So the next time we have a contract with a player we ask him....
"are you happy that we issue a press release announcing your arrival at the club?"

Simple really.

Most contracts these days include a clause that any public announcement regarding the contract should be approved by both parties.
This would have saved all the embarrasment.

Have you seen the contract to show this was excluded?

He did not say he would love to come to Leigh, his words were “It would be exciting to get a chance to play again at a top level,� he said.

So you have his name on a contract, but your coach is saying you might have been led up the 'garden path'

embarrassing

I guess if anyone knows about the embarrassment of signing a player and him not playing a single game, then its a Fax fan!

It really is a shame that when we get some good news and some publicity then it always seems to backfire.Its almost as if we are cursed!!!

My opinion from our recent results at leigh and the general lull is that we need to replace old for new at the club and i aint talking about the coach.It is the same in any business, when you reach a plateau sometimes it works to make a change as new ideas and enthusiasm can make the difference.this is my opinion only of course.

Cant afford it?

Drop down to champ 1 and watch the crowds drop thus bankrupt!!

False economy to not predict the future and make the changes now IMO.

so just who are you saying we should get rid of or replace?
