I will have more than a pint on that pal as we don't have the props to dent a decen sides pack and it showed at fax. Four better teams, squads and coaches in this lge kear, rhino, tubby and Powell all have it over our lad for me and that's not having ago its being a realist

No we didn't icon_lol.gif It's been mentioned on here for months that we wont fall into the same trap as last year where we burned our squad out and got scutched in the play offs with a team full of crocks .

Quote: tiswallace "That's bollox Mo , I'm no fan of the PR drive drive inside ball and PP kick tacticrs but Paul's the best young coach about at present ( If PR's looking in ) lets throw the ball about and worry about Batley next week .

Like everyone I have an opinion and most of the time my opinion is just mine ...... So I'm keeping PR because we can't afford or really want to get rid for the foreseeable future .'"


The best young coach is at Bradford then we have two at Huddersfield even barrow out coached us. I wish Paul well as I want a successful club but this has 2009 written all over it

I think you woke up in a bad mood.

Tell you what if we finish this season in a Relegation spot I will donate £50 to LISA assuming if we don't you do the same.

I agree with you to an extent Mo , our play is far to predictable and years out of date but who do we replace him with ? , because we can't afford to pay him off can we until BOB turns up ? . .

The BOD or whatever name they're going under shouldn't have given him a new contract until after our future is eventually sorted ..... which isn't going to be anytime soon .

The PSG or whoever without putting their own hand in their pocket have hog-tied us to a several thousand pound a year contract leaving us without any options to look at .

So , It looks like we're stuck with PR which isn't entirely a bad thing , I just wish he'd ditch this dire style we play and throw the sodding ball about a bit more .

Lol what?

We have our strongest squad that we have probably had at this level. I have never seen us have so much strength in depth. Losing Murrell would be a problem but if any team lost the best player in the league it would hurt them. We still have about 6 or 7 players who are either injured or simply cant get in the team that would get in most teams at this level, we have never had that before.

The PSG have absolutely nothing to do with hiring/firing people. The Board of Directors are the only people with that authority. The PSG 'help out' in a voluntary UNPAID capacity and may be asked for their opinion, but that's all - they have zero 'power'. Hope that has helped to clear up your understanding of who does what?

" Time is but a flowing stream". Pedro. Higherfold Cockey Pond. 1973. You can shout for silence, but boots worn all day will always hum.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_28343.gif



Does anyone really think that Paul and his team just coach the inside ball in training. Get real. It saddens me that people post the "PR inside ball" and " he only has one move". Watched Cas and Widnes the other day and it was used a damn site more that we use it by both teams. When those lads go out onto that field the plays are in their hands. Paul can shout as much as he likes but it won't get him anywhere. OK he can make changes but I personally don't know what sort of contracts the players have signed. Some may get payed play or not, so it would cost the club bundles to drop a player to bring in another. Fred once posted that when Basil was here he tried to instill in the lads a philosophy of not being too concerened about what the opposition were doing but to concentrate more on their own game. Well the games changed. I think that the same thing is being coached and it needs to alter quickly. This league is bigger, tougher and faster. This team is lazy in defence and in order to build a platform for our play makers we need to batter the opposition when they have the ball. Legaly that is. We need to be very concerened about what the opposition is doing and be totaly switched on to it. I wasn't there on sunday but I have seen this coming. There seems to me to be a don't worry we will be ok attitude, but it needs to alter now. I am not in the sack Paul Rowley league because I think he will come good for this club and like I have said before, I would hate for Paul to leave only to take on another club where he prospers, like he did in his playing days. I really think that if and when Coyle is back things will change. People should not wish for Paul to go but wish that we had a first class defence coach and a clicking half back pairing. I would like to see Paul be ruthless now in team selection and drop the non performers.
I don't know if news about a players new contract mid season is the best thing to do for team morale either. This can lead to a drop in heads if some think they may be out at the end of it.

Its all well and good saying stick with Rowley, Leigh Centurions is a business and its the same as any other business, if the boss isnt performing then the directors want to know why and then come up with plan so the boss does perform better, if that dosnt work then the boss has to leave.
Rowley is a nice person, but sentiment should not come into it when its a business.
