Well seems a good bet to me. Will Leigh win 6 more games than Fev next season ?



Have to say Dave I think Leigh will' whatever I'd rather have the money whoever wins the bet.





See you next season at the George or Top House.

Thought you'd like the bet Frank, I can't wait while next year, at least he games will mean something, is more than can be said or the last 3 years.



George/Top House or maybe both.

That's a daft statement Charlie..Platt has been outstanding since he singed for Leigh scored try's solid defence reads the game brilliantly top class centre Platt with a lot of top class games behind him no way will GW move him or Armstrong unless either have a injury or loss of form

Dave you know me by now , I always Back my Statements ,and although Francis is on a Winner either way I will accept your bet , Fev will be shadow of a team next season compared to last , you my Fev Friend ,HAVE A BET

.

Ian my old friend , you know I always give my OWN opinions , as I see it Armstrong and Worthington will be our 1st choice centres next year , we will have injuries though and Platt will get his chance , along with others , we now have a Big Decent Squad , im not Knocking Platts ability , and agree he has played very well since his arrival at the LSV , but he can also play in other positions

.Charlie knows .

My own view is that the starting centres should be Platt and Armstrong. Worthington needs to force his way into the team.

You could be right , I just think that after paying a Fee for Worthington ,Paul will give him first chance for the Centre spot and the number 3 Squad Shirt ,though Squad Shirts mean nowt .

Always hard to say who'll be starting at the beginning of a season. Rowley will be getting them to do whatever he wants to see in pre-season to decide who to start with. Don't think anything today with money or transfer fees will have an effect on who he picks, it'll be who's playing best.

As we have a large Squad already , and it is about to be increased by around 3 more additions , obviously that is why pre-season friendlies are arranged , I would think Paul already has a good idea of who his 17 will be next season , but with injuries and fine tuning coming into consideration the Starting 17 for the first game could be anybody .

Added to this, they are an opportunity for the squad to stake their place and impress with a performance that maybe exceeded PR's expectations and force his hand into giving them a starting place. Paul certainly isn't scared of providing opportunity for hard work and endeavour

We will have three or four not so friendlies to see who will be the starting thirteen and there's a very good chance that it will change over the season. Two or three bad games for any player next year could see him dropped. Life's a bitch but you just got to deal with it.

You will lose that bet

. We wont lose 7 games again and you wont go the season losing only 1 while going almost injury free.



Fev wont have another season as bad as this one. So many off field distractions and injuries this season its unbelievable. We will be a much better team next season. Nicholson and Walmsley season long injuries in the pre season friendlies. Dale, bostock, Medeika, flanagan, all had season cut short due to injury + Cording was out long term and returned for last 2 games. We also had all the bollox with flipflop resulting in us releasing or loaning out Briggs, Helliwell, Bennion, Saxton and Etu.



If you think you will be ahead of us by same margin in 2015 your deluded. We will improve much more than you lot will next season. Thats not saying we will be better than you, I just think there much more room for improvement from us. I cant see us losing to the bottom of the league next season and that gap will close
