When a coach loses his dressing room, there is inevitably only ever one outcome.

Totally agree there Harold.

Quite possibly an accurate assessment Harold , for me I believe coaches are changed too often , I cite Sean Daish at Burnley , they stood by him when they were relegated and were rewarded with a second promotion and a 7 th finish

You might well be correct , although haven't heard any mention of it being repeated this year , it does seem plausible that the Catalans would have lost considerable income had they dropped to the Championship

I am not sure about that.
I seem to recall from Derek, it was voted for at the beginning of the season by SL clubs. Derek voted in favour for it, never believing for one moment we would benefit from it.

I agree as well ,I think we have all heard stories and rumours about Paul departure,and what happened,it would be great if the truth came out ,one day but I can't see it,I think it was a case of whether one calls or raises the antenna, and got into a personal vendetta.
Myself I've always liked Paul,I'd even have him back , but I can't see it happening, I'd love to see Ryan B return, and maybe Adam Higson,could KP be the Coach to lead us into a new era ?I really hope so, I once told Darren Abram when he was long gone and forgotten, I would still be a Leigh fan, the same goes for Derek, if he goes or stays, I will stay.Charlie knows.

I'll reserve judgement on that, until his coaching career is proven at the level he shys away from.

Atomic, I don't know what the 17 were for the Barrow game, but mine would have been.
1.Craig Hall.
2.Rhys Evans.
3.Ben Crooks.
4.Peter Matutia.
5.Matty Dawson.
6.Ben Reynods.
7.Drew Hutchinson.
8.Patrick Vai Vai.
9.Liam Hood.
10.Bodene Thompson.
11.Jordan Thompson.
12.Kevin Larroyer.
13.Harrison Hanson.
14.Dan Mortimer.
15.Jack Bagborough.
16.Nathan Mason.
17.Jordan Dezaria.
That's presuming everyone was fit, the ground was very heavy that afternoon, but how could we lose a 10 point lead?

Derek, it's just my opinion, but I think most fans would stay whoever was in charge, they might not be happy, but they would still follow Leigh.
As I've said if Derek B stays I'd be happy , if he leaves I'd be happy,but we need to stop this Will he, Won't he and get on with the good of Leigh Centurions, we have a great fan base, a great ground,and need to be positive .Let's move forward.

Nope just like hes not actually put as much money in as he says..
The big whole writing a cheque to pay for wages which people hang off as this saving grace.. The wages got paid from ticket sales at the end of the season.. He didn’t pay naff all.
When you have a Chairman coming into the dressing room at half time effing and jeffing.. berating players as he pays their wages etc. It just does not work.
Heart was always in the right place, but head wasnt the right fit at all.
