I'm assuming there isn't one already? Had a quick look and could find nowt. Makes sense to have an official thread since there seem to be plenty of egg chasing fans on here

 

Anyhow, this has just been announced:

Will be a fucking brilliant day out, that! Leigh had better make it there now (although if we keep sticking 52 past everyone we shouldn't have much trouble)

Great win by Leigh today at Salford, first time they have won there for forty years

Championship a realistic prospect?

I don't know, I don't go watching them, my mates and grandson does, I watch them on telly and I would love them to do well, I think Catalans are too strong, be great if they beat Saints next week to get to Wembley

 

 

They have a great chance next week, Saints have 2 players out injured and Leigh rested 2 yesterday, looking forward to a good game.

What a result today. Wonder who they want in the final?

Don’t follow RL, but nice surprise to see Leigh 2nd in the table, in the cup final and mostly Lancashire clubs in the top half of the table.

Wigan. Might as well after reaching this stage. Plus weirdly, now that Halifax are in the 1895 final, if Wigan get there then my entire stag do WhatsApp group will all be playing at Wembley on the same day.

I didn’t go to the semi as I was working, and in all honesty I’ve been having such a wrestle with all the rebrand bollocks that the Salford game last week was the first one I’ve been to all season. But I reckon the previous 31 years have earned me the right to enjoy Wembley, so that’s exactly what I’ll do (albeit a bit annoyed I’ll miss Cheltenham away now)

I’m exactly the same not a big RL fan, but really chuffed for Leigh. 👏

Leigh are the team I watched for a brief RL phase I went through some years ago. Fuck Wigan all the way to fuck and back.

Delighted for all involved, especially our own Mr O 

Wonder if leigh fans are disappointed its not their hugely succesful neighbours in the final, or is this seen as a more likely win

Fantastic drop goal today

I was genuinely disappointed. Never going to play there again in my lifetime so might as well have made it as big an occasion as that. Particularly as it would have meant my entire stag do would have been represented that day with a Leigh-Wigan final and Halifax in the 1895 final. Means the train down will be much quieter though!

Hope Leigh stuff the pie eating fuckers today

Same.

Oh dear, Leigh got ripped a new one

Leigh were never going to get anywhere near Wigan with the cup final coming up

Train and match tickets purchased 

Piss poor, gloryhunter

Some serious silverware in GM these days😊

Well done Leigh. 

Indeed. Score updates on 5 live, whilst listening to the footy.

 

Out walking and 2 lads ran by chucking a rugby ball. Had to check that I hadn’t wandered into Westhoughton

Seen Leigh and Bolton lift trophies at Wembley inside a few months of each other. Don’t want to wake up.

Fair play to you and the rest of the Leythers who have been through thin & thin over the years.

Just never imagined it even to be a possibility. 

Leigh won the replayed half hour against Huddersfield this afternoon with the score finishing 34 - 16, Leythers back on track

Cracking and much needed win for Salford yesterday, 

I would love Leigh to batter Wigan tonight but just can't see it
