Well, you tick the stadium box, without having to build one out of origami

You contribute to the comp (mainly by providing players for other clubs to poach), your community team (IIRC) recently won an award and you have a steady fan base. I really think that if the RFL are going to promote 1 club, it should be you, but if it's 2.....you are sure to get in.

Steve is a very astute businessman, and he has brought an extremely professional approach to the club. With him at the helm I can see us getting a license next time round.

Sure it came out when Cullen was on about no-one getting to training etc, said basically we all train together so part time is best for everyone IIRC! Plus it would save us money which can only be a good thing! No-one else in this division runs as many full time contracts so doubt players would walk away aswell!

A teenage school project would have been better. As for Allan Rowley, he came out with a statement that was universally condemned by almost the whole of Rugby League and embarrassed the club of Leigh. Most people see him as indicative of how unprofessional Leigh are. He might be a nice bloke but he should have left the club. He is hampering any chance you could possibly have of applying for Super League.

You are talking a load of crap.



The presentation was as good as any and was very well received.



Alan only said what everyone including the vast majority of RL fans from Widnes thought but he had the guts to say it, unprofessional possibly but when has it been a crime to stand up and be counted.



If brown nosing gets you into SL, your club is doing a great job,with half the Sky team on your side and a former chum as your coach, you are half way their

And where would you rather be?



Diplomacy is an art my friend, Leigh could have done with some at the time of the announcements.

Very funny but unlike many on here and other sites I've already been to most of them , but thanks for the offer

seriously...I believe there is a place at the top table available to many teams outside SL and just because you're not there now, doesn't mean you wont get there. But...rants like the one from your representatives when you didn't get a place HE THOUGHT you deserved will not do you any favours in future Licencing rounds.

Rather than bitching about Celtic (or us or the frog), I would think there were targets nearer to home that should be looked at. Those clubs with oragami stadiums (they look good on paper) and other failings are more likely to fall that Catalan (good crowds, good results) Quins RL (b4stard child of the RFL and SKY) and Celtic (Like they will admit they made a mistake). There are at least 3 clubs in the same "c" bracket as us that have yet to deliver on the biggest promise......stadia and you have one that is spot on.

We had one last time



Problem is the RFL promised that all criteria would be fairly judged so when you are stood in front of a 95 % completed stadium with 6 months before a ball is kicked and they refuse to let it be part of your application it is understandable that people are not too happy



Doubt very much Alan's outburst will make any difference to us getting back into SL



That will only happen if somebody goes tits up financially

So you think that a press conference to answer questions was the sum total of clubs applications for SL



Idiot



I dont remember seeing anybody condemn him except a few fans on here , mostly fans of clubs that had got a franchise , in fact the vast majority of fans of the clubs that missed out were in support of what he said , especially Widnes fans



As I said your Mr O Connor rang him to congratulate him on having the balls to stand up for what he and many of your fans believed , I have no doubt that had Widnes got the spot Alan would have congratulaed them

Where did he say that then? He said he saw your presentation, he didn't say it was the sum total of your application. But it certainly speaks volumes when the details of your club's assets were presented so poorly.
