Quote: JEAN CAPDOUZE "I actually sat in one of the Belle Vue stands a few years ago, near to poor old Neil Fox. I could touch the splinters.'"


You patronising frog! What is "[ipoor old Neil Fox.....?"[/i supposed to mean? I watched Neil play during the fifties and sixties and people like you aren't fit to lick his boots. His hand-offs, shoulder charges and goal kicking were a joy to watch. Neil is a true rugby league legend and, having actively watched rugby league for over 50 years, he's still one of my two all-time sporting heroes. Espece d'idiot!

Quote: Father Ted "No doubt the Wakey Chairmen checked KH's record at Gateshead and HullFC. Wasn't she also involved with Bramley at some point?
Lenegan has won trophies, more than any other owner or club this decade. As for influence with his peers, you have to be joking! All the major businesmen/owners are on Lenagan's side. When the two clubs get relegated Lenagan and his mates will have a majority in SL. All the relegation candidates are in the RFL camp!
As for sponsors, Wigan have more club sponsors now than at anytime.
The club is winning trophies and making a profit. To compare Wakefield's recent record with Wigan's and Hetherington with Lenagan is laughable!
If Carter thinks Lenagan doesn't know how to run a Rugby club or how to deal with that kind of busniness model, the guy really needs a good talking to.
As for contacts, which quality player has she signed to strengthen the squad then?
Some loanees from Leeds, yeah Gary is a really good contact.'"


That's an impressive rant; unfortunately, none of the things you're railing against actually happened.

Let all the doubters keep doubting and those who believe keep believing. We’re only interested in those in the bubble. Anyone who wants to come in the bubble, you can come in. But you’ve got to keep believing.:86.jpg



Based on Hetherington's observations on Radio Leeds this evening it is clear that he has very little time for Lenegan's "narrow views" based on "self interest" and accepts that they are "north and south poles" apart.

Hetherington has very little to prove to a young pup like Lenegan whose achievements in club-building are comparatively trivial. But to get back to the point - Hetherington is not the club owner at Leeds. Paul Caddick isn't an RL insider - he brought Hetherington in to do that for him. That all the "successful businessmen" are supposedly lined up with Lenegan is a laughable idea - Caddick and McManus and O'Connor are, of course, all significantly more wealthy than Wigan's owner. They just aren't as vocal in pressing their club's self-interest over the greater good of the game.

Are people still taking the p*ss out of our crappy old ground sleepy.gif

Atleast some of the bulls fans on this thread are seemingly finding some comfort away from their own ground/financial issues, in doing so. Fill your boots lads icon_thumb.gif

Scott Anderson from Brisbane Broncos for one, according to MC on the radio last night that was through her contacts. 2 NRL grand finals under his belt, looks good on paper. Time will tell
