atherton Dragons etc.. as it's those clubs that do all the hard work and prove to the 'shiny boys' that without them they would have to play 13 over the hill antipodeons. But I wont hold my breath waiting for it to happen.

| I don't agree with most things SL Fred but I definitely don't agree with people suggesting that I go onto another board to talk about a "rugby league" issue. Are we now to say that anything not appertaining to Leigh Centurions is not allowed on this board? This discusion was mainly between Leythers so has a place on the "leythers forum". Also the whole froum is named "RL fans " is it not? So we should be able to discuss any RL subject on any forum as long as it is not rude, defamatory or down right out of order.

No problem discussing anything , but as I suggested this is the important bit

You will be very lucky to have a ' sensible ' well thought out even handed , unbiased discussion about a subject like this on here
Just the way it is i'm afraid

| Just name one thing that is relevant to Leigh Centurions in the Millenium Magic? - oh sorry you don't appear to like answering questions do you reffy and you did mention parochial earlier in the thread.
Not suggesting discussions shouldnt take place Tony, only the relevancy of those discussions to Leigh Centurions, thats what people who call others can't see, did I watch the M weekend? - some of it yes but as I was filming on both weekend days I didn't get to see it all- i have it on my SKY box, will I watch it? possibly at a future date but as I am not particularly bothered about watching game I know the result of, then I don't know.
Would I go to a M weekend? No definately not and for other PERSONAL reasons as to why I don't go to Wembley or Old Trafford any more, nothing to do with being parochial but personal.

| Hold on there are threads about Wakey. Leigh Miners, Leigh East, allsorts. None of which have any relevance to Leigh Centurions but I have never seen any protests about these threads.

| Nine out of the last twenty topics have nothing to do with Centurions, the majority don't attract protest and derision because they don't mention the hated Super League.

| No protests from me only questioning the relevance to Leigh Centurions re the Millenium weekend, one could argue that as Miners East and Wakey as they appear to be the favs for us playing them next year are relevant, if im thinking correctly Starbug was only sugesting an alternative place to argue the relevance of the millenium weekend which to be fair Its one place I never look at - but then again I don't tend to go on many other boards, what with me being parochial and the like
And it's not the SLE thats hated well not by me anyway as I have no ambitions whatsoever in those directions, I hate nobody or nothing I just question waste and injustice

| Quote ="Scooter Nik"The single most important post on this thread until TV viewing figures come in.
£1.25 million pounds in the RL bank - no matter who gets it - is the bottom line.
Would that money have been made on a normal derby weekend? Would the viewing figures have been as high? Somehow I doubt it.
All that said, the RFL organised this particularly badly, even by their standards. 6 Nations and a big North West football derby the same weekend? That was always going to make a huge dent in the attendance. Perhaps the football was unforseeable, I have no interest in the game so wouldn't know when the fixtures are announced, but the 6 Nations clash was unforgiveable.
No matter how much the regular fan sees empty seats at the ground as a sign of failure, the real measure of success is how much money the weekend made or lost.
£1.25 million isn't an amount to be trifled with, is it? The game is about being a sucessful business, not just a sport.'"
Can I ask the £1.25 million if accurate is for who's benefit?
If its the RFL then the SL clubs lose out technically as what would Wigan/Saints/Bradford/Leeds?Cas etc.. have got for these derby games at home?
Or is Uncle Nige going to distribute this out to all these clubs?

| I don't have to work very hard for £20 so it was not much of a worry to me. What was a worry tonight was Salford and the hatred by some Saints fans towards Kyle Eastmond. I have never heard a set of fans vent their anger at a coach at half time and I have never heard a set of fans slate one of their own when they are so far in front in a game. Two things. I'm glad I am a Leyther and another I am not sure about liking the Willows any more. Oh sorry there are three things. The third is I don't want to drink so much before a game again.

its not just saints fans.
Im sure you've visited other MBs and read the same thing.they really are rapped up in ther own little sl bubbles.
The sl world should be begging this lad to stay in the game.
Never mind though,it will be union and his gain and sl's loss and i for one will have another little chuckle at the stupidity of this game.
