| Quote ="j.c"Fascinating post,thanks for that.
I'll just add theres nothing thats been said that suggest theres a problem a Leigh'"
Quite correct.Nothing has been said.Unusual for the people at the Leigh club.
When a skipper abandons a ship it does signify a problem.
Hence the analogy.
I am surprised at the shock and lack of information amongst all the hordes of Centurions followers concerning many matters at the club.
Lost players,resignations,future appointments.
Could be like the Marie Celeste in no time.

The skipper himself has said its for personal reasons,You think thats a lie,thats fine,a couple of facts that you know of wouldnt go amiss?
There are lots of @LSV cats that roam these forums,sometimes they serve a purpose,sometimes its better to shoo them away.
No idea about your third point.
Cant see the club disappearing again as it it did in 2012/13,you underestimate Derek Beaumont & the other directors

I think you'll find that HMS is a prefix, not a suffix. ![Wink icon_wink.gif](//www.rlfans.com/images/smilies//icon_wink.gif)

He said that the reason he resigned was personal, not personal reasons. There is a big difference between the two phrases. Personal reasons suggests that it was something in his home life, a reason which is personal suggests that it will remain a secret

| come on everyone please leave Leigh alone - They do not want to be distracted from going unbeaten the entire season, winning the challenge cup, then strolling through the Super 8's into Super League, before their 2017 season of eclipsing Leeds Rhinos 2015 treble by also adding WCC to their trophy cabinet.

| Come on folks, Leigh will be challenging for SL titles within 3 years.
Remember, we have our very special owner, hated by most but loved by HIMSELF.
And for gods sake, don't have an opinion that is not the same as his - he will simply not like you.
His next coach will be someone who does as he's told - simples!

Then again some of the fans may not be allowed in if they did.

Ironic considering you are one of the first posters to jump on any bad news coming out of Salfors.

First of all it is Salford
Secondly unless he has assaulted someone connected to the club how is it anything but a personal issue. I suppose it could be connected to the club if he loses his employment as a result of the court case.
So no irony at all

So when Tim Smith got drunk and parked his car in someone's front garden it wasn't anything to do with Wakefield?
Or when Ryan Bailey and Chev Walker got into a fight outside the Majestic Nightclub in Leeds it was none of the Rhinos business?
But back to Barlow, given that he's one of their better players, I was just posing a question as to how big an impact on Leigh's season it would have if he's absent for some or all of 2016

[size=200IF[/size he is found guilty then it will be a Leigh issue (not a major one just the club will have to consider if it needs to get involved to take any action against him ourselves) until then it's nothing. Barlow is an excellent player, his offloads are superb I've never seen anyone offload like him. However he is currently out with a long term back injury so we're not expecting him to play for a while which will mitigate any impact losing him will have.

Definitely ridiculous that the Championship clubs are allowed to spend exactly the same as the SL clubs. After all its not as if they play one another in a mini league for a quarter of their season to determine promotion/relegation is it now..... ![BEAT icon_beat.gif](//www.rlfans.com/images/smilies//icon_beat.gif)

Does sustainability not come into it? Will Leigh go bankrupt again at the end of the season if they don't succeed in the eights again?

Me either. looking at both teams expected starting line ups for this weekend and Bulls have an awful lot of SL experienced players in there.
