OK, Agree I agree that the guy has a bit of an edge, but to say he has buried our club is a load of bollux, I attended all but 3 of Leigh's games last season home and away included the those first 6, as always I pay attention to everything that happens on the pitch and I never saw Beaumont once miss a tackle, drop a ball, give a forward pass etc, and it was the same with the coaches who were employed - albeit I didn't agree with their tactics and game plans -, the only people to blame were some of those over-rated, over-payed, couldn't care less men in the cherry and white shirts, employed to do a job and completely messed it up.
Be honest, after the trial games v Wigan and Saints were you exited for the season ahead, and giving praise to the guy's who assembled and payed to group them together? I was and I didn't speak to anyone who thought they would fail in the spectacular manner in which they did, had that team gone unbeaten you would now be praising Beaumont, he is victim to being let down by those he payed good money to and subsequently let him and the rest of us all down.

Funny then that you being SO knowledgable about RL didn't forecast that back in February on the prediction thread
Always good to look back as I've just done at various posters thoughts on how this squad would do , some right moaners on here were proclaiming we'd go unbeaten and praising Derek , Jukes and Cunningham on assembling this years squad
Hindsight ? , wonderful thing

Players may have been the ones to miss tackles, drop balls etc... But they were totally unprepared for the season. That was the fault of the coach. The fact the coach was still in place was the fault of the owner.

Never missed a tackle? It was noted a few times in the latter part of the season that Beaumont was away and not at matches.
You may of missed my first post a few weeks ago, if you wish to defend Beaumont, can you explain why a current coach at Warrington said to me in person that he wouldnt join Leigh because of Beamont?
And can you explain why Jack Hansen and other local Leigh lads wont join Leigh? One lad I know dosen't like DB and wont join.

How so were they unprepared Leythig, tgey had a pre season together played 3 trial games two against the top two clubs in the land, who both played strong teams against them, and just to add most of them had either SL or NRL expierience it is not as though they were brought together from the wilderness or they were all recruits from Rugby Union who had bever played League before, no they were seasoned professionals and in those first 5 losses they could not hack it with 2 other fill time teams and 3 part time teams, I was one of those who didn't want Jukes to and Cunningham to carry on in '18, but that squad could and should have won those 5 games with the 'supposed' quality they possesed, they simply let everyone down.

You have miss read me Ginja, I am not exhonerating Beaumont of all blame he has his faults, but not one were he assembled a squad together that should have won that league easily,I to would gave been getting ed of with them if I was paying them small fortunes to have the attitude some of those player's displayed thrown back in my face.

Not really a squad that should've won the league easily. No full back, no pace in the team, two half backs too similar to each other, then lost two prop forwards (Vaivai and Patrick) early which left us light up front.

Good points, but please expand on your "unprepared for the season"
