I'll reserve judgement at the mo and will see how thing progress over the remainder of the season.

get tony benson back !!!!!

do not know if this is going to work or what consequences it will ave on my beloved club,
BUT 1 thing i know i will be at batley monday infact i will be wherever the lads are playin giving them 100% support as usual so with that in mind i urge all us leythers to get behind the new partnership of neil and paul and start a new era ( i know we ave been avin these for quite a while now

)
it might or could be better but honestly can it be any worse????

slag em off all you want but honestly are you gonna stay at home when the mighty leigh are playing.NO.

STOP PIS%ING MOANING LET THEM GET ON WITH WHAT THEY DO BEST AND US WELL LETS GET ON WITH WHAT WE DO S U P P O R T I N G.

I stand to be proven wrong by these changes. I 've said its the players that are no good, not the coach(Kelly) ! Prove me wrong Paul by turning these players into ball playing Wizards and, fast unstopable attacking Rugby League! The punishment for failure is banishment, something, many people on here having been advocating for a long time !

I (among many) have not been happy re Paul rowleys attitude this season.BUT he has to step up to the plate now.I will give my full support(for what its worth)as long as both he and the team show commitment and passion.Come on you leigh

I still don't get where people are coming from with this bad attitude from Paul can you give me an example?

would this be paul noone

no-one knows!

I have already asked this question the other day and got 2 replies still none the wiser really .

PR is now in the job, its time to walk the walk.
Whatever happens Leigh RL will be the winner for either exposing PR as a disruptive negative influence as has been stated, or giving an opportunity to a genius in waiting.
Prove em wrong Paul and seize the opportunity, your head is now well and truly above the parapit.

"I am very comfortable with Paul's appointment, and am looking forward to us being a successful coaching team."

Looking at this comment it doesn't sound as if Kelly is completely happy with it either! Did he want to go upstairs or was he made to?

How do you work that out??? If he would of said to "I am very uncomfortable with Pauls appointment" would he actually be well happy with it? Just back the team and don't physcoanalyse everything!

I'm a Widnes fan I hope you get stuffed weekly!



But what does 'comfortable' imply to you? To me it says, yea is ok don't mind rather than yup delighted!

I must admit, I had a similar interpretation when reading it. Would be interesting to know who's idea it was (or maybe it wouldn't!)

Come on Matt your turning into a numpty you'll be changing your user name next or getting another



looking for things that are not there surely if Kelly isn't happy he will resign, why look for things that are not there, sure I don't think Kelly and Rowley see eye to eye on some things but as director of rugby Kelly is still in charge, he is taking the managers role as in football with overall control of coaching at the club with Rowley as 1st team coach, other teams do it quite successfully.

Seems to be some negativity on this thread, give the man a chance. He has the passion to take the club forward, lets hope this is reflected on the field and our standard of rugby improves. Lets all get behind Rowls instead of constantly slagging him off.

Thats unusual on here

nothing left to say on this subject only time will tell but if there was to be change i would have gone for mckormack

Well I live in the posh part of Salford so unless I post a rumour I usually make clear it is made up.

I am actually a fan of NK but I don,t have a problem with Paul Rowley.

What I still would like explaining to me in plain English is this.................if NK was head coach and isn,t now but is still in charge of coaching ? who decides on team selection and tactics and in case I am not clear who has the final say ?

The coach picks the team, the manager/director dictates policy and negotiates signings the coach wants, he also deals with the paper work, of which there is a surprising amount, if a club is wanting to run a successful 1st reserve, 18's and a scholarship now or in the future then the manager overees the whole, quite simple like a leadership structure in any organisation.

What he said!

Well thankyou for that and I hope I am not being difficult but can NK overule PR on team selection or tactics ?


A yes or no would satisfy me.

Technically speaking PR has total control of team selection and tactics.

With the amount of sheep attending LSV every other week we will have to higher a Sheppard.
