He or she could then make an announcement that there would be no announcement untill there is an announcement to be made, and this announcement is not admission that there will be an announcement about the announcement.

| Topics that people find boring are usually ignored, however this 'boring' thread could have been killed off in its infancy if a simple statement of [ufact[/u had been made by the club.

| But the club doesn't make comments on rumours or make any announcements instead their is information from coaches etc saying informal arrangements etc, but you cant dual reg from any other club, Thats not that informal is it.
Fax came and issued a statement about the Barlow to salford rumour to put things to bed so id didn't impact on season ticket sales, Some clubs do some clubs dont, Its not that long till the season starts so it will all come out in the wash, In the meantime i have sent a email to the RFL to ask them who has linked up with who so far as they would know this, If i ever get a reply i will let you know but i dont hold much hope.
It doesnt matter really though as most of the wigan youngsters are not in the same class as some of your squad anyway so its very unlikly you will see 5 unless you get ravaged by injuries which is always a possiblity.
This partnership thing will only help the SL teams and the lower Championship teams who will all be trying anything possible to avoid relegation next year into what is a truely aweful looking league.
Dewsbury, Rochdale, Whitehaven , Hunslet, York,
You can see the pattern and these clubs would have been clammering over each other to get signed up to this.

| No just post it on the website.
The 'There will be an announcement' system is ridiculous. Even worse is when it 'An important announcement'

| I have been thinking about the twinning situation and my opinion has mellowed somewhat.
I now believe a twinning with Wigan would be a good idea, I would also like to see a majority shareholding by Wigan as well. It is quite obvious we will never be allowed into SL so surely the best option is to see a few Wigan games at the LSV and watch some of the best youngsters perform week in week out, does it really matter what badge is sewn on the left chest, really.
I realise it would be hard for a few to accept but the majority will come to terms with it, I even believe crowds may increase if the Wigan ST allows access to our games.

Think Maurice was being sarcastic.
There are very few Leythers who would accept twinning with any other club.
Most on this board now realise that at our next fans forum this idea of Leigh twinning will be dismissed as ridiculous. One or two Fax fans need to realise that too but whatever is said Rhino will believe what he wants to believe and if you are as gullible as he is there's not much we can do to help.

| Interview with PR in the Reporter ,A couple of quotes , " Already I have identified with Shaun ( Wane ) 4 or 5 players who will be our potential DRs for 2013 and believe me the Leigh fans are going to be delighted " and another quote ,
" But just where they play are played or whether they are selected is entirely up to me . Wigan or any other club does not have any input into Leigh Centurions selections at all ,I take sole responsibility for that "
I hope that clears things up ( this quote from me )

Cheers Mate, thanks for the update , makes things a little clearer.
So its 4 or 5 contracted players from Wigan Warriors potentially playing for us next year.
I think its safe to say I don't share Pauls enthusiasm over this little snippet of news .

| Will the DC's still work the same way as previous seasons, where W1gan can take away players at will when approaching our next game? If so, how can PR decide if and when they play all the time?
Never liked DC's. Needs must I suppose.

Being a LEYTHER....that is HORRIBLE to read.
I HATE W**AN
HOPE THEY LOSE EVERY GAME THEY PLAY, I remember when we used to play 'em (not their academy side in a friendly)
WHY CAN'T WE HAVE THIS AGREEMENT WITH WARRINGTON, PIES didn't touch us with a 'barge pole' whem Millward was our coach, how pathetic is that - PIES can sod off.

| The reason is Wire have decided to "Twin" with Swinton.
The RFL have introduced this not our club.
For us it means we can not get DC players from clubs who have twinned with other Championship clubs.
PR will probably only use DC players if he thinks he has no alternative.
Would any Leyther object to Tom Spencer playing for us next season ?
Why hate Wigan if it temporarily suits us ?
We are where we are' but I think 'because of the squad we have assembled we will still win the league next season even without DC players.

More likely cos the club is in wigans sevice area.
The club plays out of a stadium owned and run by wigan,and apparently, the club have now been given a good financial deal to play out of that staduim.
No doubt there are one or two other things as well.

| There is no doubt from a council point of view Leigh is part of Wigan Council.
Mind you on refelction' if I recall Wigan have twinned with South Wales Scorpions so it makes my previous post look a bit strange' so maybe I am wrong about us only getting DC's from the Pies.
I still think however even without DC players Leigh have a better squad than last season.

| I don't understand all this " I hate Wigan " business ,I know some Wigan fans feel the same about us but it doesn't bother me in the least .I"m not fond of Leeds ,don't know why just like to see them lose, unless they are playing an Australian team but if we were getting some DCs from them it wouldn't upset me .I too think the squad we have is more than capable of winning silverware next season but injuries happen and thats when the DCs come in very handy .
