Some people never learn. The originator of this post is well known for having a large wooden spoon. Pinch of salt?

If at first you dont succeed ......... Cheat:8037.jpg



Poor referee decisions cost us dearly leading to at least 3 Seagull tries and cost us at least 2 of our own as well , but other general ref blunders cost us stacks of possession in dangerous areas .

I'm not a ref basher at all, but the knock on in the last minute was a big blow, as for the touch judges-one of them should have seen McNally get chinned off their best player too.

They scored from their next play.

Quote: jonny the leyther "

And Nicco and McGilvary were our only fit players Mookachaka, what would you have done?

'"


I'll put the team I would have played:

1. McNally
2. McGilvary
3. Maden
4. Gardner
5. Pownall
6. Ridyard
7. Duffy
8. Ostick
9. Beswick
10. Spencer
11. Littler
12. Briscoe
13. Taylor

14. Nicholson
15. Thornley
16. Gallagher
17. Brierley

That leaves a more convincing bench, 2 props in Thornley and Gallagher, a 9 interchange in Nicholson his only decent position for me, and Brierley to be backrow interchange, with Duffy going 13 like Leeds used to do (McGuire, Burrow and Sinfeild)

God I hope so.....this lad (like Bracek) as been a stand out player in that side and would be 1st choice winger for me.

Decent shout to be fair to you, although I think Talu'papa would make mince meat out of McGilvaray on that wing.

[i:5a56um9q]Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.[/i:5a56um9q] [b:5a56um9q]George Orwell [/b:5a56um9q] [i:5a56um9q]There are none so blind as those who will not see.

Quote: Mookachaka "His squad selection for me was bad, Nicholson 13, McGilvary on the bench............. [iI won't repeat myself though,[/i I hope Paul has a good season next year, if not, its time to get rid, as hes cost us a final spot the other day with his mismanagement and tactics'"


Thank Christ for that cos I've just read through pages of you repeating yourself over three different threads.

You can now assume that we all understand.

Quote: Dick Jones "No problems with the current ones but a few that who are no longer with us, would do a great job too,so I disagree with your statement Charlie, Derek was good with the media, others dealt with the academies and signed up great players like Hilly and Taylor I could go on.'"

Lynda , i think you have got me wrong , i wasnt having a go at anyone , though it may of seemed so , after your PM , i was just doing a bit of Fishing icon_wink.gif ,i was and still am a fan of Derek B , hope you didnt take offence . icon_biggrin.gif .

Let's hope we don't try and spend Money we don't have next season and end up back in trouble.
Let's stick with the ones signed up and fill the under 23s with young players

Think of the u23 team we could have with all the SL reserve players that will be released............their loss could prove to be the making of Leigh for the future.......could end up with a lot of SL fringe players in our U23`s that can be used to cover injuries.

Things are looking good for us.

Bolton by birth, Irish by blood, LEYTHER by heart and soul!! [quote="BBC Sport":suio7kr3]30/04/06 "Some of W*gan's travelling fans headed towards the exit before it was even over.".................no change there then!![/quote:suio7kr3] [quote="Wembley71":suio7kr3].....They are our people. Drummond, Costello, Manfredi, Svabic, Martyn, Street, Tickle, Patel, Mossop, Horo, Bristow, Leuleui, Varley, Fleary, Rivett, Tabern, Doran, Woods, Donlan, Wilshire, Leaefa, Hansen, Sale, Murphy… these are all my people. As a Leyther, you’re one of us the moment you come here to wear the shirt. I don't care where you were born, what colour you are, what religion you are, what language you speak.

Quote: Tipster Ste "There's been some 5hite written over the years but we have the gold medal winner here. We should be offering Paul a medal for what he's achieved and a contract extension.

Somebodys wrote wrong team selection??? We only had 17 available players.

We will win the treble next year. Paul's building his squad and won't have to suffer the same difficulties this off season.

Well done Paul Rowley 2012 Coach of the Year!'"


Agreed - some on here just don't like PR. The lad could have won us the treble - and the Challenge Cup, and they'd still find fault in his selection policies!!

The squad we are assembling, and the team spirit that has been engendered.....we'll p[ii[/iss this league next year!!

It's staggering why people have any beef with Paul? He's leyther through and through.

Maybe if he started a sentence with G'Day all fans would love him and the board would be discussing a contract extension??

Mind boggles???

At the time of Rowleys appoiintment I was one of the biggest nay-sayers on here. About half way through the season I realised I was wrong and admitted it.
That stands.
