| Quote: WYSIWYG "When will you let the bitterness go?
We played champagne rugby and had a great team spirit under Paul. It was DB who has caused and continues to cause the problems at Leigh. He did the same thing in 2005. Boom and bust!!
Good luck to Paul Rowley. He has done a fantastic job at Toronto in the 2 years he has been coach. I am sure he will get Toronto into SL next season. Wish he was still at Leigh.'"
The Sky pundits were discussing rumours, after the game, that he won't be at Toronto next season. As for Paul's time at Leigh, I wasn't his number one fan, but yet I still get this nagging feeling that, just like Brierley and others, we only ever did get fed one side of the story! |

He will be sacked unfortunately. I am hearing they have a very good coach lined up to take them to the next level. |

The person who has mentioned Rowley the most on here is Peter. |

He's no good - the lad is huge but couldn't bust through a wet paper bag. He was crap at Wigan, he was crap here, and christ knows why Saints then signed him. Predictably, he was crap there as well.
He's now where he belongs, in NL1.[/quote]:White Backgrounds/Gonzo the Great.gif |

Not interested in any other clubs or coaches - and who has been sacked or left. I just hope we can keep KP a great coach and a great person. I make the assumption that we will have a team next year in any league.
Hopefully this forum will discuss relevant rugby topics and not be a platform for disgruntled ex-players.

Fingers crossed for KP - served his apprenticeship at SL and worked with top players at England Knights. Looks like he’s well thought of in RL circles too.
Perhaps a skeleton staff next year (*thats IF we can get an investor) is Higham going to play on? If not KP should bring him in as his number 2 for his knowledge, enthusiasm, love of Leigh and the respect he has earned in Rugby league. |

He left for his own reasons (I'm not sure I would work for a megalomanic either) but I do know one thing, all the lads that COULD follow him did so that tells me what sort of character he is. But you know what, as Atomic says above, his and hopefully Beaumont's era has gone and given the position we're in at the moment, I think we should concentrate on our own club rather than anyone else's.'"
Agree 100% |

Rowley & Beaumont are both as bad as each other.
That relationship could have made Leigh a superb proposition and a real attractive club for players & youngsters with bright successful future.
Instead both tried to get the upper hand and both failed.

Worst coach in RL Paul Rowley, has had literally millions to spend at Leigh and Toronto, and has got neither of them promoted.
His teams have ill disipline on and off the feild, the teams have high error percentages and can't see out a game. It works against Dewsbury and such, but when teams come with a bit of back bone like London were you have to get into an arm wrestle, then his tactics are useless.

I enjoyed the style of rugby we played under Rowley, when you throw the ball around as much as we did during his era, there’s bound to be errors, I can live with that as the great tries we scored outweighed the errors. |
