So what you saw on the TV at LSV isnt open for opinion? Really? Dont be silly, My opinion is there should have been arrests but it differs from the Police opinion of the event, Be real

Quote: Tipster Ste "I've read the twitter debate, I think it can be as simple as

You come across as a young lad, excitable, giddy and impressionable. I remember your avatar following the Arthur Thomas White Horse all the way to Super League or similar. You now love Derek and all his passion and enthusiasm, So do I, I get it I really do.

Look there are ways with dealing with such matters. In my day a quick phone call used to be enough to nip such matters in the bud and everything remained in private and I have to say eventually resolved immaccably to the satisfaction of all parties.

Now a days it seems that we are happy to go down the route of airing all our grievences in the full public spotlight of social media.

Which solution do you prefer ? Which one is a little more proffesional than airing your dirty linen in public ? Which one is more befitting of a club with Super League ambitions?

You young lads need to realise this damages the club, does us no favours and we really must refrain from it, no matter what the provocation is,

We want to be a seen as a professionable club. Lets be one in every sense of the word please.

LIVING THE DREAM ALL THE WAY TO THE SUPER LEAGUE PLAY-OFFS! ''All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them'':Black Backgrounds/Miss%20Piggy.gif

Thanks for the compliment on the age situation.

Let's be clear, this is a fans forum not a court of law so bending the truth on here might just happen. Giddiness absolutely do you want to tell me which year in the last 30 Leigh have ever had a better club?

Did I back Arthur Thomas yes I did, did you?? If the structure that exists today had been in place between 06-11 when Arthur was involved we'd have got to SL.

Derek I've no doubt will get us there (again)!!

In a world were social media is at the centre of all debates why would the illegal tapping up of our most prolific player not be a talking point.

I said above why is it embarrassing??

I respect your opinion. Did I say you are not entitled to one ?

I asked you a question thats all and you chose not to answer it but came back with to me with different ones ?

As it happens Arthur through substantial amounts of money at Leigh. He was generous to a fault. So much so he was decreasing his substantial amount of investment during his latter years of his tenure. WHY ?
He probably realised we was a million miles away.

if the current structure had been in place answer this ? How many grand finals did we contest ? You can include top 2 finishes if you wish just so to be compliable with the current structure.

The cold harsh facts are that whatever the structure betwern 06-11 we would not have been in SL Fact.

Fans forums and Social media are petfect platforms to discuss such matters in todays digital world,. Again I do / did not proclaim them not to be did I?

My point and obviously lost on some is if it is professional of club chairmen to drag out such differences in the full glaring public spectrum of such platforms.

IMO --In my opinion, I do not think so. I stand by that.

In case you forgot getting to the GF meant nothing.. It was alledgedly about tickin boxes which we did on the playing side twice.... How many GF did the eventual promoted Widnes get to?

It's an obvious point I can never prove as you can't go back in time. However had there been a clear route into SL Arthur would have got us there IMO.
