Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

If this is the case then it all boils down to loyalty, if it's your dream to play for Leigh and you are offered terms, regardless of payment, then take it.
Once again the allure of the pay packet i would say.'"
Or in other words
Welcome to the world of Proffessional RL |

Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.
[b]Littlerich wrote[/b] Widnes will be glad to get away from Leigh. They've been regularly pumped, roasted and left in the alley-way by the lobbygobblers. Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

Obviously not that big a dream then

| i have no idea if this kid is any good, so can't comment, but as has been said his dream to play for his beloved leigh, well do me a favour, i'd have more respect if he said i'll sign for whoever is prepared to pay me the most cash, end of, good luck at widnes.  |

if he wanted too play for leigh, he would have, obviously meant, wanted to play for Leigh for the right money!
Ian Mort is a prime example of wanting to play for Leigh!

I go back to my last point, no one knows what Leigh offered. It might have been paltry sum. Loyalty doesn't come in to it when you have a mortgage to pay and/or mouths to feed! I think you're all being a bit harsh on the lad without knowing the facts. |

Given the fact that he's a junior player, I wouldn't imagine he is quite at the "food on the table" stage just yet (never know, mind). |

In that case you cannot allow sentiment to get in the way of providing for your family
Maybe if the original poster had known this he would not have posted in the way he did
All the best to the lad , hope things work out at Widnes except when they play us |

you may think I'm an idiot, but it's nice to know I've been judged by my peers.:Black Backgrounds/Gonzo the Great.gif |

'Chalky' is doing ok for the reserves anyway, and we have a hooker out on loan at Blackpool so did we need him with Jock and Smith in the first team?

A good old saying is that footballers spend 90 minutes pretending they are injured. Rugby players spend 80 minutes pretending their not. Also there is no such thing as bad weather only the wrong clothes.:18604.jpg |

Jackson has potential but I can not agree about Dainty,hasnt he got a dodgy knee ? |
