they usually play on the 'outside grass' pitch when the 1st team are at home.

Good luck Sam!

Glad to see he took it upon himself to ressurect the deal that both parties had tried their best to make a mess of by all accounts. We can't fault him for his commitment to his hometown club thats for sure.

Maybe you would'nt haha

I'll be there at one, just to get a good place to see the match, It's looks like one of the seasons biggest game's. Come on east show them all we are going to be NCL champs this year.

Well done to Millward for taking the hard-line in the earlier negotiations & finally nailing his target.

well its great that the lad has finally seen sense sand signed for the greatest club Leigh centurions, well done sam

Hopefully with some good weight training behind him he''ll be a good player this season and for the future........ Hopefully he'll break in the first team soon and show everyone that he's a super league class player!

He probably will. Let's hope the SL teams aren't watching him too closely!

Thats where he should end up Alan if his development continues at a pace he's set so far, but I think he will honour his two year contract first.

He he should do..... he's got alot of work to do yet before he gets to that level though...... hopefully Millwards guidence will get him to the appropriate level of playing

Agreed Fred - I think it's a tremendous coup for Leigh, to attract him to LSV, though. (along with the other good young Leythers that have signed)

lets hope he's under a long contract. and if we make him a better player we get some good money for him

Two year contract I believe and I think he's either just turned or very near his 19th birthday.

WILL WE GET SOME DOSH FOR IM

For Ian Millward - I doubt it?!

i wouldn't worry about hopkins shooting off to SL just yet, chris hill is imo clearly a SL standard player, but he's stayed loyal, if hopkins follows in hills footsteps and developes like chris, he won;t go far wrong.

He's already 19 will be turning 20 soon, May I think?

I know for defo he is 20 on feb 17th 2010 can't wait to get started.

For a fee???????

Not after his two year contract as has been indicated he will be well past 21, and why stand in a players way as long as its done correctly.

Was thinking more of during the 2 year period Fred.
If the lad moves on after that good luck to him

There could be a SL clause? but I dont know.

.

I agree but if there is a SL clause (and to be honest if i'd have been his 'agent' i'd have insisted on one) in the contract then there is nothing that can be done, not that it matters anyway the lad wishes to play for his home town team, then lets all leave the speculation alone and let him do what he does best, after all je may well be playing in SL in two years WITH US

Thought there may be Keith as there usually are, thanks for clearing that up.
