| Quote ="furryenzo"It annoys me as a Swinton fan to see so much negativity on here about us.
I dont know how many of you know the details, but we have significantly reduced costs at the LSV due to only one stand being opened on match days (except im guessing when we play you).
Our chairman John Kidd isnt the richest man in the world but he does have money, and hes Swinton through and through, he not a business man looking to make any significant profits for himself.
If any of you actually read the article on Tom Armstrong you will understand that he is concentrating on his studies and only playing part-time. Now im assuming in his eyes looking at Leighs position they couldnt garuntee him a contract and so hes looked elsewhere for assurance hes playing the highest level of rugby he can in his personal position. Being a saint helens lad the next obvious choice in our league would be us. And why not, a championship one winning side who have retained almost their full squad, with a few quality additions and a coach with a very good reputation and track record. Were not kidding ourselves, were not trying to get in S.L we want to produce an entertaining brand of rugby as we did last year and earn a respectable position in the Championship.
Our squad consists of young players with bags off effort but maybe not the most quality (who arnt demanding much money), quality experienced players i.e. Ian Watson and Mark Smith, (who at the back end of their careers arn't asking for much money, but are still motivated to play) and this year we are signing a handful of quality signings to strengthen the squad and add the extra push and spark needed at this higher level. These players may want more money but there are only a few. I.e Chaz I'anson and now Tom Armstrong (and as rumour has it a couple more of your lads).
We are not busting the bank and we dont have a hidden benefactor. We are just being run sensibly for a club our size and have realistic ambitions.'"
well you won't get any negative comments from me pal, any club who tries to improve, and providing exciting rl for their fans deserve all the credit, and when time allows and obviously leigh games i shall be down the lsv watching swinton.  |

A lot of players say he is weak and has favourites too. But thats probably what the 'not quite good enoughs' want. |

Sorry CC , I see MrM as very close to a certain current Swinton player who needlesly brought our former coach into it. I know Ste Mc is a very nice bloke, but I would take our former coach any day. Funny thing is I would also have liked to see that said player at the club in 2012, and I also understand our former coach thought he was too soft - something I didnt agree with. |

Mo , i hope everyone who posts on this board wants Leigh to do well ,im sure they do ,and i have posted my Ramblings on here many times , to try tolighten up the Forum , but recently our position , has been very worrying , hopefully now we can return to a more relaxed state , and have a laugh again .
I respect and listen to all oppinions of Fans on here , it would be boring if we all thought the same ,ive no axe to grind with anybody , lets all try to pull together and help the Club. |

Tom Armstrong's a good lad. I too am sorry that he decided not to join Leigh. (if he was offered the chance, that is)
However, I'm sure there are plenty other young players, just as good as Tom, who could be available to us.
