I don't post that often but always came on to have read 3/4/5 times a day but find myself drifting away now, for 2 reasons, firstly as has been stated if your view didn't fit or you criticised the club or anything Leigh RL related one person in particular would always be there to say 'if you think you can do it better give it a go'.

the more recent reason is every other thread gets turned into a private joke or a Frank love in (no offence to Frank intended, you seem like a decent bloke).

You go on about there not being a clique but there is, and it does not help!

I raised this a few weeks back, this is an independent board.

Post what you want, when you want.

And be happy!!

I have been an 'outsider looking in' since I moved to Welshpool. I've only been able to get to two games since I moved, so I feel I have no right to comment on games I haven't seen, player selection, or the ref's performance, which is why you rarely get a post from me any more. But it DOESN'T mean I no longer care about the club I've supported for just short of fifty years .... As for 'cliques', well I'm a member of a forum devoted to the breed of dog I have, and if you think there's a clique on here, just try visiting that one!

Is it Woof?

I actually like to hear the views of our 'far away' posters especially those who have listened via Centurion Radio or viewed Freds DVD. To me a fan miles away who takes time out to follow Leigh is every much a supporter as me who lives 2 miles away.

Absolutely spot on (not that I have any personal bias in that as someone who supports a football team 209 miles away from my front door in Leyth ), the views from afar can quite often offer a different perspective from those 'in the thick of it'.

I wouldn't say any constructive criticism has ever been shouted down on here either, some of the pricing debates on here this season have been absolutely first rate in offering cases from both sides, and it seems clear to me that the club have acted on that when they've seen fit. This forum has certainly broadened my personal 'base' in terms of getting to know fellow Leythers over the years and I'd hate for it to get anything other than an entirely positive reputation.

So let me get this right. In order for this forum not to feel too cliquey we must not hate SL and the RFL too much. Even though most of us just love RL full stop. Never mention the Acorn stuff. I say make it a class A and a long jail term for users and dealers. We need to be able to just use a emoticom to answer every thread posted on here ( against the rules) so people feel wanted. Oh and we have to hate Frank. I now feel like I am either at the United Nations or at an AA meeting. Jesus H Christ get a grip people.

This will do for me on this particular subject
