Budgie...I'm like you I can't be doing with searching for it....but should somebody care to share a link or tell me where to look that'd be a start!

Re: Banter page : Wed Oct 22, 2014 8:43 pm  

you have to be a registered member on that certain bit of the facebook site so that means links cant be posted, to be honest its all a storm in a teacup with people misquoting and misunderstanding or just being downright bloody minded over certain posts, so much so that I have chucked in even going on it anymore, which is a pity as there could have been some good stuff on there if it had been used properly and not used as a political bandwagon for sob stories.

Not wanting to generalize folk, but as regards to Leigh Centurions, not interested in any the 'politics', all that matters to me is what happens 'on the field'....guess some fans are not like me.
When my mate Mike Callaghan was the commercial manager, he used to contact me about some sponsor packages that hadn't been sold - days before a game, so me and my mates would 'chuck in' for one at a reduced rate. We had some great days/nights out, but when you meet some players/directors etc (after a few beers) not everyone is to your liking. But I guess 10+ years ago, there was no social media, to post gossip/$hite !
More than happy just be a 'North Stander' and watch some amazing Rugby League !

Surely to long in the tooth Leigh fans this type of nonsense at Leigh is nothing new? i just hope it doesn't have the same outcome as history shows it has in the passed when the team are doing so well.

I think this thread should be locked. It isn't good to see dirty washing being aired in public at any time but especially after such an excellent season. Representatives of the club shouldn't be exchanging their views on this forum or Facebook or Twitter. It's totally unprofessional and gives the club a bad image.

However it has it's uses and they can get messages out .
Also it's hard not to react when someone says something that's not correct, don't forget we have been In this position ourselves when Steve was a Director , so I understand how hard it is ........

I stand by my posts on Facebook if genuine Leigh fans want to invest in the club LISA should be the vehicle for that. The clubs fans input will grow a lot more with 200 new LISA members rather than 1 player sponsor that would get filled with a business any how!!

I would agree with you if the suggestion had been about making a regular monthly/annual payment into the club but it wasn't. This was about a few fans wanting to put in a small amount as a one off payment to sponsor a player. That has nothing to do with LISA.

I'm not knocking LISA by the way, I think it is a great thing but this is completely seperate
