Leigh Rlfc Promotion To Super League

EDM number 959 in 1999-00, proposed by Lawrence Cunliffe on 11/07/2000.

That this House supports the Leigh Centurions Rugby League Football Club in their application for a place in the Super League next year; notes with disappointment that this application was initially turned down at the Rugby Football League Council meeting; and calls on the Rugby Football League to re-examine Leigh's application in light of their excellent performances throughout the 1999-2000 season and the strength of support for the club with average crowds above some of their Super League counterparts.

This motion has been signed by a total of 44 MPs.
