All a bit tit for tat. A better example should be being set from the top...

I wonder if the ban would still have been put in place had Leigh been doing well in these Qualifiers...

I think it is sad. I will be watching us on Saturday from turkey but I don't give much hope. This format has seen us drop like a stone!

Bradford Bulls banned Derek from Odsal twice, the 2nd time being our fixture in July. We are returning the favour...

as for the salary cap, its a nonsense to start with at 1.8m never mind a salary cap with two amounts in the same competition.

Im sure the legal eagles will solve it...

as a reminder without Dereks significant investment we wouldnt have a pray of the middle 8's...

There's definitely a tit involved somewhere in this.

The Bulls didnt ban Beaumont once, nevermind twice. They refused him free tickets for the Bulls v Fev game. They sent him tickets to Bulls v Leigh but our Des threw the teddy out and sent the tickets back to the Bulls. Not sure how it's the same at all.

Mate you are completely wrong, ask your own chairman. Derek Beaumont was banned from accessing the Odsal stadium. When you have asked your own chairman come back and tell me his answer.

What got sent back to the Bulls in July was the 'other' complimentary tickets sent for other directors and leigh officials. It was made clear Derek Beaumont would be refused entry.

What's that got to do with anything?

Are you saying that because he has put money into Leigh then he can say and act as he pleases?

Since that opening game both clubs have acted like ******* kids.

Is that more clear for you?

Say and act as he pleases, in what way... the article is about 4 more signings, challenging an illegal salary cap and providing the same 'like for like' treatment to the Bulls chairman.

Sounds like you've got a similar temper to your owner. Calm down dear.

And yes, nobody comes our of this in a good light.

Exactly, "like for like" - childish.

The fella's been at it all season.


Spend your money, Derek Beaumont, if you want and thank you very much, but don't think it gives you some kind of superior status in life.

Exactly, ducky.

At least you understood my second post.

"[iMEN Sport understands that Beaumont will ignore the salary cap restrictions next year and will continue bankrolling the on-going development of what is already a strong, thriving club.[/i"

That could be interesting.

Whichever way you read it, Derek comes out of this looking like a prat.

Whether he was banned from Odsal or not, and whether he agrees with the cap or not, he needs to show a bit of professionalism when he speaks for the club. It is embarrassing, and it's an example of why we get the negativity from other clubs

You'll drop like a stone in Turkey Snowy..Just got back and it's steaming for this time year..But not as hot as LSV will be on Saturday.
