Well said Dek.

Those words again!!!
"“I fully intended to see out my contract with Leigh Centurions, but there’s certain things I don’t agree with at the club and that’s for everyone to make their own mind up on."

The question is will you all choose to bury your heads in the sand or wake up to what people are trying to tell you?

So let me get this straight- leigh fans are blaming Ryan brierley for this- the player who has been one of your most influential players and throughout all the media circus that Beaumont has courted has continued to give his absolute all on the field. You are believing the word of Beaumont, who has embarrassed himself and the club on numerous occasions with his rants. Who does Beaumont name as the club who has made an offer? Not the many superleague clubs who have already tried to pay substantial transfer fees and would be in a position to pay brierley much bigger sums given the bigger salary cap. Bradford. The team who are Leigh's biggest rivals and have previously banned him from their ground because of his disgraceful behaviour. The championship side that would be a sideways move for a player who has been offered the opportunity to play at the very top of RL with the multi winning champions.
Your long standing coach has left due to integrity-the fact that they aren't publicly stating hat it's in regard to might be because they have the fans and players future in mind. wake up- Something doesn't smell right.

And lol at how "crap" brierley has suddenly become overnight in the eyes of the fans

But Nat, it's "those words" it doesn't actually say anything does it ? Pointless reaction from Brierley, but have to admit the final few lines from him, made me have a little weep. But I'm OK now.

Potentially leaving on 1 april... Maybe it's one hell of an elaborate April fools joke..

Shame for the genuine fans when you can't just concentrate on what's on the pitch.

For what it's worth I think you will get back to winning ways against Sheffield and that will hopefully help blow some of this over...

What are you on about? If there is something he doesn't agree with, then tough. Like iv'e said before, Let him take his dummy elsewhere.

nothing in that reply that you wouldn't have expected to be in

Well said, I think so too.

Lots of things people don't like at work .But they cant just say im leaving ,jobs are hard to come by

Absolutely correct prop.

No matter who has said what, who is lying, or whatever the **** is going on at the club, Brierly leaving is a huge loss.

Losing Rowley was bad enough.

Recovering proper from these first few weeks is gonna take some doing.

Fair enough ant, but when you read the statement from the club it concludes..............

The statement concludes:

The Club has faced some difficult times recently with continuous injuries on the field and various issues off it. However, we are all confident that Neil and the team are pulling together and will fight hard through this adversity.

We will be a very strong group once we come out the other side. The Board of Directors would like to take this opportunity to thank our loyal fans for their continued support which is greatly appreciated.

I support this, and will be attending tomorrow's game.

What is the betting that Brierley's 'reaction' to the Club statement was written well before last night. He knew what was coming and had his reply lined up ready to send to his mouthpiece at Total RL. The same guy who has been the 1st to know about every leak and bit info to come out of the club in recent months.

Whole thing is a joke. If he wants to walk out when we are in the middle of a massive struggle to get fit players on the field then he should just go and we are right to suspend him.

The whole media circus around him has been going on for 2 years now non stop. I'm bored with it now. Just let him go, see if we can get any money for him if possible and then move on.

"Brierley has hit back at his FORMER employers".

ABSOLUTELY SPOT ON.
