It's not so straight forward is it he left halfway through his contract leaving Smith and the team in the lurch, then Rowley's aspersions about some of Smiths players, putting their integrity in question that will have left a bitter taste.

I can understand Mickey's dilemma of take the offer now or loose it, with his future and family to consider I can now understand his decision so for all he's given I would give him his farewell.

Why would the offer not have been there at the end of the season? Good luck to him - not be applauding him though.

What is it with all this "I want an opportunity to say goodbye" guff, that every sportsman seems to come out with these days, when they've gone to another club.

You've made your decision, pal. Bye.

I'd applaud anyone who puts the security of his family first.
I will be clapping.

Same as others on here,dont give a stuff for him and his good byes,tbh i wish he was allowed to play in the cup match just so we dont get that thrown at us when we WIN.

I agree. He ought to play.

"dear John..."


Just off now mickey. We've moved on

No way will I be clapping, more like booing, stabbed the club TS and all the fans in the back. Yes he is looking after his family, but he`s bagged his testimonial money and left us in the lurch(at his time of leaving Clarke was injured and Dwyer on season loan at London, wasn`t bothered who would play 9 for us)half way through the season, all wire fans should treat him how he`s treated us and the club.

Good grief, stick ya dummies back in will ya.

He can hope for a send off - but he made an exit from the club leaving them with no fit hooker on the books. He's broken his promises, behaved in an underhand way and cant expect to be welcomed for it. This may be normal practice in Leigh....but its not honourable

Good grief ,you will be shouting bring back stoning next



move on guys , Mickey is now a Leigh player , and always was a Leyther, we may move to bring Chris Hill home next.

Nah, Hilly wouldn't fit in with the culture at Leigh....he doesn't like a fight, likes to play the game how it should be played

non of that nonsense I witnessed on Sunday night.

Anyway, thanks for the service Micky, if he does get a send off, I will be applauding.

No applause from me

He'll get an half-arrised clap if the club even bothers announcing that he's there.

Terrible really but expected, as Matthew rightly said, he left us in a sticky situation and can't expect to return to a red carpet rolled out and roses at his feet.

And the only way Hill will go back to Leigh is when he's way past it. We took a solid yet ordinary player and gave him the resources, coaching and experience to be the best prop in the country, the only place he'll go from us is the NRL.

Agree with earlier post,mickey gave us some great years,is looking after his young family, and if he says the offer would not be there next year I believe him! The REAL WIRE SUPPORTERS will give him the applause he deserves I am sure.

Don't spout that "real fans" cr@p.

Everyone here is entitled to an opinion and if they feel that he doesn't deserve an applause, they won't clap. Many others will.

I'm happy that Micky found a way to prolong his career, he's had a fantastic career and made the most of his skill set.

That said, no hard feelings from me, he was always going to play second fiddle to Clark when he settles in, a man of his wage, it isn't feasible for him to sit on the bench waiting for a young hooker to tire to get on. Clark should be able to push very close to 80 mins, and the back up hooker can't be a top earner. It's not as if it was Monas who was aging and struggling with injuries. As a business decision, it makes perfect sense. £50k in the bank, plus 5 months of wages saved, thanks very much!

The deal 2016-2018 was/is perfect for Mickey and Wire. This whole fiasco got shabby when he asked to leave earlier than his contract stated. Going through the right channels would have helped the situation. If TS had as stated previously helped secure Mickey a longer term at the last negotiations no wonder the $h1t hit the fan. For his play he gets a round of applause from me (as long as I am not on me own) for the way this has been handled he can bugger off

...next...decade!

Leigh humour



Don't you fellas want to talk about your own team with your own fans?

Oops! sorry, I forgot you don't have sense of humor in Warrington.

Can we please stop with this 'real supporter' bullsh#t it is getting seriously boring.

I'll flick him V's whilst booing.
