 Leigh Leopards 20-22 Salford Red Devils 𝗙𝗨𝗟𝗟 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘 in partnership with @homestogether . ⏱️ #BeTheRoar pic.twitter.com/dqX3qxnnSo — Leigh Leopards (@LeighLeopardsRL) April 8, 2023 There was a memorable match between two of Greater Manchester's Super League teams.

After both sides traded sets, a dropped ball on halfway allowed Leigh an opportunity to build their first meaningful attack. Lachlan Lam received the ball around 30 metres out

Unfortunately, these cash-only businesses have resulted in hundreds of thousands of pounds being funnelled into the criminal market, funding the drug trade, firearms, exploitation, and money laundering. Six months on, and police have shut down over 100 counterfeit shops. However the most asked question is: ‘Where does all this stuff go?’ A top priority for Operation Vulcan was to minimise waste and make sure the counterfeit items could be put to better use.
