A shame but inevitable as he was a employee of AT.
Did some good work at Leigh and I've always found him refreshingly honest in a sport that is losing that side of things.

Some huge positives at the end of his email which should help see the club progress.

With all the inevitable changes with whats happened off the field we should hopefully get a clearer indication of who will be running the club and who will be Chief Exec over the coming weeks.
What IS clear is that AR & AT both seem to feel the future is fairly bright judging by there seperate press releases.

i just hope the 'new owner/investors' invite AT and AR too all the games!

im not having pop at someone who obviously worked hard for the club but does anyone think Allan leaving may have got rid of the bad blood between us and super league due to the famous outburst by Allan a couple of years ago when we got left out of super league?

No there are only small minded people who think that it ever exsisted in the first place, if it did why did the LSV get three international games last year? why was the league launch here last season? and the cooperative launch?, why are the RFL coming over next week to have a look at how our Lottery is run successfully? why did we win the community club award last year?

Both barrels, Fred.

Ouch! good shot Fred, I deserved that

sorry wasn't aimed at anyone in particular mate just stating it as I see it

No I agree with you totally mate, just seen to remember a lot of 'well we'll never get in next time after what he said' sort of comments. Ive nwt against the bloke personally - seems to have done a good job in very hard circumstances if you ask me.

If only his critics knew the half of what he's done for this club ever since he came back as Chairman.

Is it beyond the realms of possibility that if and when the club is taken over/restructured that Allan Rowley is asked back to the club?

Good luck to him for the future. He's the kind of guy that might even come back again at some stage under a different regime.

Lets hope the club continues to move forward under a new regime when that arrives.

then ian millward walks,trust me he will you heard it first from me. a man that gets the latest gossip from friends in high places

I reckon Allan would probably jump at such an opportunity, knowing his passion for the Club. Of course, we would have to find a way of paying a CEO salary, which we haven't had to fork out while Arthur was paying it!

We might have =#FF0000heard it first from you, but I =#FF0000saw it first. He was 'power walking' with his better half, near the Golf Club in Kenyon, last Friday!

I would like to think that Leigh Centurions has not seen the last of Alan Rowley in a management role. This club needs characters like Alan as well as dosh.

Would be a surprise, hardly, Salford are to annouce their new coach shortly, now I wonder who itll be. Although I did hear from someone..... who should know if he was leaving that he turned them down.

My guess is 'Basil' will go to Hull at the end of the season or when our NRC progress is done, saying that Im not sure when Agars contract is up, he would be mad to turn any SL club down especially now.

I reckon Salford's new coach will be a current Aussie one.

I reckon your right Alan they have probably been trying to get him a Visa.

and if they cant, what will they do.............

They will they are SL

There was a rule that you couldn't bring an Aussie over to coach, unless he had been HEAD coach at an NRL club. That rule seemed to fade into obscurity when 'someone' brought over Michael Maguire!

And Nathan Brown.

I love it when people join, come on here, and with their first or second post forcast doom and gloom as they apparently have inside knowledge.

How many times has this happened now? Must be half a dozen of these muppets, easily.

What if Millward was also an employee of one of AT's companies???

I'm sure a big loss of income would have an effect on his future.

Not saying he is BUT you never know.
