Comment from a Leigh fan

5 years in the planning, 3 years in the building, £75m of investment in the much coveted Leigh Sports Village, the stadium officially opens against our Borough neighbours, the worlds most famous rugby league team, and the Council shut the road from the East Lancs, M6/M62/A49 to the stadium?

Not many options to park. There is penny flash but the stadium is quite out of the way from residential streets.

[consigliere]

You can't beat a good old fashioned bit of logic from the council can you?
What a joke.

Its close to residential. New estate (Barratts been up a couple fo years off St Helens RD). Then all the estates off St Helens Road.

Back of Stadium only 2 min walk.
