The reasons for Paul Rowley resigning his position are personal and private.

I wish him the best of luck for the future. A big loss to Leigh. A very young and talented coach indeed.

Rugby League: Action hero Rowley
Halifax 34 London Broncos 14
Dave Hadfield Saturday 27 June 1998
THE Halifax and England hooker, Paul Rowley, rescued a girl from drowning on his way to last night's match, so it was perhaps to be expected that he would prove too slippery for London. Rowley leaped into a swollen river near his Bolton home to save the 12-year-old and then performed lesser heroics as his side put last week's defeat at Leeds behind it.
Showing no ill effects from his impromptu dip, Rowley set up Halifax's first try after nine minutes with a superb pass to Karl Harrison. Although Harrison was stopped before the line by a brave tackle from Wes Cotton, Daio Powell was there to go over from acting half.

The only issue here in this very true statement, is our chairman Michael norris is unlikely to have signed anyone behind folks back.

Apologies I should have stated Board and not chairman I never implied that the chairman/board had signed anyone behind folks backs, only that possibly Paul Rowley may not have been too happy with some of the new signings, team disruption and all that who knows?

I wish Paul Rowley all the very best for the future and the same goes to all Leigh fans, on last seasons visit your fans were a credit, I hope you go well this coming season and achieve your dreams.
