| The thing that worries me most is that I don't believe the board are being as open and transparent as they would lead us to believe (what happened to 'We're all in this together')?.
If we're going back to the days of secrecy and everything being done behind closed doors, then they should come out and tell us that it's none of our business, but if they're still keen to lead us to believe that we're all in this together, I think we should be told what's going on and who's in charge down there.

I've exchanged emails with Rob this morning and he has not left the club this is correct.

| Mish you aren't half doing some poopooh stirring on this, what is your objective?
I see it as the chairman steps down, statements are issued and the club restructures and we move on
Yet we Have had the biz makers telling us rob has walked and he hasn't, I simply don't get it This is such an important year and we are in such a great position?
Are some folk happier when we are a losing on the pitch and in financial disaster?

How many of those involved in the financial disaster are going to be on the BOD, has the new broom not been as efficient as it was first thought?

| I can't understand why these rumours are bring given such credence.
I'm sure the club will inform us in due course of any changes to governance at the club, and we as fans can take it from there.
Trying to figure out if we like the changes when we're not even sure if they go beyond a change of Chairman seems like a waste of energy, all whilst generating negativity around the club.
If people want to keep up the gossiping then that's fine with me, but I really don't understand it.

Something has 'gone off' in the boardroom. The chairman has gone and other directors are not happy with a recent turn of events. That is a fact.
Supporters are rightly concerned and an unofficial fans forum is the outlet for fans to discuss it all. The reason people are showing concern is not because we are losing or in financial difficulty. It is because we have come so far and the ultimate goal is within sight, it would be a travesty to see it all undone now on the back of a power struggle. Nothing was broke as far as I could see, it didn't need fixing. The structure was working so well.
We were all in this together.

Aside from the Chairman going, can you provide any evidence of any of the rest of your statement being fact?

They aren't rumours, they're fact. I don't do rumours and wouldn't post it if I didn't know it to be true.

'Hi-Ho Silver Lining'
Headingley 05th October 2014.:1392.gif |

| I'm a bit confused.
I thought some of the people on here posting with different user names are part of the BOM or have I got that wrong ?
I've often noticed ego's get involved with business and successful sports clubs so its not unusual to have jockeying for position or fallouts behind closed doors and whilst things are currently great and going well I think we all need a little reminder.
- We've won nothing yet.
- We've achieved nothing yet.
If we get it wrong (and by 'we' I mean the collective ,the BOM who currently run the club, the fans who currently support the club, the players and staff who work for the club, as that's what being in this together really means) we will go back years.
The chairmen has gone , for now I respectfully suggest the guys running our club sort matters out in a boardroom and keep the easy to suss out user names silent on message boards as it can be damaging (even if its not meant that way).
I've every confidence in what is going on and the team running our club but heads maybe need cracking to keep focus, Leigh is a professional Sports club with ambition not yet achieved - lets ensure for once at Leigh Centurions that ambition is achieved, to do that we ALL have a part to play.

The rest of my statement refers to directors not being happy.
Ask one of the directors outright as I did. Another director Andy has referred on here to 'factors' that would prevent him being Chairman.
Not that I wish to speak for Andy ( I have not spoke to him) but as you read his posts on here as I do, he don't sound happy with events of late. Of course that may just be because he fancied fish and chips for tea last night and his local chippy was shut
But I seriously doubt it.

| I don't post very post very often but I just can't believe all the negative posts and the different versions of events which have gone on or supposed to be going on with ourBOM .why can't some folk just let BOM sort things out instead of putting 2&2 together making 5 . The players don't need this distraction so let's get behind them tmw and for the remainder iof the season. We are in this together and I have complete faith in the BOM .
