I see the club's logo not the town's crest.

Have to agree. The crest is on there but very vague, and only showing part of it in a light grey on a white background. Looks like an unfinished design to me.

Apoligies had to go back and have another look, I was looking at the position I would expect the "Crest" to be over the left breast, on that respect I would have been happier to have them swapped around.

Incidently I may be in a minority but I do not think that our name has a great deal of relevance today, I could understand it at the time of its origin as the club and indeed the game had just celebrated its 100th biirthday, this next season we could be the 1.23 Centurions.

But the branding name is relevance and to change that would be a costly outlay. You're not really going to go and buy a scarf or pint pot from the market stall with nothing on it.

Then again we could always revert to the Comics or Bears.

Should have ditched it late 90's too late now just need to develop the brand further, no need to be on the shirt though. LBnB coat of arms over the heart with Leigh Centurions printed under it, like Wiggin do.

Come on Mo ,the most prominent place for the brand is surely on the shirt?

Re: 2018 home shirt - whats your thoughts : Thu Nov 09, 2017 4:43 pm  

Yet its not on Wiggins shirt, and the Warriors brand is more well known than ours. LBnB coat of arms with letters under it 'Leigh Centurions'

They could play in bin bags for me as long as they do the business on the field

Even the Grandchilder go and watch 'Leigh' - Never has anyone said to me they are going to watch the ' Centurions'. Not even the kids.

Do we even have a junior Centurions club? If the young ones do not recognise it and the club are not prepared to fully embrace it then I fail to see the point of continuing the Moniker in all honesty.

It could just be used as nickname in 'Leigh RLFC - The Centurions' in the same way it as 'Everton FC - The Toffees' or 'West Ham FC - The Hammers' or 'Leicester City FC - The Foxes' , I am sure you get the point.

PS it is a nice shirt for the modern game
