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.

Leyth 26 Batley Giants 8

Add to that Barlow not taking a pay cut to join them, Leigh must have spent a lot of money for this season. I guess that is who Mark Aston was having a pop at when he mentioned about teams putting all their eggs in one basket.

Anyway Im going to go for a Batley shock in this one as Leigh seem to have problems with in fighting and also havnt really set the world alight pre-season against some poor teams.

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

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.

Greg , how could you know about the finances of Leigh centurions . The club as a robust financial structure spread across a competent BOD who have put in place a financial structure that is not supported by one person .

Other sporting clubs would be wise to follow this Buisness plan then our game would be in a healthier position

I dont know nothing about Leigh`s finances but I hear what players are asking for and a lot of the time they get somewhere near what they are asking. On that note its not hard to see that Leigh will have spent a fair wedge this season with the players they have brought in. Its really not rocket science.
