I was told Murph had decided to leave Leigh before the town hall celebrations and his chat with Jack Harding. No prizes for guessing the ex Leigh player who told me.

I thought he was a 'club ambassador' for them the same way he is for us? And, I understand it to be an honoury role at both clubs - he doesn't get paid for it.....just gets to pick and chose games to watch for free!!

Probably the greatest player we ever had (I'm told - I'm not that old), certainly the most successful coach. We've won 4 major honours in 135 years, half of them with AJM at the helm (not including the 2 Lancashire cups, or the best points-scoring team in history that won the second division with the three-quarter line all ending up in the top 10 tryscorers in the whole RL)

Exactly how I see it too.

To be fair to him, he did kinda hint at the fact that this was his attitude during the GMR interview.

Unfortunately (and I like the guy a lot) he always will look out for number 1, but then again he isn't a supporter and he has had to look after No1 it's just the way he does it sometimes that annoys people (me included).

No axe to grid with him,he gave us our greatest moments and will always be grateful for that

Can you blame him for looking after no1? if you don't no other bugger will
