Really? What a weird fake account to create

Reckon it is probably someone very very close to the Toronto setup or even from inside it. Maybe someone who is an expert at 'leaking' information.

As I said, Toronto haven't announced either of them, it's a fake Twitter account that's announcing signings. Even Johnny Pownall - who's been named on the same account - has replied saying its a snide site. I'm guessing it's a leyther that's set it up, as there's a tweet on there with the hashtags #morals and #ethics

They've basically gone through the entire squad tonight and are currently trying to get 50 retweets before they announce a 'huge' signing. Currently on 11 retweets

Pownall Worthington Dixon sounds about right for the next 3. Pownall has barely played Dixon and Worthington already replaced.

I want the Toronto Tossers in the Challenge Cup at LSV.

Didn't the Official Toronto account state that it was a fake account too. Not managed (or tried) to shut it down though have they.

That account is definitely fake but it is clearly somebody with inside knowledge at Toronto.

Seems like a convenient way of leaking news without being officially connected to the club.

They haven't even kicked a rugby ball yet and I am already taking a severe dislike to them.

Some very underhanded stuff going on right from the start when Rowley walked out back in February with a lot of it seeming to target Leigh in particular.

Don't forget the Emmitt debacle either. I think Jukes and Derek have shown up to now that they can and will deal with anything Rowley tries to disrupt the club. From the Brierley leaks to the Sky camera incident to the Emmitt lies.

I would be surprised if we see any of the Toronto brigade in the middle 8s. Of the announced leavers up to now only Armstrong has stated he still has a job to do at Leigh before he moves on. Also thought Dixon had one of his less impressive games for us on Sunday.

I bet they don't tweet on their official site the Championship Coach and Player winner 2016..

If that fake account is being run by someone from Leigh, they need to give their head a wobble.

Also - we haven't signed a replacement for Dixon in the 8s. Tickle won't play second row

It's a parody.. Gareth Hocks is quite funny..Do we have to become stuck up this season or something?

I do apologise for talking bo77ocks then. My point was that the club already seem to have moved to bring in replacements as there is a doubt as to how much stomach these players will have for the fight ahead.

As you say not managed to shut it down. They also link to it on the official twitter. So it is officially fake but unofficially, who knows?

Fair point. Personally, I wouldn't like to see Worthington dropped, even if he is moving on. He's been our best centre this year, since moving to left side.

And there's no questioning his commitment - he gives nothing less than 100%, every game. Maybe it's all down to how these players conduct themselves, after they've signed? Although they will have to learn quickly, how to conduct themselves - after all, they are joining a club with very high moral and ethical values!

This what i was saying last week before everyone slagged me off.
Also hearing Liam has been suspended
Smoke and mirrors

Wouldn't have thought it was standard protocol to advertise oneself for another club whilst still under contract.

Ironically, it would not be for the first time in his Leigh career either.

It is an important time. We need everyone fully focused or they may as well not be around.

There seems to be so much concern about what PR and Toronto are doing and who is taking the Canadian Dollar? Personally I don't care, we are Lucky to have a guy like Derek in charge who will just replace them with better players ,which in most cases he has already done, have we missed the likes of Beswick,Emmitt, Pownall,and co, a resounding NO,will we miss Kay,Dixon, and Worthington if he goes ,again a resounding NO,we will move on ,progress , develope, and improve,nobody can stop the Centurions Juggernaut,let the Toronto Train move on,when they arrive we could be separated by 2 divisions,I'm more concerned about what is happening now, when we can attract guys like Tickle, Dawson, Maria,and Mitch Brown,added to the quality squad we already have,I for one won't miss the Toronto bound players, they would struggle to get into our team anyway.Bon Voyage is my message.

Absolutely Charlie ! Exciting times for Leigh RL.

In addition to Charlie's post, Richard Whiting has been solid , but if we are all honest he hasn't actually set the championship on fire.

He is coming to the end of his career but will still be a good signing for any League 1 side for 12 months. So Toronto will get some mileage out of him.

My concern was having them on the field come the 8's. Those questions have been more than answered.Bring it on.

is whiting still with you guys ?

Not played for a fair few weeks and recently had an operation on his hand and pins put into his fingers.

Not sure if he will be able to play any further part this season unfortunately.

Would be a good option to have though if he recovers in time due to his versatility.
