I think you know the answer to the question, don't you?'"
I genuinely don't know the answer. I do know that Mike Norris is still Chairman (because he was at the Cenotaph laying the Centurions' wreath this morning) but other than that, nothing is ever mentioned about any of the others.

| We have a board of directors, one man can't run the club single handed. One of the directors has put more of his own money in, this doesn't mean he could run the club without the support of directors. It is a team effort. If by putting more money in this gives him more of a say, then so be it. The club hasn't been in this strong a position for many years. Derek Beaumont was in charge the last time we got to SL. I for one find his passion for the club to be genuine and can only thank him for his efforts. He has always maintained that he along with the rest of the board are only the custodians of the club and it belongs to the fans. I do dispare at the in fighting among fans and the level of less than subtle questioning of how things are run. It truly is a turn off for any lapsed fans who read this board.

| The Yorkshire Evening Post report that we are threatening to report Leeds over their illegal advances. I am sure the statement says that we are not reporting them. Peter Smith of the Yorkshire Evening post can be reached at @PeterSmithYEP on twitter

| Speak to Sam Barlow's agent Derek. He did it at Fax and he'll continue to tout his player to SL clubs.

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 |

Believe me rich, he can tout all he wants now, I've known Dereck for nearly 25 years, and he can be as stubborn and bloody minded as anybody I have ever met, I'd suggest Sam just concentrates on playing RL for the next 12 months at least, because otherwise he WILL be turning out for the reserves
The same applies to Ryan as well, a line has been drawn in the sand

| And I hope that's the case. All too often players & their agents give their current employers the run around. I know for a fact that Barlow and his agent created havoc for the Fax B.O.D

| It's a bit premature Mish but Charlie has told me Derek and Gary Hetherington will be boxing next Saturday evening.
Squash him Derek

| I think that press release went on a bit to be perfectly honest. Just look at the title of it - "Beaumont hailing the start of the full time era?" We don't play our first real match until mid-Feb for goodness sake! Perhaps simply an excuse to make a statement about Brierley and Barlow and million pound offers that don't exist.
Not quite Faisal Nahboohoo territory just yet but I regret the fact that we seem to be going down the one-man band show path for the umpteenth time. It never seems to end well.
And I have no agenda!

Mish does seem to have an agenda imo
What is realism is that the needs of the club have changed massively from when we came together to now, and the club must change how it is run to meet the new reality. People didn't get involved in 2013 for a blazer or a bit of Kudos, they got involved because nobody else was putting their hands up and the club was an inch away from administration after not paying players and an unpaid tax bill creating a winding up order at the High Court
The club today has a clear strategy on how to become the best it can be, and a majority shareholder with ambition and willing to finance the dream. Previous Directors will tell you of the pressures of running your own business whilst committing significant time to LRLFC,ie your own business often suffers or you simply cant give the time needed
In the main the BoM of 2013 where fans, today we are still fans, as we will be tomorrow, next year etc Our primary focus will always be the interests of the club we love and ensuring it is passed on for the next generation to enjoy as we have - no matter what role we play or title we have, personally I prefer 'Fan'
2015 will be brilliant - lets all play our role in its success

Well he can do it all he like if Sam doesn't put a stop to it Derek won't put up with it for long !!!!
Given how many forwards we now have it will have if rumours and true then if I were Sam if call his agent and tell him to stop it
