That might happen Frank, if there was a clear direction from the board that said, we are looking to breaking the arrangement we have to be Wigan's reserve team and we would prefer to sign permanent players rather than use DR's in the future. Otherwise if we carry on as we are then I and a lot of others will continue to criticise and not contribute. |

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
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.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

The thing that has changed is the Dual Contract player thing which like most you are against but has served Leigh well in the league we are in.

Are you trying to make a point here frank? Because if you are I am not getting it  |

Probably still too early for that yet, I am sure they will be looking at the situation
But it is essentially a seperate issue
Personally the DR issue has no bearing on wether I attend games or not ATM |

I don't think it is too early. The new board have been watching Leigh all season and must have their opinions on the arrangement we have with Wigan.
I don't understand why thsi is a different issue. Using Wigan Reserves and DRs means we don't have to sign as big a squad. Maybe better from a financial point of view but means team selection is controled by Wigan or Warrington or whoever as much as our own coach as they determine the availability of the DRs. We have seen this many times, DRs who have become key players in our team being withdrawn at the key end of the season. It is this that I object to. I would prefer to see a sqaud of (maybe) less talented players signed to Leigh, the team selection of which is controlled completely by our coaching staff. |

I have a small local business, I would consider sponsorship, nothing grand before anyone gets any ideas. |
