As i've already said, just because they've not ben announced doesn't mean that people haven't signed. Although they seem queitly confident on the leigh board that he's going to them.

They do every year

The truth is at this moment in time only Penky and a few others will know where he's playing next year. The last 2 years I think Penky has been the first to re-sign well before the season finishes, if we haven't heard that he's re-signed before the regular seasons finished it could be time to panic!

Why panic? if Penky does leave us so what. Yes he is a good player and it would be a shame to loose him. However it wouldn't be the end of Fax if he went, given the quality of player that M H and M C seem to be able to attract to the club i'm for one am confident we will have a great squad next season.

I don't think you realise that Penky is a Leigh lad, regularly attends matches and his Dad is a sponsor at the club. Wouldn't surprise me if he signed for us in the near future.

we had this last year... he was going to sign as he could play in your great stadium... decided to stick with a club that gave him another chance, a club on the up, a club that will be challenging for honours.

Being linked to a move to Leigh will achieve only one thing

I fully expect Sean to rip us apart on sunday , even more so than usual to prove a point

Seen it happen so many times

Luke Robinson is a Halifax Lad, Never played for us though, but surely with such High Calibre of Huddersfield Youth Players coming through (Tom Hemmingway ) then on the theory of some Leigh Fans, We must be getting Luke Robinson at some point.

Its all Bullocks, without paying massive wages why would Penky leave a winning team where he's settled?

To look for a bigger challenge, once you have nailed your GF place/NR Cup win, that ensures your franchise application?!

Seriously, I fancy 'Fax are concentrating on this season, whilst quietly working towards building next season's squad.

Like I've said previously, you are worrying about who will sign up for next season, while we are still trying to complete this season's squad!!!

Maybe the club are saving any re-signing announcements so that they can be made to the fans prior to Sunday's game.

Are they? I must have missed that one!

I think Penky won't leave Fax but if he does, it would be to a SL club. I really hope he stays though, we were the club that rescued his career after his two year ban and made him captain, I feel he owes us some loyalty.

Wouldnt it be good to announce Penkys new 2 year deal before the game Sunday just to see the looks on those little Leigh faces.

But would 'Fax allow Leigh access to their P/A system, to announce something like that?
