| Interesting post that. Plenty to ponder.
Sometimes you do wonder if some of the signings and more recent contract extensions are all the decisions of the coach. We will never know.

| Quote: theredshed "The Rowley news came as a huge shock, he was in my view Mr Leigh.
At Salford we had a very similar situation where an extremely enthusiastic owner couldn't help but get involved in matters he was absolutely clueless about. I think some of these owners think just because they've done OK in business that they're better qualified to call all the shots. It's an ego trip for them and they can't help but befriend/socialise with the bigger named players. The problem is they become too approachable and an owners ear can be extremely disruptive to what a coach is trying too achieve.
Fortunately for us it seems the penny has eventually dropped with Dr Koukash after leaning a very hard lesson.'"
Are you assuming that?.....or Confirming that? Either way you seem to know what the problem was.

Something that happened back in September and they hit us with it today in the middle of all this.
Wednesday - McNally out for who knows how long.
Thursday - Rowley gone, rumours of Brierley leaving (and Beswick and Worthington and A.N Other)
Friday - Ando banned for 4 matches for something that happened months ago.
Saturday? - Derek decides he's had enough and Rangi Chase runs off to join the Circus (no, not back to Salford!)
Never a dull moment

oh and Jason Donohue has stepped down from his position with the CPA too stating he had 'taken one for the team'.'"
I know it's like the needle is stuck, but we really do need to improve on last season's disciplinary record. This suspension/fine is just another example of that.

| I'm concerned that what was once a community project involving the people of Leigh a handful of years ago appears to be turning into a millionaires personal hobby.

Well you've not blown it away have you lol!
So we lost to the worst team in Super League, when they had 2 injuries..... And Rowley is a mastermind coach?
People are getting caught up on titles, not losing a game all year, getting far in the challenge cup and signing Moi Moi doesnt get you into Super League.....
When played Hull KR and they just blew the game, it came apparent that the tactics being used are dumb and schoolboy like

| Reading the 2 public statements it appears Paul Rowley really didn't really want to resign and had his ideal job, but felt he had no other option. Or maybe the 2 statements were mutually agreed upon in advance.
I'd like to think Derek is working tirelessly to reverse this decision and fix any disagreements or internal and relationship problems that may have overwhelmed the people involved. Paul Rowley deserved the squad he now had and it's a damn shame if he doesn't get to see the fruits of his labour and achieve the collective potential over the next 12 months and beyond. I'm sure we all foresaw PR at the helm for the next 3-5 years and eventually in Super League. I think a lot of the players will be disappointed and demotivated by what has happened.
Could the recent resignation be related to this article below. PR rightfully wanting to operate professionally and quietly going about business and DB with the intention of bringing eyeballs and media attention to the club ultimately generating more sales for AB Sundecks immediately - which as club sponser must be the objective. And PR not wanting to operate under such conditions?
