Yer, Rowley was so opposed toing Rangi he talked about how pleased he was to sign him, worked with him pre season for months and waited until he had a new job with greater publicity & likely greater pay lined up before deciding "Actually, I don't really like that Rangi Chase, I'm leaving". Yer sure, it was signing Rangi that caused Rowley to leave.

Is that aimed at me

Exactly.

No I meant nob eds that come on here stirring poop up if you think that you fall into that category so be it

What do you mean so be it. You posted it immediately after my post containing one fact and the rest my tongue in cheek opinion which some may not like. So it was a fair assumption it was aimed at me.

There we go, from the man himself. www.mirror.co.uk/sport/rugby-lea ... ng-7999235 No big dressing room fights, no sacking, no cover ups or conspiracy theories. A man who suffered depression upon the break up of his family who wants to make the most of his time with his wife & kids now he's got them back. All the best Rangi, glad he's happy again & hopefully will stay that way.

Just read it. Should you read this throw your tranquilisers away you will get better day by day. Good luck lad.

I wish him all the best but I reckon being out in bars until 4am is not going to help your game if you are a professional sportsman.

While I also wish him the best in the future, it is disappointing that firstly he "tells all" in the Daily Mirror presumably for a fee. Secondly he has not acknowledged how Leigh have tried to look after him in his short spell with us and how disruptive his actions must have been to the club.

Well said, beaumont bent over backwards for him, signed him when nobody else would touch him.

Bare in mind that when people are ill with things like depression
it is very difficult for them to see other peoples perspective or think about other
points of view.

Have people noticed the news of chases departure has not been mentioned on official leigh web site, why? It seems the club avoids negative stories, why? If its club news it should be on the site, its like when penky left, no mention of it.

There is media coverage of this all over the place including the Leigh local papers (which are available online) and Dereks column in the Leigh Observer, that's official enough for me. Not an issue as far as I am concerned.

When Penky left the club released the statement. The Club has released a statement saying Rangi has left. Away from the playing side the club has 6 full time staff, that's all. Agree the website should be better maintained but when there's only 6 people to do everything & everyone already knows you can see why it's not the be all and end all.

People are always having a go at the club for not telling fans what's happening but when they do it either gets completely ignored or deemed to be lies & conspiracy, really can't win.

Best wishes to Rangi. Hope he gets through it. Enjoy the time with your family.
