come on Widnes do us a favour

To be fair, its the least he can do !!

His disciplinary record speaks for itself !

Appearance money only?

Why would anyone trust Beaumont?

Derek will sell it to the players that's what he very good at

But seemingly not paying them

Bizarrely, Total RL have re-published the story about Evans & Larroyer, saying we are still in 'special measures' as no settlement has been reached. Yet the article is, word for word, the same one that appeared after the DB interview! Strange!

I know Alan, amazing piece of journalism. Evans & Larroyer have not found new clubs, or been paid what they are owed, or what DB has offered.
So obviously 'nothing has changed'.....

Darts & Doms League will be terrified !

I would love to be a fly on that wall ......

* I know you were on 60, 80, 100K a year but how does 12 sound ?

It could all end up being a blessing in disguise and the club can now build proper foundations so when it's ready to move on to the next level it can be long term and not 1 season wonders

' Proper foundations ' being what gunners ?

Proper foundations, is in the hands of the RFL. Parachute payments should be hit on the head and the money invested in reserves and youth. Protecting clubs short term as with Leigh isn't an answer.

The RFL has the power to create those pathways, but chooses to ignore them. The game requires restructuring from the bottom up,not top down, and all need to be on the same page.

Nothing to do with the RFL

Building bridges with the community clubs,building up the player strength of the youth so they can make the step up to first team,making the club more substainable as a business,making the club more fan friendly,selling the club a lot more than it does be that on social media or advertising in the town,I know this doesn't happen overnight and I know at the end of the day fans want to watch a winning team but we had this and then threw it all away signing players that wasn't up to the challenge the league table doesn't lie

Some of the players mentioned won’t sign as can’t afford them

Heard the same and he has done right by the club in talks, this hopefully is his making. The boy becomes a man in one close season

Good for him.

However, there's no way I can see him changing his ways. His last two suspensions last season, were the result of late, dangerous, carbon copy challenges. Suspended for seven matches for an off-the-ball incident, he then returns, to do it again, second match back! Much as I wish he would change, those incidents convinced me there is a flaw there.

He's a liability, will already miss 1st 4 games of the season - no doubt many more to come, however beggars can't be choosers

I'll agree with the ' fan friendly ' bit , much more has been needed for decades , however it isn't via better links with the amateur clubs , many of the coaches at them have their own agenda's and idea's on who they want to have ' links ' with

The club should work more with the schools to get more kids interested in RL , be that playing or watching

I thought Leigh where looking going part time? As JA found a job?

[flash=[/flash

Fair enough..
