I never for a moment expected all 16 will stay whatever happens. I just want a team on the pitch that will compete and wear the shirt with pride. If that means us blooding some youngsters then so be it.

With the reserves we had running its the likes of Pownall & Briscoe that will have to make the step up now. Are there any other prospects from the reserves that could make the plunge? If we are lucky enough to keep Donlan then Pownall could be one of our wingers imo

Isn't that part of the reason Haven went bust, by having too many travelling players last year?

I'd like to think we'll at least have the following guys (if we manage to stay afloat)



Donlan (if he chooses to do another season)

Pownall

Littler (already contracted)

Ridyard

Higson

Briscoe

Nicholson (alreay contracted)

Bibey (already contracted)

Duffy

Taylor

Goulden



There are others I'd like to stay but aren't sure they will or even agree to new terms so we'll just have to sit tight and hope but the above wouldn't be a bad starting point.

we also have a couple of other youngsters on contract but a full list isn't available as yet

Good to hear Fred

Like everyone else on here i want to see a competative team at Leigh next season , we must try to get the players signed on as soon as poss our rivals will not be sympathectic to us , so hopefully we cant act soon .

Tommy Goulden would play for Nowt

I just want to be entertained , and will support whoever will be wearing the shirt

However bad it is I have seen worse 1994 for 1 the likes of will never be seen again, where are the players going to go as i see it no club has any money have they so i reckon we'll still be up there anyway.

I seem to remember IM saying that Craig Briscoe is also under contract.

1 of the 1st we need to resign along with Riddy IMO.
