Peter kay agrees , the watcher is king of nauseam

| Quote The Watcher="The Watcher"The Watcher is happy that Beaumont has left our club, at times he was an embarrassment, with his drunken foul mouthed rants on social media. The Watcher does not believe he put in half of the money he allows people to think he put in. Leigh were given £1.25, plus gate money etc etc, that is a hell of a lot of money to run a club. The Watcher also agrees with Beaumont that he was a failure as a RL chairman & made a high percentage of wrong decisions. Beaumont has abandoned Leigh before & it is no surprise to the Watcher that he has abandoned us again. The Watcher for one says thank God the Beaumont road show is over.'"
Did he not have an imput on changing the Championship Salary Cap? Without that we would never have seen SL.
Respect for that. Good luck to him.

Very true, but we still wouldn’t have got to SL without that change. Something the likes of Toronto didn’t have to deal with.

| You definitely got the good, the bad and the ugly with Derek,
The good - Crowds up by about 2.5x on when he took over. Seeing the likes of Fuifui Moimoi that we never thought would happen. Promotion,
The bad - Series of bad decisions that has led to where we are now. Letting his ego / stubbornness / vendetta against the Rowleys cloud his judgement on the coach. Always had the impression he sees himself as part of the playing staff / the star. Don't know if other clubs have the owner front and centre of the team photo! Scrapping the reserves. Relegation.
The ugly - Social media (his brother is even worse), threatening to pull the plug every time someone criticised him
Overall, we'll know at the start of next season whether he has left the club in a better state than he found it in. Unfortunately for all the money, he's too volatile an individual to bring an established SL status to the club.

| Personally I don't care if DB was on the team Photo or, in the team Bath! We would not have enjoyed the journey we have been on this last few years without his presence. As for being outspoken, Donald Trump makes him look timid!! We have seen the crowds increase and it was great to see families, in droves, attending the SL games at the wonderful LSV. Someone said it wasn't his own money he was funding Leigh with but, that of his company  His Company is him and, he could have thrown the money in Pennington Flash had he wanted to!
perhaps some people would argue its achieved the same result however, us supporters have had benefits of his input!
He made mistakes I personally would not have done and his Loyalty to some has been his undoing! DB will know this now and I'm sure he will be a wiser man in the future. I wish him well

It will only become apparent next season, maybe the close season whether he leaves us in a better position than he found us. If we're in a position where the clubs can pay the players when he goes, then he has.
