Ah VM, but he's familiar with the NRL! This seasons' shambles is a cunning plan, to get the RFL to grant Leigh 'development' status, in 2010, so that we too can have ten top grade NRL players, three NZ internationals, four Fijians, 6 Papua New Guineans........(and one 'token' Welshman)

We could always play Kolpaks like certain other co-op clubs do.............

I hope you are feeling better but I honestly can,t see how any director past or present can stay put just in the hope they,d get their money back.

You can,t invest in any Championship club and expect a return on your money. Seems to me if you put in a few bob it,s because you care but what do I know ?

No director can serioursly expect their money back. 2009 is now a completely different set of circumstances than 2003 especially with P&R now abolished. Quite simply 1 share today is not worth a fraction of the £7.5k paid back then.

and we all thought Darren Abram was a bad coach : Tue Jun 30, 2009 11:00 am  

Darren Abram lets see now wasn't he the coach who finally took us to Super League and then paid the price because all the good players had been signed up to other clubs.the poor guy never stood a chance.I for one will always be grateful to him for giving us our Season in the sun.

I too am grateful but if he would of listened to others advice and comunicated better perhaps he and we together could maybe of still been in SL and done a HKR???? We'll never know.

Lets move on.

Do you mean we should have accepted that we were coming back down and planned accordingly

Recruiting players to get experience in SL but be in a strong position to bounce back again in 2006 with Mr Abram as the coach ?
