Did Leigh East own the ground at Grassmere St or just lease it? If so did they lease if from the Council? Surely there must be compromise to be had to satisfy all parties. For the good and future of rugby league then we can't afford to let a club like Leigh East go to the wall. Everyone really needs to get behind this cause.

I would suggest the council do have another option, as I said time for everybody to publically state where they stand

I would imagine that the Council have a plan B for the site, they are devious not daft. This can be a massive opportunity for the Centurions Community Trust to prove their worth to the local game.

Keith has my mobile number and we have been in contact, I have personally pledged support to him.



As the towns professional club Leigh Centruions needs a strong Leigh East as Indeed it needs all it's community partners so we shall help in any way possible.



Keep chins up guys,



Andy.

Tipster is right - this story really is staggering.



What happened to the London 2012 legacy of encouraging kids to participate in sports?



And what do we reckon is the Councils's plan B?

Email to all sent Keith - all the best mate

Thanks, typing through a red mist.

Absolutely Steve.



Someone who knows a little more about it than I do should go on there and start a thread to make other Leythers aware of what's going on. I'll do anything I can to help raise awareness of this issue.

I've sent my emails as I said, and posted on twitter with the #rugbyleague added plus my own tweets

I've started a thread on Leighlife but would appreciate someone who has more knowledge of the matter to add to it. www.leighlife.com/index.php?topic=32828.0
