One other thing for people to consider.

Isn't it rewarding failure, to allow Leigh to come back up?

hardly ' failure ' given the competitiveness of the Championship last season , with Leigh being relegated after winning 45 % of their games

Sorry but how many games you won makes no difference.
You went down because you were not good enough, as you and many Leigh fans has said.

So you think we should have declined the RFL's invatation to play in the Championship ?

I don't, and I don't suppose any club would turn down a chance at reinstatement. Can't blame Leigh for grabbing the opportunity!

No i don't think you should have.
No club would turn it down.

Its just a shame that this type of thing happens. But i can see worse happening in the future.
It would be long till a club goes under.

Starbug ..please don't take this as a go at the majority of Leigh Fans ..which it certainly is not ...you have no say in what your management choose to do as the vast majority of real RL fans do..and we all accept that ..

Indeed ,thank you for your honesty..its refreshing on here to see a supporter fight his corner for his club but accept the frailtiies in its arguments as you have done..

Unlike your other fan 'Frank B' who accused me of 'missing the point'- mon derriere ! Had my name been 'John Smith' I'm sure he would have found no opposition to my post ??

Shall I go and scrub the floors , wash the dishes and ensure the laundry is done now ?????

Which I'm sure he would have been happier with

Well I'm sure frank meant no harm , If you wish to chat with him about it , he will be the smallish skinny bloke circa 60 odd yrs old wearing Glasses , a replica 71 cherry and white hooped shirt , a bob hat with a rucksack on his back , carrying a pint , not hard to spot when we come up to yours next season , nail him for a drink , he's loaded

I am sorry to see Gatesheads position and Oldhams too.

Leigh are fortunate and I think their management have tried to pull a fast one, but regardless, the ball has bounced their way so good luck.

We've had some thrillers against Leigh in the past and I look forward to two more next year.
