Good old Parky!

The 26 does go from Piccadilly to Leigh.



And yes Parky is still around doubt he’ll be at your game tho’



One of his best was in the middle of a game at Huddersfield he collapsed holding his leg, after 5 mins of treatment from the physio, they sent for the stretcher, they carefully lifted him onto the stretcher and just as they were about to pick it up, he jumped up and ran off doing cartwheels etc. Even all the players and the ref were laughing, not to sure the Doctor was.

If we're in the seating area do we have to sit down? I hate sitting at rugby games and the atmosphere is a lot poorer when fans are seated

Get in Northstand

There is another way



Train to Birchwood then Network Warrington 28 or 28a bus from the train station into Leigh

For the fans that come to Leigh by public transport or are having a few drinks around the town and don't fancy walking to the stadium, although it's not that far of a walk, there's a 597 bus, run by Maytree Travel, to the sports village. The bus stop is the one on the main road outside the bus station, opposite the Leigh Arms and next to the Goose. The times of the 597 bus after 4pm and leading up to kick-off are 4:16pm, 4:51pm, 5:21pm and 5:51pm.

Thanks to the Leigh fans for the information in response to my request much appreciated.



Unfortunately, I will have my 12 year old son in tow so sampling the ales at any of the locals is going to be a none starter

North Stand is all terracing.

West (main) Stand seating and you will have to sit.

South stand is seating, you will be asked to sit, but like the Leigh fans did on Sunday against Swinton its not been unknown for fans to be allowed to stand at the back.

East stand is a protected environment!

Kids will be fine in some of the pubs like the Centurion just over the canal bridge, and in Leigh East club house.

Hi Glow



Any ideas on where we could watch the Catalan v Bradford game in Leigh before our game on Saturday ? My wife emailed LSV and they say they will not be showing the game.

The Centurion will probably have it on, as will Leigh East, they are rugby pubs/clubs.



Leigh East is on the sports village complex, don't know how you're getting there but if by road, you should arrive on site via A580 and the bypass you'll turn right at the roundabout and the stadium is then on your right, Leigh East is a few hundred yards up the road to your left immediately after the roundabout, but very limited parking up there, so if you take the second turning on your left, behind the new pub being built and the North stand, loads of parking and you can usually take a short cut through the car park, and round the pitches to get the club house. You can see it from the car park.



If by public transport The Centurion is just over the Canal Bridge, see my previous post for leaving the bus station etc.



Hope this helps

I think it needs re-stating WE ARE IN THE SOUTH STAND ignore what it says on the tickets.
