The day Noble walked out and went to Wigan that was the day it all started to go down hill. It's a bloody big hill too just hope we are near the bottom

Seriously doubt we could exist at championship level purely from a financial point of view so daft question really.

Must be having a laugh about the Championhip but on a serious note, Yes we had the Macca saga and host of average players but now times are changing. Don't forget Micks had one season, which at the start of it there were few players available and we couldn't do much until Orford was sorted. 2012 we can recruit properly and hopefully have more players, I already think Gale and Summit are a big improvement and Lulia sounds like a great signing. 2011 is Potters rebuilding season, 2012 is ours

IMO the rot started in 2007 when Lesley was allowed to walk away it showed the start of the lack of ambition on the clubs part.

Big Les was offered more money to play a less physically taxing sport. He had severe knee problems and would have been earning way too much at the Bulls during a time of financial turmoil.

What were both parties supposed to do? It was the correct decision at the time and still is now.

Close the thread. This is just ridiculous.
