Little old Leigh beat Wigan twice in one season, only three times in a year, a finals match, could make me happier!!!

Great atmosphere at Leigh. They are doing good things.

Teams like Leigh, Wakefield and hull kr are a breath of fresh air and are leading the way for teams in England to grow their support base and brand.

The match winner by Leeds was a contender for try of the year.

The match winner by Leeds was a contender for try of the year.

Was a cracking try. We fluffed 4 try scoring opportunities which ultimately cost us the game. Oh well the run had to end sometime, better now than in the finals!

Another full house with awesome atmosphere.
They need a new main stand

Leeds topple league leaders HKR in front of a sold out Craven Park, Leigh beat second place Wigan in front of a sold out Leigh Village, HFC lose at home yet again, Hudds beat Cas in the cellar dweller battle, Salford showed some ticker in a loss to Wolves and Dragons returned to losing ways with a hammering by resurgent Wakefield. Brings the table closer together with 4 clubs still capable of winning the League Leaders Shield and 8 of the 12 in with a shot at the play offs.

Magnificent spectacular Leeds try to win the game at Craven Park. So heart-warming to hear the home crowd's appreciation. Locals, as usual, convinced every pass in the move was forward.

Often said of RL that it's a simple game. As opposed to the fiendishly complex RU. Not true and merely a reflection of fear and loathing among the respective fanbases. HKR fans are some of the least complex personalities one could ever have the misfortune to encounter.

Hull kR have sold out all remaining home games and will be adding a 1000 seat temp stand to south end for last 3 home games and the playoffs. This will see the stadium attendance record beaten again.

Saints down Leeds 6-0 in excellent defensive display.
Move into top 4.

 

[Vlad59]

This rounds looks like 60000 depending on how small the Salford crowd is

Leigh need to target the nearby by bigger town of Bolton and the Bolton metropolitan region for their academy teams.

They should also target the same region for new fans as well.

I went to this game fully expecting to see a rare treat in modern years of us beating saints.....3 hours wasted drive FFS

Not a poor quality game ...reasonably decent defense from both and lowish errors but it was dull

Fish where the fish are is a term that gets bandied about and it may have merit.....our heartland teams are surrounded by very close areas nearby with minimal league

Salford crowd 2051. Lordy lord

Wouldn’t Bolton RL fans already be aligned? to Wigan maybe?

Most probably but Leigh is actually closer to Bolton.

there’s maybe some older generation Leigh fans in Bolton too.
