Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Dont worry Starbug, she will be taking the money off him for a pint :wink:


I have no doubt that when frank sees this he will be providing an equally ' flattering ' description of myself and suggesting that I am ' thicker ' in the wallet than him , dont believe it :wink:

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.


One of the real ' plusses ' of our good fortune from my point of veiw is this coming season I will get to visit a few places I really enjoy going , in no particular order Batley , Dooosbury , Keefly , Fev and Fax :wink:

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 :shock: :shock: :shock:
I have only just read this and apologise for any offence caused.

Maybe I should have expanded on my original response.

Leigh sign contracts with players. They can,t renege on them without risking litigation which would inevitably leed to them having to pay out those contracts in full without having the benefit of those players.

Wether they where arrogant in considering relegation a possibility perhaps they where but it happened and they could not go back on it.

My fellow Leyther Starbug hasn,t described me very well either. I do not wear a bobcap and next season I shall be wearing our new shirt.

My generosity is legendary and infact Starbug does owe me a pint but I would not mention it on the Leigh board because I,m too nice a person for that.

One final thing I don,t like John Smith,s bitter as I am a real ale fan.

Hope to see you next season when if I do I shall buy you a drink to show how sorry I am for offending you.

I'm more offended by your misuse of the comma, so you can buy me a pint as well. Or am I missing something here?

I have only been wrong once and thats because I thought I was wrong but I was wrong I was right!

Petty authoritarians aren’t man enough to challenge the actions of a person face to face; instead they incite a forum of rumour, innuendo and half truths, and impose rude sanctions to discourage those who dare question fairness.
