I have been watching Leigh on and off most of my life. But I believe we have worrying times ahead. I have never posted on this forum before but I feel now is the time to vent my frustrations I was speaking to a current player (who isnt currently playing) and hes reckons half of this current team will not be playing after the middle 8s.
The player I was speaking to says he has took a pay cut to go to Toronto, so all the rumours about them going for the money is not true
Liam Kay... wont play in the middle 8s...Toronto
Johnny Pownall currently off on the sick...Toronto
Greg Worthington...Toronto
Tom Armstrong...Widnes
Martin Ridyard...Not been offerered a new contract
Richard Whiting...Toronto
Adam Higson trying to get out of his contract...Toronto?
Gregg McNally Ditto...Toronto?
Bob Beswick off sick...Toronto
Reni Matua "retiring"??
Andrew Dixon...Toronto
Sam Barlow...big ban looming, why hasnt Derek got rid?
Jake Emmitt...off to Australia...Toronto
I dont think that these players are going to give they're full efforts in the middle 8s
There is defiantly something going on behind the scenes, and I think we should cut these players now and get replacements in.(where possible)

Yours concerned and frustrated

John

Proof

Dont shoot the messenger. I suppose time will tell, but it maybe too late by then

So ur saying all last year's team that failed so miserable when it mattered and how many of these players do u honestly think would handle playing superleague over a 23 game season

If I could decipher you're reply maybe I could give a response.

What gunner is saying is,the players you name (if true) don't have Super League aspirations or simply not up to the level required to start off with.So what would the point be in keeping them anyway?

A coincidental post when elsewhere I posted it was the money they were going for and not entirely Rowley. Most of what you post we already know. This is just another example of someone trying to disrupt the club. Rowley and Brierley both failed as we haven'the lost in the league since game one.

I am not a member of the illuminati, but before every critical part of the season or a critical game up pops a new poster on the forum. I cannot believe you have lurked for years and not wanted to say anything especially after what happened earlier in the year.

Nice try though.

I lost interest where it says Ridy hasn't been offered a contract. He has with a 20% increase. There are various other incorrect statements so as I said nice try

Sorry back again. Whiting also signed a new deal for next year.

A challenge for JohnJohn tell us something we don'the know. I also think they will give there all. If they don'the Jukes will have them out faster than you can say John John is not really that concerned

The players people identified as being disruptive influences (Hansen, Patterson) have been exceptional and brought a professional attitude to the club - as has Weston, Smith and Whiting.

Chase was a terrible signing, but he's in the past.

Cooke joining the coaching set up, and Purtill soon to join, adds to the professional set up.

Rowley has proved to be a sly git since he left us in the cack 10 days before the season started. Any players that want to crawl off and follow him can do one.

Jukes has done a fantastic job this season, regardless of what happens in the 8's

If you think I have an ulterior motive for posting thats youre perogative. But I assure you there is none. How posting on a fans forum can disrupt a team is totally beyond me.
As for the Whiting contract, I suggest you check youre facts, it was never signed!
Anyway there is no point posting on here, just just get slagged off by the 6 people "in the know" or so they think.

If I have been fed a load of bull, time will tell.

But as I said theres no point posting because you lot already know everything!!

Whiting himself said he'd signed a contract for next season in the Legends Bar before the game last week so time has already told you to be wrong. That was quick.

I love these lifelong fans who never go, but have a mate whose being fired off.for point of reference I am Neil Wilcock, who are you Johnjohns?

What?!?!?! I always assumed you were Maurice Lindsay!

What a 'silly/pointless' topic !!!
