| It's hard to criticise the Leigh owner, without appearing to revel in the woes of Leigh fans - which I most certainly don't...
BUT
This is the guy who oversaw a massive project to buy his way into SL, which failed, and now he's jumping ship and leaving the club in a parlous position; and with Salford in a similar state, it does call into question the viability of allowing mega-wealthy individuals to use RL clubs as their latest hobby. There's been a catalogue of failures in recent years, including the Pro-Biz conman at Cas, Glover (who was only pretend wealthy) at Wakey, various people at Bradford, and now these two pillocks at Salford and Leigh.
I'm not sure what the answer is - but surely the governing body has a role in controlling the worst excesses of these people?

London hosting SL clubs at the West London wedding venue would be fantastic.... Especially on sky. Alas, I suspect that if they were promoted that they would have to move again......

They do a cracking burger down there though, far better than the Brentford burger.

The only ground in the UK with a pub on each corner is Griffin Park..... The Griffin pub is now a gastro bar..... I emigrated at the right time.
