Could we not give Purtill a trial period with assistance from Mickey Higham to try to instil some passion into a team without any Leigh born players?

Well, he has a trial period with Paul Anderson as assistant, until a permament appointment is made.

Not quite sure what Anderson brings to the table.. Needs a complete clear out, start fresh. (Includes KC)

Im sure the guy is heartbroken and i would like to thank him for his efforts and wish him well for the future......

but, in a results driven arena these things happen on a regular basis, and im sure he signed his contract with his eyes wide open ( like all the players we released after the MPG)

Hopefully, a bit of a kick up the @rse for the squad and what usually results after a sacking/resignation the boys will come out with a different attitude, a different game plan and blow riddy and his new mates back up the motorway with a drubbing....

Well Derek said trust his judgement and today Neil resigned from the club so he has been quick after Sundays dreadful 'showing'.
It was inevitable but lets not forget what Neil did achieve.

The next coach needs to get back the Leigh brand of RL and seriously lay into a massively underperforming set of individuals to make them a team that fights for each other and for the fans, time for the Players to prove they have it in them and give 100% effort week in week out.

Agreed. And for us to give them a second chance, get right behind them, and help them to prove it.

Alan is on a 'mission' !! (Blimey fella, it's quite obvious you're a retired gentleman) Have you not got any other hobbies ?

Whilst it was on the cards and inevitable that there would be a parting of the ways, the players are hardly blameless in the recurring second half surrenders.
Surely, in a group of well paid players, someone should have grasped the nettle and suggested that “we are individually and collectively poop, let’s kick some ass and get back in this game”
A captain with a bit of fire in his belly would be better than a very nice man.
