So, to get back from the name calling etc, what would be the position if the two players in question were to get new clubs? (both the named players are rumoured, in the trade press, to be on the radar of a number of clubs, including SL) Would their deal at a new club be expected to be funded by a pay off from Leigh, or would they expect to be paid by both clubs, for the remaining duration of their Leigh contract?
Oh, and as an aside, did we really give a three year contract to a player who was 'crocked'?
We did just like we gave Acton the plonker a 3 year £100k a year deal.. It’s no wonder we are in this mess.
Leigh to win challenge cup before 2020 Leigh to reach Grand Final by 2022
Derek to get a queens honour (mbe) by 2025
Oh Leigh oh Leigh oh Leigh

He's no good - the lad is huge but couldn't bust through a wet paper bag. He was crap at Wigan, he was crap here, and christ knows why Saints then signed him. Predictably, he was crap there as well.

Can understand that sort of deal if you want to keep a top class player, with other clubs sniffing around, but I don't belive we had anyone of that calibre last year.
That does seem to be the situation in a ' nutshell ' , going to be some bumps in the road ahead , but again it's just a game , not life and death , you enter into the world of Pro sport ( as an employee ) knowing it isn't the safest of jobs , that both from the playing and admin sides
As for us fans , you just buy your ticket and watch the game
Steve, I really admire your apparently relaxed attitude to all this - especially after all the time and money that you and Lynda must have given, and are still giving, to the club.
As someone else who put a few years of my life into helping our club, I feel extremely frustrated and disappointed at what has happened and, for me, it has meant, and still means, an awful lot more than just buying my ticket and turning up.
Anyway, if you have any of that eternal optimism bottled, would you be willing to sell me any of it?!

I thought the deal from Leigh was they could leave on a free. No signing on fee as such.

He should of been on a pay to play deal, that way he'd only get rewarded for not being an absolutely moron. Missed how many of our toughest run of matches i.e. the Middle 8's
Seems to me no players means no rugby in 2019. ( are there really 20 decent players sitting around waiting for a call from Leigh??) An off season gives us a year to form a club, build a team find a ground and get a coach - none of this is easy!

Players we will find , how ' decent ' in relation to us being in the Championship will be the issue , I'd expect us to max out the loan rules and DR
Doubt it will be pretty , but plenty of clubs are/have had decades of similar seasons , we will overcome whatever next season brings , and build again
Going to be very difficult for Derek to escape massive criticism and be regarded as having damaged the club , which is a shame as I do believe he genuinely tried his best for the fans and the town , in truth this is what I was worried about when I heard he was getting involved again , rarely does any owner leave a sports club in a good light , Similarily coaches , the vast majority leave on bad terms
Pro sport eh ! , who'd be daft enough to put money into one ?
