Quote: Bigtimeleigh "Whilst you are correct that financial backing and a quality HB got us into superleague along with other factors, one of which was Neil jukes, like it or not.
Those two main factors as you put it are still in place, the financial backing, and a creative player who was in the NRL team of the season not too long ago so it’s not like those factors have changed, I’m not defending today’s result as it’s appailing and unacceptable, but I feel as though the make or break point with jukes will be over the next 3 games, which may result in Ridyard having a say in if jukes will remain. He won’t be dismissed after today but with last seasons failings and a poor start he must be on a very thin rope..... but I hope he can turn it round and prove us all wrong like we know he has in the past'"
The majority of posters on this Forum are Leigh fans, and we all sincerely hope the Club can turn this unfortunate season start around, I have said Jukesy won't resign, and I doubt Derek will fire him, the question is Can we afford to wait the outcome of the next 3 games
That will be a quarter of the season gone, and maybe a top 2 spot gone as well.For me Both Jukesy and KC need to leave the Club,the brand of rugby being played is not good enough , I didn't go to the game today, but listened on LCTV, the commentery stated that Barrow had a completion rate of 100% at one point, yet Leigh's was vastly inferior,we have also gone 2 second halves now without scoring a point, our next 3 opponents are Toulouse, Fev, and Fax , 3 possible losses under current form,come early March things could look very dismal, myself whatever happens I will still be there cheering the lads on , but what what will be the attendances if we continue like this?
We has lost 900 Season Ticket holders which is very worrying, and had a drop of over 2000 on the crowd from the Toronto game to the Batley game, now Toulouse won't bring any fans, we could have a sub 2000 crowd next Sunday, with Derek wondering why.
