| Very strange for Paul to say the club has commented further, the only comments I've heard from either the club or people involved with it have been entirely positive, praising his work and saying they regret his departure. Suggests Paul never intended to keep quiet as he said. Disappointing for him to make these comments, think he needs to decide if he either wants to come clear and say why he left and give the full reason or not and keep quiet. Comments like this do no one any good, they reignite the rumour mill just as it's all started to die down and chip away at the respect Leigh fans have for Paul.
Despite his comments about morals and integrity there's still no new information, I still don't believe Derek or anyone at the club would act completely contrary to everything they've said & done up to now, I don't believe other people involved in the club would allow anyone to drive Rowley away without others leaving in protest, I don't think his dad would still remain involved if it was serious. I don't think Derek would sign players Paul didn't want (& if he did Paul would have left months ago when they were signed not now), nor do I think Derek would say who's playing (despite not having the opportunity to do so until this week after Paul quit). I don't think there's any chance you could get away with doping the determination anti-doping authorities in acting anyone (who doesn't have the money of the Russian Athletics) nor do I think the RFL would approve a signing which takes us over the salary cap which has been increased massively from last year (which we were still under). The idea of some big fall out with the club still doesn't make sense or fit what we know.

It appears so, never said I heard from a reliable source ![Smile icon_smile.gif](images/smilies//icon_smile.gif) Either way Crown Court is quite serious. Noticed a FB post from him last night which would suggest he is still in Leighs corner.

Good lad is Sam, in my humble opinion.
Keeping my fingers crossed for him.

| Rowley hardly lifted any lid on the reasons for him leaving in that interview, seems a pretty pointless one to be honest. Sure sooner or later the truth will out, my theory is he didn't want a certain signing (but DB went over his head) and in early stages of his Leigh career the player in question has been involved in incidents already.
Sure we have all heard various stories out and about relating to the reason he has left, lets move on and hopefully D*ckhead Derek will do the same and keep his gob shut about on field issues and expectations.
