First time I have seen it. It looks very nice. I will NEVER forget our day out at Leigh though. That takes some beating!

The soaking cup visit? or the boiling hot and cold league visits?

Agreed with the ground.. would have been better with a standing at the side mind.

Nice ground and watching the Leigh v Featherstone game on Sky Bill Arthur was definitely impressed.

I remember their ‘old’ ground and asking for a pie also daring to question the flavour of its contents only to be told “its pie flavour” microwaved to perfection though, molten lava crust yet still frozen on the inside.

Can't remember whether it was our first or second league visit there that year, but it was boiling hot everywhere except that one end of Leigh's ground, which was inexplicably freezing. I shivered through 80 minutes thre and then spent the rest of the weekend 3000 foot up in Snowdonia in shorts and t-shirt.

First time it poured it down, second time the wind was so cold and the third time it was nice weather and Ashley got 3/4 tries
