SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.

How would that individual come to be in control if he had not been successful prior to taking control? And also I feel a business man in the real world would have more experience to face challenges in a sports business?
I am not looking for an argument here, I simply wrote an idea out which stemmed from being frustrated reading maurice' posts about this £50. I posted an idea in my head which is probably utter boll***s but the I was raising a point I threw an idea on the table stating the supporters trust should not look to take over but help out.
I am not looking to start a supporters trust personally I was simply saying look I can throw an idea out in the open why can't you?'"
The situation at Warrington is completely different to the one at Leigh , they have control of their stadium and it's income streams in a way Leigh will never have , also that stadium confirmed to them millions of pounds of SKY money , Mr Moran may well occasionally contribute to the club , but he doesn't ' need ' to , Warrington Wolves would quite happily sail along in SL ad without a penny of his money
Whoever takes over at Leigh has a massive job on their hands , and history tells us , they will make a ' pigs ear ' of it , and approximate 4 years down the line , the wheels will fall off and we will be in the same place we are at the moment |

It doesn't matter how long the plan is for , if it doesn't work , nine years ago I sat at the table in the MM bar and said we were there for the long haul , if in ten years we still had a Leigh Centurions club then we would be a success
Well we didn't last ten years , we lasted 4/5 , then we needed bailing out , Arthur has lasted something similar , hopefully whoever cones in will do better than we did , I have my doubts |

Well it is a big job.
History is important from the point of view that there are lessons to be learned and the point of it is surely to ensure that the mistakes of the past are not repeated in the future.
Now if a lesson is not learned there would be no point in teaching it at school.

So why do the same mistakes get made time and time again when it comes to sports clubs frank ?

I have my doubts as well but i always find myself thinking if the likes of castleford and huddersfield can have a bit of success then any club can. |

Correct , unless you can separate the business from the sport , you will make the same mistakes , you have to ' invest ' as much into the business as you do into the sport , if you don't all you are doing is setting yourself up to fail a few years down the line |
