| Different argument that PAL, And you wont get me defending them. I havent questioned your fans once so not a like for like argument really is it?
If you do converse in like for like though compare our directors behaviour etc with yours, Did ours take out full page ad in response to the scenes at LSV? Were our directors dignified albeit embarrassed and moved quickly to put right the wrongs, Banning people, Headshots publised etc? Did our directors take to social media in a petty rant with rentagob from another SL team?
HTH PAL

| It's good that Derek is so passionate and ready to defend the club and our players but it is getting a bit much now, just needs to state the facts as they are & leave it at that instead of raising to insults.

You seemed to be unclear as to whats embarrassing to RL, the twitter conversation is open to opinion what we saw live on TV wasn't. Salford and Leigh have owners whose personalities are what they are, both communicate on twitter which is their choice
My opinion of what Widnes as a club did after LSV was smoke and mirrors, but I wouldn't be squatting on the Widnes fans board trying to make that point

| So what you saw on the TV at LSV isnt open for opinion? Really? Dont be silly, My opinion is there should have been arrests but it differs from the Police opinion of the event, Be real

C'mon there are some good Chemics we comics can have proper banter with, you need to have a good walk round Victoria park and improve your social circle

| I've read the twitter debate, I think it can be as simple as :-
Koucash lied and talked b0llocks
Derek came along and set him straight...
End of really.
Struggling to find how it's embarrassing??
Koucash thinks he can do what the hell he likes in this game. In us he found a whole club from Derek, Paul and Ryan we didn't bow down to a guy who thinks he can sign who he likes when he likes !

| That was mine as well Ste, but our Chemic squatter seems intent on sheeite stirring when Andy, Alan and Myself are all very happy to continue to help this club be the best it can be because we are fans who want the best for it
Roll on the big signing, shirt launch and the first game

You come across as a young lad, excitable, giddy and impressionable. I remember your avatar following the Arthur Thomas White Horse all the way to Super League or similar. You now love Derek and all his passion and enthusiasm, So do I, I get it I really do.
Look there are ways with dealing with such matters. In my day a quick phone call used to be enough to nip such matters in the bud and everything remained in private and I have to say eventually resolved immaccably to the satisfaction of all parties.
Now a days it seems that we are happy to go down the route of airing all our grievences in the full public spotlight of social media.
Which solution do you prefer ? Which one is a little more proffesional than airing your dirty linen in public ? Which one is more befitting of a club with Super League ambitions?
You young lads need to realise this damages the club, does us no favours and we really must refrain from it, no matter what the provocation is,
We want to be a seen as a professionable club. Lets be one in every sense of the word please.

Thanks for the compliment on the age situation.
Let's be clear, this is a fans forum not a court of law so bending the truth on here might just happen. Giddiness absolutely do you want to tell me which year in the last 30 Leigh have ever had a better club?
Did I back Arthur Thomas yes I did, did you?? If the structure that exists today had been in place between 06-11 when Arthur was involved we'd have got to SL.
Derek I've no doubt will get us there (again)!!
In a world were social media is at the centre of all debates why would the illegal tapping up of our most prolific player not be a talking point.
I said above why is it embarrassing??

| I respect your opinion. Did I say you are not entitled to one ?
I asked you a question thats all and you chose not to answer it but came back with to me with different ones ?
As it happens Arthur through substantial amounts of money at Leigh. He was generous to a fault. So much so he was decreasing his substantial amount of investment during his latter years of his tenure. WHY ?
He probably realised we was a million miles away.
if the current structure had been in place answer this ? How many grand finals did we contest ? You can include top 2 finishes if you wish just so to be compliable with the current structure.

| The cold harsh facts are that whatever the structure betwern 06-11 we would not have been in SL Fact.
Fans forums and Social media are petfect platforms to discuss such matters in todays digital world,. Again I do / did not proclaim them not to be did I?
My point and obviously lost on some is if it is professional of club chairmen to drag out such differences in the full glaring public spectrum of such platforms.
IMO --In my opinion, I do not think so. I stand by that.

In case you forgot getting to the GF meant nothing.. It was alledgedly about tickin boxes which we did on the playing side twice.... How many GF did the eventual promoted Widnes get to?
It's an obvious point I can never prove as you can't go back in time. However had there been a clear route into SL Arthur would have got us there IMO.
