cant be any worse

I'll be signing up tomorrow without hesitation.



Leigh Centurions should also get behind this initiative in my opinion. It's time the club stood up for it's people in this kind of manner.

Our Town, Our Team, Our Dream.

and I would support you, Tyldesley should be in Salford

swinton might argue against that point

I know it was a bit flippant but its not exactly the best bit of political agenda is it?



If he/she is serious, a bit of homework would have been an idea. The hearts in the right place but it's no weight behind it at all other than romance, local pride, and ''Blame Wigan'



Maybe looking into what is generated from the townsfolk in taxes and what is invested back, what opportunities there are from the NWDA or EU, that kind of thing. How can we sustain education, health, housing? Simple things like that.



If you're going to do it, do it properly.



It might be taken more seriously by folk up the food chain than saying 'Leigh is good because the land is flat'.

And with the world being flat, it makes us the centre of the world. A flat capper's dream, so to speak.

a small bang can start an avalanche mate

Won't happen mate, as ideal as it sounds.



Folk have continued to vote the same useless local coucillors (coz me dad voted labour, and his dad, and his dad) in these parts for years, and in return they've done nowt but turn up to committee meetings and eat the butties.



Who's pointing the fingers at them? What has your local councillor done about your ward? Do you ever see them other than at voting time? Do they ever get together, go out, and try and attract outside investment?



Until they wake up and realise they are toothless and have allowed the town to decline then there's no chance of anything changing.



But no, we still vote them in, time and time again.

not me mate.until this town is out of the clutches of that town i will never vote locally and more than likely never vote nationally

Trouble is Steve whats the alternative? saying that I e mailed my three ward councillors re the Leigh East 'situation' only the two tories replied, the community action guy hasn't as yet and its well over a week ago, ive never voted tory in my life and wouldnt do so nationally but locally well....
