Where’s the player announcements buddy? I thought you were in know? Or do we have to wait until the 4th November?

Harold has Sammut signed?

All very peculiar marketing.. Bradfurt already sold a 1000 ST and look at the mire they are in.

Come on Atomic, give Monty break,it’s not down to him to inform the fans which players the Club have signed,when the time is right the Club will let us know,the season has just ended , I’m in no rush for news.
Monty does inform us when he hears anything ,as does Harold R ,maybe there is a reason the Club hasn’t posted anything yet,I’m sure we will be notified as soon as poss.

Word is Bradford gave sold 1200 sts but unfortunately the money was paid to previous owners.
are the sts to be honoured by nigel,perez and his new owners

Told you
Who signed upto now when I know you will all know

Bradford have a history of selling season tickets then going tits up aka widnes, far better to not rely on the cash now as the hole appears later

Again regardless of what reason the lack of information is very poor given the support the fans showed last season, they deserve to be informed of what the current state of the club is.

There is a very small window in which to sell season tickets with the festive period around the corner. Why would Leigh beg to differ?

It’s October, not December - I would expect that there will quite shortly be some player announcements, along with ST details, payment plans etc



As Corporal Jones said - dont panic

I will buy a season ticket regardless but I do have preferences:

Buy younger players, maybe they'll stay with the club and then start of every season wont be like Fresher's Ball (it's a dance not a raffle btw).

Only one bald player please. Too confusing.

No beards the same length.

Only one player with same surname.

Buy players with proper christian names like Albert (good enough for Goldthorpe, Tatlock and Einstein my tailors) -names that sound like Katie Price's children just don't work on a rugby field - yes Jordan and Bodene its you again..and with Katie's love of DNA its not impossible.

Buy players with rugby faces. Matty Dawson Jones was a fine example but you've just let go probably the greatest ever in Joe Cator - a fellow with a face that looks like it was made from a bit of Walt Tabern's cauliflower ear.

Buy just one Number 9 - they could all play 80 minutes if they didn't lift their hands to the sky in mock indignation at every play the ball.

Double-barelled names are now ok. Its been pointed out to me that these are not affectations but a logical way of a fellow dealing with him finding out his Dad is not is real Dad. Expect a few more.

Oh and when the season does start can all loan players have a big L on their forehead and on their back so we don't in the early days think its one of our new signings whose just taken the ball at speed, sidestepped (look it up) the opposition and scored under the posts.

Onwards and Upwards! or at the very least Sidewards.

Well I would take our current position over Bradford’s, so I will stay patient and trust in Monty. I have always found his info to be more reliable than most.
If it was December 1st then I would be concerned, but for now I’m all good.

Big mistake in letting him go. Maybe the pot that the club had, has dissolved.

VL I respect your comment. But Monty is no wiser than any of us at present. It’s a closed shop. Why? I don’t know.

Brilliant!

At last, a set of reliable selection criteria!

You know I’ve been critical of our management, but Cator wanted to go home to a super league team.. No blame on our side at all.

I don’t disrespect Cators wishes in anyway shape or form. How the clubs shape and form is going is yet to be presented.

We’ve had an excellent season. Why not strike whilst the iron is hot? Are Leigh under special circumstances? Certainly not a marketing strategy surely!

Of course it’s a marketing strategy. We are going to create a buzz with multiple announcements when we launch the new kit, sponsors, season tickets and squad. All other clubs have made the majority of their announcements already and we are in pole position to have all the air time in the trade and local press. Good strategy in my opinion. Can only ramp up the excitement with the fans when the press releases start to happen.

Stop talking sense, or you won’t be made welcome on here

Personally, I'm more on favour of the constant drip-feed of information, (about all aspects of the club, not just recruitment) to maintain interest, and profile. But there you go, we all see things differently, and who knows which is the 'right' way?

P.S. Not criticising your views C&W - I fully respect them.

Your going to get a constant drip feed of information to coincide with ST details, shirt launch etc etc- what are you expecting them to tell you about the club in October

Apparently we have signed Aussie prop or second rower Nick Grohe.

Who He ?

Any investment in youth or a pathway on the cards? Or are we all in again?

I saw him at the lights tonight. He said you’re Atomic, I said too right.

WTF are 'special circumstances'. I assume you mean 'special measures'. The answer to which is no. I also predict that at least one of the player signing 'rules' stated earlier will be broken.

Most of the other clubs seem to be passing on information, about the things you mention, plus player retentions, departures, and signings. I'm just saying that a lot of clubs seem to prefer the drip feed from Autumn onwards. Which way is the 'right' one - who knows?
