I am of the opinion that banning Marc Green from the stadium goes beyond 'bringing the game into disrepute'.
Marc Green has not,to my knowledge,been fined by the RFL for earlier bad behavior.
This is more than a little serious and the RFL should act - NOW!

Quote ="Pumpetypump"Fair play to the Leigh Press team. They've been fortunate enough to follow up one stupid article and manage to get the MEN to run another that contains brainfart after brainfart from crazy uncle Derek. www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/ ... r-10074994 Favourite quotes include this on copping fines from the RFL "We can do this and to keep fining me is just like taking a bottle of water off a supermarket shelf. One goes and there is still a load left." Surely even a Leigh fan can't help but grimace at reading this article.'" The RFL need to increase the fines levelled against him then and take a multipack of water off the shelf instead of a bottle. He will soon run out of multipacks

I may be giving crazy uncle Derek too much credit but he perhaps knows that Marc Green's faith means he doesn't go to Saturday games. That allows him to spout off about banning someone who wouldn't attend anyway.

Can't someone give him a contact number for Victim Support.

Fake. Derek Beaumont would never talk like that to the press and would never brag about flouting the rules.
It's just not in his, the club's or the fans' nature to spit the dummy like that.

I reckon this was his son pretending to be him, again.

That article should be ringing alarm bells at the RFL and also Leigh. If there is any element of truth to the allegation they are looking to form a legal challenge to the salary cap, they should be removed from the league structure altogether. If they do ignore the cap rules, rather than fining them, kick them out.

Incredible really, makes Salford appear to be a professional organisation with a responsible and prudent owner.

If not true, the club should really go after the MEN.

Should a club mount legal action against the RFL, they immediately resign their membership of the rfl whilst the action is ongoing.

I would guess there are ways around that however (such as rather than launching a legal action as Leigh centurions, supporting a player launching that action)

People have yet to realise that we can and will do what we want. Learn to deal with it.

Maybe that's the longterm plan. Leigh can set up Leigh Superleague.

4 members, Leigh, Leigh reserves, Leigh academy & East Leigh. They play each other home & away 4 times a season. Sorted!

Weird that you didn't want to be promoted then isn't it.

It's that sort of attitude that causes people to devise your club. It's also very hypocritical.

You complain that other clubs (namely Wakefield) haven't played within the rules fairly, yet you want Leigh to break all the rules just because they can do what they want.



Well, if Leigh do that, they deserved to be punished. And they should deal with it.

It's quite entertaining to see how much fans now hate Leigh and how seriously they take things like this. It's only a game after all.

Get over it.

What an idiot Beaumont is. It's no wonder RL never expands beyond its heartlands with backward, small-time, small-town, batsh|t owners like him.

what, apart from earn promotion on the pitch?

yep that certainly worked didn't it

what about competing with SL clubs on a regular basis? nope didn't do that either.

what people did learn to deal with was the laughable cockiness from some Leigh fans who got a little bit too giddy about beating the powers of Hunslet, Workington and Batley.

there's a massive difference between hating a club and laughing our

off at it

I'm loving it...couple of years ago Leigh, never got a mention on the Virtual Terrace....now SOME folk on here are obsessed with us (well apart from when we win, and get nobody sent off)

=#FF0040edited for accuracy

You do realise the reason people are posting about Leigh don't you?
I've have nothing against Leigh at all but some of your fans have been plain embarrassing this year

"SOME folk on here are obsessed with us"

It's a delusion only associated with lesser clubs who are oh so desperate to be noticed. Their fans yell loudly and often how amazing they are and how everyone should take notice of their most amazing club and then claim everyone either hates them, is obsessed or is jealous of their most amazing club when people actually do. ©Salford 2013 - 2015

What a 'moronic' Sooper League 'snob' you are. You are the perfect example why us 'championship/scum' clubs despise folk like you. So glad you lost AGAIN tonight. You are not a Rugby league fan, you're a Leeds fan.

I don't 'now' hate Leigh. I've despised them for years.

A 'few' Leigh fans did indeed get cocky, the majority didn't.
Lets not tar and feather them all with the same brush eh?

Correct. Infection control guidance would recommend a disposable brush, one fan per brush...
