laughable : Wed Jun 10, 2009 9:01 pm  

I look and read the post on here and I go to watch Leigh as I have for many years and these last few years (apart from LSV and all behind it who made it a reality) have been some of the worst in Leigh's history.

I read your posts and you seem to think that Watson is fantastic. He wouldn't have got into the reserves on most of the best Leigh players that we have had. This team is absolutely rubbish compared to what we have been used to watching over the years. Most of them are just reserve team quality. There really isn't a player on this team that I would want to keep.

Rowley as coach is just a laugh. We get a first class coach in Kelly. He must have been promised things. He isn't given the resources and then he is shoved upstairs to make way for "that's my boy". Rowley never got the respect of players in a team and was always causing problems so how on earth do you expect him to get the respect of players he is coaching.

We need a leader of the club with balls and vision to take this club forward over the next 2 years. AT and the Rowleys are not the men for this club. I just wish someone with cash and leadership was out there for this club to bring back the good times.

What you see is what you get. With this leadership I see a club lingering in the bottom of the Championship for the next 2 years or more. Sad times indeed.

Watson's had a fair bit of stick on here over the past couple of seasons as it happens (alot of it unwarranted).

Nobody is saying he's world class but he's a good player and has had very little help in moving the team around the pitch this season in particular.

I agree with you that our team leaves a lot to be desired in many areas but Watto is the best we've got at the moment and is one of few pulling his weight on a weekly basis.

Well said.

Hopefully next year, we will see wiser recruitment which will give us a 'good' squad for next year.

Unfortunately I'd imagine we'll need to replace Watson next season with someone else and therefore have wasted him while he was at the club by not giving him anyone else to play with.

Yes we had Moran last season but he was either injured or played at full back so Watson was doing all the donkey work again.

This season despite it being obvious that we needed a good experienced half back as a priority we signed nobody. It took us half the season to try and address it and the guy we've "signed" may not even make it here.

It's like I say, you are used to watching mediocre players. So you are happy with this current team and the cost of watching them and the set up that is going to lead us forward??

You obviously would be just as happy watching Leigh Miners. Some supporters want to see progress. I really can't envisage progress with this current setup at Leigh. They must obviously try hard, but they aren't good enough.

Myself as a supporter, I want to see exciting times again. I really can't see anything exciting at Leigh in the future other than watching the grass grow, with the current set up.

I liken it to a person who has been in the same safe job for the last 20 odd years. It's safe but it isn't going anywhere. It's boring boring boring. We are no farther forward than when Darren Shaw was in charge. In fact with Rowley, we are going to take a step or two backwards.
