I agree it will be close but I think our lads will get the win, I am not writing Batley off because they are a good side but its usually more towards the end of the season when they have won games against us as they get stronger as the season goes on, hopefully this year we will remain strong all through the season assisted by our larger than normal squad.
Come on lads cant wait for Sunday !!

Hes also a MOANER who thinks he is clever ,Charlie knows .As do some Fax fans .

Let's welcome our mates from across the forums we've got rid a lot of our own posters with the name calling and fights already folks !!!
Would be a boring forum if we all agreed on everything !!

Who asked you your opinion get back in the kitchen





I agree with that mate I don't think there'll be more than a try or 2 between both sides I'll go with 22-18 to us. I also agree with Dick Jones sentiments too everyone should be welcome to post on here regardless of what team you support even Wiggin fans

I agree with your point about visitors to this forum but Leigh will win comfortably on Sunday.

This squad of ours is far stronger than last season and Batley's isn't.

Batley won't lie down that's for sure, will be a tough game but as I say against teams based more on strength and power (as Batley have for the last few years) we have the pack to deal with it and the backs to capitalise and get round the bigger men and will win by a fair margin. As for the teams that play more creative fast passing out wide like Featherstone and Sheffield......mmmmmmm... I'm not so confident YET. We have the talent there to at least match them, but I'm glad we get a few games in against these weaker sides (and Batley, they definitely won't be a weak side) first.

How do you know that then? Just as a matter of interest?

Have you looked at our signings, their pre-season form, their careers?

Perhaps, just perhaps, we might actually give you a game this week. But don't hold your breath, eh?

He has an opinion John, as you and I do. Granted its normally a poor one but that's how he ended up ,living in a bed sit in Weaste

I expect a tough game that we have to work at to win, if we don't work hard enough we will lose but if we do I expect a good win - weather permitting

John I have seen Batleys squad and it is not that bad but remember I am Leyth daft.

Actually think our squad is better than last year, some real astute signings by JK.
We'll give you a helluva game but no predictions from me. And thanks to the Leythers who supported us in the GF last season. I will however say Dewsbury might just turn over Fev on their paddy field this weekend.

Don't say that John , im always trying to get him to hold his breath.As for you Bullfrogs ?I think you as always will be a difficult team to beat , but I do think we will beat you , by 10 .

A lot of singing needs to be done on Sunday and throughout the season, a crucial season. Can't wait now, very confident we can do something this year. We just need to get behind the lads! we've seen how they react when we're in full voice they love it.

Totally agree.

Would be nice to heard some singing the players say it inspires them too

I dont think Paul will be taking this one too lightly!
Decent squad JK has accrued.
Should be a close game IMHO

Batley are always difficult to beat

There is no 5 ticket option.

Think home advantage will get you over the line, TBH, but not by much.

I've got a feeling it will be a high scoring cracker, played in the best weather for weeks

Can't wait for Sunday, hope the weather holds off and we see a cracker of a game, with a Leigh victory of course !

no way, beat you villagers 20-0 last season when our players hadn't been paid for a month. Unless all those 6 Huddersfield Giants 'loanees' are superb players.

Dear Leigh fans,

'Greg' certainly wasn't my source and I'd like to put a very big distance between myself and this serial-troller.

Here's to a cracker tomorrow.

Good luck
Graeme

Looking forwards to tomorrow, expecting a good low scoring wrestle of a match.

I need cheering up after Thursday's farce, so feel free to buy me a drink if I happen to be empty handed!

Why would I bee your "source" in regards to Alex Brown?

I was talking Sam Barlow and the sort of money he is on and the money a couple of others were touting around for. Its really not that hard to work out Leigh will be treading a fine line.

Don't worry about Leigh Centurions RLFC & the BOM's stringent business plan our house is in order is yours?
