Quote ="Starbug"Once again, W1g4n council made it quite clear to the directors of Sporting Club Leigh that if they refused to sign the agreement to play at the LSV, Hilton Park would have its H and S capacity reduced to 1,000 .
Now maybe Mike Nolan would have been willing to play ' Hardball ' with the council, maybe that is why he ran the club into the ground financially in 2002 to attempt to gain majority ownership , but he wasn't from the town and essentially it would not have affected him .
Maybe the place to look at the reasons the club had to give up its lease and therefore any potential ' windfall ' is with the people who were at the forefront of getting the LSV built, they are the ones who put the club in an untenable position, the Centurions are not the only ones who were promised things would be ' workable ' and ' viable ' only to find they are not'"
Glad to see something can bring you out of your self imposed exile Steve.
