Looked about 350-400 of them. A lot more than any Championship side brings to our place.

How rude?!

I was a bit surprised we weren't in there as our support has been accused of 'going South' several times

all sounds very encouraging. I don't care who Salford put on the pitch, I assume (as no pro player deliberately sets out to lose) that Salford expected to win this game with the players selected. We also had people that did not play (Govin, Paul for two)

We seem to have a good, young, local, bunch of players. Hopefully this will get the fans coming back in numbers.

Believe me this Leigh team will win the Championship.

Hope they do this with the away supporters for every game.

Sounds like a good start for you guys no matter the opposistion overall, cracking attendance that too.

From reading seem't like Leigh maybe relying on a few more youngsters to lead the way next year which is good to see and by the sounds of it they are doing well... team on paper reading certainly seem's a bit more exciting with plenty of options too. Littler in the backrow, I think the LSV will be an entertaining place in 2011! Maybe certain Champs could be a bit far as Fax have recruited well IMO after a great last two years, hopefully we'll be stronger and more consistent and we can have a really open Championship

Looking forwards to the Warrington game now! We won't give you such an easy ride though

Friendlies mean nothing to be honest. Dont get carried away. I went to day and it was a good performance but nothing to write home about.

To put it into perspective Leeds lose many friendlies but generally win when it matters.

It is what was given out, and what the Head Steward told me, although Braddy argued it was 2,232 !



Don't think it was flashed up on the big screen though.

Was it a good atmosphere in the north stand Matt,

it was a good crowd for a friendly in my opinion.

well ian i can concur with frank, i was really impressed, yes there are clearly loads of scope for improvements, like some soft defence for their second try, but overall i can see alot of promise in this squad.

mick govin injured, well hold the front page. what's up with him, is he on pay as you play, i am sure i read that her was, hope so.

One friendly win against a reserve Salford team, and you are going to win the league?

At least theres a chance we may win ours, what say you?

To say top 4 is more realistic mate.Depends how injuries go and the squad to be honest.It is a tight league, so i would never bet with a league where the salary cap is so low.Even teams like Batley will have a strong team, but if was not for the cap they be nowhere near teams like Widnes.

Batley spent 25% of what Widnes spent in 2010 and won the cup final. The only think the cap does it stops you going bankrupt!!

How many of these are inexperienced reserves?
Ashley Gibson, Jodie Broughton, Chris Nero, Sean Gleeson, Stefan Ratchford, Matty Smith, Lee Jewitt, Adam Sidlow, Wayne Godwin, Ryan Boyle, Stephen Wild.

Who cares we be in Superleague in 2012.

.....and getting your ar$es served to you on a plate week in week out, instead of the couple of times a season we play you at the moment!!

Don't let the door slam on your way out!!

Well done leythers, couldn't make the game due to work. So my jinx still stands, havn't watched us win since May.

Not being funny jonny but can you stay away more often then.

Unfortunately I got a season ticket for crimbo, sorry!

Thanks Steve, cannot wait till my first game its going to be the Quins game i think, maybe see you for a pint in the goose mate.

Only joking mate, your a true fan jonny.

and this is the real point, Salford can try and hide behind the fact that many of their first team were missing (which is true), but looking at the above list, tells a somewhat different story!
