We had signed them, you knew that.
But some went on backpacking holidays, acting careers, had career ending injuries and retired.
Guess where they ended up.
As for the coach, his grubby dirty tactics are prevalent in your teams play, glad he went.....with the physio.

Paul Rowley couldn’t get Leigh into SL never mind keep them there in fact he failed spectacularly when it came to the crunch and if you do make SL I guarantee Paul Rowley won’t be your coach

Paul Rowley's best performances were when he was wearing a number 9 shirt for Fax. He's actually a very decent bloke, and sponsored a Fax game a couple of months ago. Regarding his credentials as a top level coach, that's more in question, albeit with Brian Noble in the background it's probably not that bad a combination.
TW's biggest problem may well be their own high turnover (replacing lesser players with higher calibre ones). The very best set of individual players will win nothing unless they're gelled as a team. Coaches like John Kear and Daryl Powell can motivate a team to perform above their abilities, and (I'm biased) a part-time team like Fax who'll bust a gut for each other can also do well. Assembling a team of stars means nothing if they won't work for each other.

Once again Sparky your analysis is second to none...but I do feel Rowley will be given a good chance and a good go at it first...if he is successful he will stay, if not he will go....but make no doubt, he will not be replaced right away as some seem to think, he will be given a good chance from Noble and Argyle, the fans over here will accept nothing less...he is like a new man over here on a second coming.
Paul Rowley is highly thought of over here in Toronto.

The Leigh people only see what they want to see Jean, and then ignore the obvious truth...they are delusional along with their unstable owner and his crazy little brother...what a disgrace.
