I have to agree coach wise we need an experienced coach even if it is an aussie.

Rowley is inexperienced & with have Kelly I'm not sure what his job title is, but he legged it to union was out of the game for quite some time & strolls in thinking he could make a difference well it hasn't & it won't happen. Yet again we have people who don't seem to be able to get the best out of the players we have.

I can only see it going further down hill & quicker than we anticipated

We have players with NO SKILL, NO PACE, NO SIZE and NO BRAINS.
They are coached to play one man rugby, not support players, lie flat, over run the ball, no dummy runners and think for a few seconds before moving the ball away from the ptbt.

Didnt we announce we have spent as much on these as last years lot which included Doran, Moran, TKL, Wainwright, McAvoy - all of which would play for peanuts of course.

Today I felt so sorry for our 4 props who won that arm wrestle.

Watson passes to the dummy runner

The play the ball is much to slow , the opposition knows who its going to before our players do, other teams manage quick plays whereas we look so cumbersome.

McConnell isnt a 9 at this level, Hatton could be and Watson is.

You spoilt this with mentioning Wainwight imo not to mention signing other players past their sell buy date.

Re Mcavoy i posted when he was signed that he was too slow and got slated for it.

It,s no good however talking about what we should have done what the club need to do now is somehow ensure we don,t finish in the bottom two.


Without spending I think we are doomed.

Should I make another post this evening I might post the scary story of the old empty barn.

can we play you again.

Go & play on the M62

Penny would only drop the ball anyway!

but the times he didn't drop it you'd have a job to catch him

I'm more worried about Pickersgill than Penny....

Having said that I'm a whole lot more worried about Leigh after that performance today....

he has been going well for us.

Sounds like you need some Cullen Culling and some tasty loanees with the money you save we've off loaded a hole host to get our 4

Just how many "LOAN_EES" does your team need to make a good squad??

I thought your lot had a "RESERVE TEAM-Under 21- and Acadamy teams" Looks like there not good enough for the second tier of Rugby then dose it.

If I was working at any company, I would have a problem working for a manager whose dad was the CEO. Its an unhealthy working practice unless you are working for a familly business which Leigh Centurions isn't. Or is it? I would have every one of those players training every night next week. Not totaly physical training but going through every mistake made and if someone doesn't want to do it, sack him. Let him take you to court. This club is a company that needs to make a profit and if you cant do your job in any company you should be sacked. That goes from the top to the bottom.

We had been rather light on experiance though, and now its working we now have some balance to the team

Frank the point was we had players who would have been on a few bob last year, this year we have allegegedly spent the same

to go back to a previous thread.

mr chairman states that most of the money is going on rent and fascilitys, not much left for recruitment??????

but who is going to invest in leigh rugby league now that is the BIG QUESTION?????????????

The White Knight, of course



With the lack of a gym and training taking place at what would seem to be several different venues, it does beg the question as to where the money is going.

We was told that this year squad has been the most expensive one except th SL one !!!

Some players stealing one hell of a living if that's the case. Out of interest, who told you that?

If that's true then AT needs his head seeing to.

How can it be true when we signed only one 'quality



' player and that was funded by LISA.

There's no way on earth that this year's squad is costing more than 2006. Surely?!

Edited for accuracy

Excellent
