Wow. No wonder people are leaving Leigh with management like that.

Well said

"The club will not be commenting further on this" Followed by " the statement continues", followed by "the statement adds", followed by "the statement concludes".

Good lord - that statement is extremely crass.

It's a weird statement but at least they are keeping fans in the loop.

It's so obviously written by an angry, red faced man trying hard to talk about everyone in the third person. It reads like he was going for a kind of telegram style but he hasn't really pulled it off.

It's a bizarre and unprofessional statement. If I were a member of the Leigh board of directors I'd be embarrassed to have that statement attributed to me.

Or Vicky Pollard.

I can't see Leeds signing him. Wakefield, Cas or Hull kr maybe.

What I don't understand, with sporting contracts, is whether there is a differentiation between the players right to resign from their current employer (with a stated notice period) and the clubs hold on that player regarding their player registration.

So perhaps a player can just resign, but a club is unlikely to release their registration until they are either compensated to do so, or the original duration of the player's contract ends.

Don't the RFL have to approve any changes in registrations anyway?
Are Leigh players all full professional players or are some part time? Just thinking if Ryan's original contract was a part time based contract then it could be possible to have a notice period in there I suppose- if further changes have been "extensions" and the original contract not changed.
