"I'm not going to lie"

I'm losing more and more respect for this kid every time he opens his mouth lately. In my opinion, he's disrespecting every single person with true mental health issues by insinuating that he was suffering from depression and that the club did nothing to help him. He just had a bad couple of weeks for God's sake, of course he was going to feel a bit down - we all did.

Just shut up and play rugby Ryan, you have a lot to live up to and God help you if you think you've had a stressful time at Leigh - that will be nothing compared to the you'll have to endure if you don't produce at Huddersfield.

As Billy Shakespeare would say , " methinks the gentleman doth protest too much " , I'll give him the benifit of the gender reference

Time to stop talking and start playing

Well said Mish

He really does need to grow up. Considering the club has such a good track record with player welfare it does look like he's having a bit of a strop. Worth noting that all his stress & upset only came about after he stabbed the club in the back. "Considering I'm the only available half back at the moment I want more money or I'm leaving." "We'll see what we can do." "Not quick enough! EVERYONE, SKY, LISTEN! I'M LEAVING!!!" What sort of response was he expecting? A champagne reception while fans carried him round the LSV on their shoulders cheering his name? The unpleasantness of his departure is entirely of his own doing, he made it that way.

As for us knowing he loves us to pieces his actions have made it quite clear he doesn't. It's all about money & his ego. Bye bye Ryan, you won't be greatly missed.

............... and played the day after.

On the way out on Saturday I started reading the history of Leigh RL on the boards under the North Stand and reflected on the broken time payments and the upset that caused with the clubs backing their players and We should be proud that Leigh were central to this. I doubt anyone was running round shouting "Show me the money"

Or maybe someone made a phone call to get a certain someone to go and change it?
There'll be another interview with the both of them appearing in a local paper shortly - Think this will draw a line under the whole thing.

So, a thinly veiled retraction of the poop he has spouted previously then, without a full admission that he & his agent have acted like mercenaries.

Still trying to cover up his wrong doing with smoke & mirrors is young Ryan, a shame really because when this all broke I initially believed there was something inherently wrong at the Club & that maybe DB was to blame for Rowley & then Ryan walking out.

How wrong could I have been.

"In no way can the [i'integrity'[/i of the Club be questioned"

A bit like saying Derek & Jukesy weren't lying about me trying to get another £15k, without actually saying it.

At least us fans still have a special place in Ryan's heart & within a few weeks the Giants fans will hold that special place in his heart, until he can manufacture a move to Salford, then it will be their turn.

Quite sad really, he could have been legendary had he helped to get us into Super Dooper League, then he could have taken his place alongside real Leigh Legends like Des Drummond, John Woods, Alex Murphy, Mick Martyn & Neil Turley.

Cost la vie.

Yeah who's the guy who's been getting all the exclusives from Paul and Ryan?
