| Let's not forget that for the bleating and moaning that Eddie Hemmings and Paul Rowley did, Wakefield have been playing a 17 that includes 13 players who've been at Trinity all season.
No one seems to want to mention Hock, Higham etc signing for Leigh

A great player who has just made a complete and utter fool of himself. He's worse than Schofield.
I think there are a few flaws to be ironed out in the new structure but to suggest it's designed to stop Leigh or any other club achieving promotion is ludicrous. Everyone knew the rules at the start, some have exploited them better than others.

| Murphy seems to have virtually thrown the towel in, I hope the rest of the club doesn't follow suit.

| As for Celtic, they got into the Play-Off final and a promotion place by illegally signing and paying a dozen Australians. So any "achievements" they made are invalid.

| What a load of embarrassing tosh; he's taken the Eddie/Rowley cry-fest from Boots N All and added layers of nonsense - doesn't really do Leigh any favours either, in that it creates the impression that they're already out for the count.
Further proof, if any were needed, that great players don't always make great pundits.

Fair play to the Leigh Press team. They've been fortunate enough to follow up one stupid article and manage to get the MEN to run another that contains brainfart after brainfart from crazy uncle Derek.
www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/ ... r-10074994
Favourite quotes include this on copping fines from the RFL "We can do this and to keep fining me is just like taking a bottle of water off a supermarket shelf. One goes and there is still a load left."
Surely even a Leigh fan can't help but grimace at reading this article.

Love it.
It seems the board had the same attitude as some of their more noisy supporters. Having told all and sundry how they would win it on the field and how good it was that they were now able to win promotion on the field and prove themselves amongst the elite they have found its easier said than done and there's a fair few dummies leaving mouths.
Couldn't not make themselves look more like a little boy wearing his daddies shoes and thinking it makes him the man if they tried.

| Typical Lancashire chavs.
It's f'in dynamite. Just when you think Derk is going to keep quiet he unleashes this article.
I sincerely hope that Leigh ignore the salary cap next year because by making it public that they will you can bet your bottom dollar that RFL (who according to the MEN "have close links to Bradford"icon_wink.gif will be paying special attention.

| I am of the opinion that banning Marc Green from the stadium goes beyond 'bringing the game into disrepute'.
Marc Green has not,to my knowledge,been fined by the RFL for earlier bad behavior.
This is more than a little serious and the RFL should act - NOW!

The RFL need to increase the fines levelled against him then and take a multipack of water off the shelf instead of a bottle. He will soon run out of multipacks

I may be giving crazy uncle Derek too much credit but he perhaps knows that Marc Green's faith means he doesn't go to Saturday games. That allows him to spout off about banning someone who wouldn't attend anyway.

| Fake. Derek Beaumont would never talk like that to the press and would never brag about flouting the rules.
It's just not in his, the club's or the fans' nature to spit the dummy like that.
I reckon this was his son pretending to be him, again.

| That article should be ringing alarm bells at the RFL and also Leigh. If there is any element of truth to the allegation they are looking to form a legal challenge to the salary cap, they should be removed from the league structure altogether. If they do ignore the cap rules, rather than fining them, kick them out.
Incredible really, makes Salford appear to be a professional organisation with a responsible and prudent owner.
If not true, the club should really go after the MEN.

Should a club mount legal action against the RFL, they immediately resign their membership of the rfl whilst the action is ongoing.
I would guess there are ways around that however (such as rather than launching a legal action as Leigh centurions, supporting a player launching that action)

Maybe that's the longterm plan. Leigh can set up Leigh Superleague.
4 members, Leigh, Leigh reserves, Leigh academy & East Leigh. They play each other home & away 4 times a season. Sorted!

It's that sort of attitude that causes people to devise your club. It's also very hypocritical.
You complain that other clubs (namely Wakefield) haven't played within the rules fairly, yet you want Leigh to break all the rules just because they can do what they want.
Well, if Leigh do that, they deserved to be punished. And they should deal with it.

what, apart from earn promotion on the pitch?
yep that certainly worked didn't it
what about competing with SL clubs on a regular basis? nope didn't do that either.
what people did learn to deal with was the laughable cockiness from some Leigh fans who got a little bit too giddy about beating the powers of Hunslet, Workington and Batley.
