My Dad? If that's the case then it'll have to be East or he'll leave me out of the will.

East all the way for me. My Dad, my brother and my son have all been involved at some point so I've grown up being an East girl. I've no idea how the town became divided though and I was around when in the days before East when it was Leigh Juniors!

I had my wedding reception there 25 years ago last sept.

Miners all the way, East may have the best facilities however miners are by far the most successful. #EWB

It's one or the other, he can't do both?!

On what basis do you come to that conclusion? More modern, sure - a nice pitch, okay - but Miners senior section has more space for spectators and a decent surface these days. Miners clubhouse feels more like a proper club whereas East feels more like a community centre. And as for the junior facilities at Manchester Road, 3 mini pitches, 1 mod pitch, 2 full size along with the main pitch. Outside catering facility and commencement of extending the junior clubhouse. Not too shabby I'd say!

LMR junior section is the best dedicated junior facility in RL that I have seen.



A few tweaks here and there and its as near as damn it as good as some Pro football academies.



I didn’t know the club house was being extended, what are they having done Brad?

They are extending both storeys out into the car park - more changing rooms downstairs and a new kitchen and another lounge room upstairs. A lot of the funding is in place and work is due to start in the summer break.

No hes from Cheshire actually

There is a simple solution, do what I do, watch both.

So that accounts for his extreme right wing views.
