I also look forward to seeing ' LSV - The home of Leigh Centurions RLFC' emblazoned on the front of the stadium some day soon.

Noted.

I acquired it from the brewery who owned Leigh Arms just before they closed it at the time they hadn't sold it so it was gonna stay shut. I'm with the same brewery they rang me to go in and see if theres anything I wanted and then they'd give me a price I took the picture and other smaller pictures plus tables, chairs and glasses.

Thank You for the answer.

One used to be up on the walls of the "old" board room at Hilton Park, it's was the room with the sloping ceiling near the offices upstairs

Keith why would you want "LSV Home of the Leigh Centurions ", on the Leigh East Clubhouse ?

I suggested 6 inch nails Fred, much quicker, plus once they were in, they'd have to cover them with something, like perhaps a RL themed picture , Dessie or Mick Martyn perhaps

So what do they suggest? ,blue tack

Toothpaste?

Again in an open LISA meeting some years ago Simon Toone said that as long as the Centurions obtained the required permissions then a sign could be erected, as for how could they put things up in the legends bar I will not put forward suggestions all I am doing is relating what has been said, nothing more nothing less.

Andy,

Ages ago, I thought LSV gave us the go ahead to use old photos etc on movable screens, in the Banqueting suite. If there is any objection to permanent memorabilia in any of the bars/suites, can we not do that?

Simon Toone has also confirmed to me that they want the photographs inside the Legends bar, there are caveats but they can be overcome, I would hope we enter next season with a real 'Legends' feel inside there.

Going back to the original post
I thought Roy Jackson ordered two lino carvings from Gerrard Dinsdale - art teacher at St Mary's - one for the Garrick and one for the club.
I hope the club still has its copy - the copy in the Garrick was sold at auction when the Garrick closed; suppose Jimmy Wilcock could have bought it, hence it being in the Leigh Arms and now the Avenue.

They are lino carved by the art teacher from St.Mary's high and clearly signed but many people have told me there were three but have also told me various places they've been or are. The strangest being a curry house in Atherton

What ever happened to the clubs hall of fame from woodys bar at HP? There where a few photographs in there.

I remember the big wembley picture hanging in the old Hilton Lounge for years.

massive club badge on the stadium front with HOME OF LEIGH CENTURIONS underneath it.

Only two were made and as far as I am aware it's the only time gerrard dinsdale Did two the same. He only did it then because Roy purchased quite a few others to hang in his club.
If I had a wall big enough to take it I would be interested
Do we assume the club no longer has their copy?
If so they should buy this one, or LISA should and hang it in the Legends bar.oo

I doubt that ' blue tack ' would hold it up to tell the truth

Roy Jackson used to own a night club in Atherton (please do not laugh at the thought of a night club in Atherton)

It was either the Caroline club or the Keg o Kee.

Is that the one that became Sidroys restraunt? I remember their being a large picture with names of the Wembley 71 squad on it, on the stage at Sidroys.

Thanks Rob, It may have been Sidroys that Roy Jackson owned.

When I asked for people not to laugh about Atherton having a night club it was because I am a bit embarrassed about the latest plans submitted for approval for the building.

IT IS FOR A SWINGERS CLUB.

Are you making an offer for the Picture or the Swingers Club?.

Maybe with the money they get for it (no chance of them donating it) with the proceeds, they could actually clean the pub, or even put some 'disinfectant cubes' in the urinals. It's a stinking pub, that has lots of $hit tribute bands on. The lager is awful, sometimes 'dirty glasses'....apart from that, the pub is fine !!

Keith....you naughty man !!

Crikey.....I live such a 'sheltered life' compared to you RUGBY lot !!

Love it.
