Ok Rowleys gone thanks for the memories but leave us alone and get on with your life. I dont know the real reason for going. Plenty rumours. I dont really care. Just want to get back to enjoying the Leigh family experience without the rumours of who is going to join him at the next stage of his career. Lets all get behind Derek and the club and forget the past COME ON LEYTHERS. JOG ON ROWLEY

I would say the fans have moved on.

Ok it's the post Rowley era and I accept the need to move on...
But he's been a cracking servant to Leigh, even more so in your "austerity" season where his team punched way above their weigh and in my opinion performed much better than the 2015 cohort....
OK he's left... and the reasons may never be made public... but there were reasons!!!
Does "Jog on" seem a little disrespectful for a bloke that brought so much to the table???
I can't get my head around that.
Daryl Powell left Fev.... most Fev fans would have him back in a flash... and you rarely hear of him in critical terms at the club (though I'm not one advocating going backwards should he ever become available again).
Isn't it just as easy not to say owt than show disregard for one of your own - even when he's left the club? Or is it just me and my daft sense of sentiment?

Poaching our players isnt at all respectful. Or is it just me

With the 'orchestrated' publicity at the Salford v Wire game, its not difficult to wok out who tipped SKY off. It seems Rowley isn't finished with Derek yet.

The title of this thread should be "jog on Beaumont", because he is more harmful to Leigh than Rowley is or ever was.

without DB would we have a had a team

Answer to that is a huge NO, but what other option did we have at the time?

Of course you would....
Maybe not the team you have now... maybe not a table topping team...
But you'd still be competitive...
To think differently is absurd

Say what you want but Derek Beaumont is a rich man, a very passionate Leigh Supporter who wants to see Leigh back where they belong. He has (and is continuing) to pump a lot of his personal hard earned into Leigh.

A lot more than most on here have who have equally enjoyed the last 2 years Derek has helped to pay for. Get off the mans back.

Of course we could go back to life without any part of Derek's involvement. Getting annihilated by over 60 points at Halifax a couple of years ago with no money to pay the players.

That will be no concern to most on here. As it will only be the likes of myself , Demon, Alan and Tipster back to witness it all again.

The rest will be back to being Wigan fans or sat in the pub watching association football and waiting for the Leigh result to laugh at.

Some make my blood boil.

Makes my blood boil as to why the club as not issued any statement.That is unless the clubs legal representative is taking out an injunction or some other legal procedure to assatain if ryan can just give 4 weeks notice without breaking his contract

Even if that's the case, he wants out and his position is untenable and we should let him go. The annoying thing is, if he wanted to leave, we could've accepted a bid for him the other week. Did the player make it clear that he wanted to leave?

Or it's not true, in which case you could've expected a denial by club and player by now.

This has been handled terribly.

Agree totally and like I put on another thread we have lost 1 game so far this season (in injury time).
I'll take this 'crisis' whilst watching ex Internationals with us still standing an excellent chance of promotion (something that didn't even exist for many years)over the I wonder if the club still exist ones we are more used to.
DB is a passionate fan backing the club with his cash, he won't get it right all the time just as everything that goes wrong isn't his fault.

Agreed. I am a Leigh fan and always will be.

Am not happy with players who do not appreciate how they are letting our club down.
