-------------------------- IRN-BRU - THE NEW TASTE OF RUGBY LEAGUE !!:10619.jpg



I'm not talking Tommy Martyn here either,

And anyway if we were going to down the road of a young, up & coming coach,one had just proven outstanding promise and shown great credentials by taking a relative unknown squad of players in France to within 80 mins of The 2005 Challenge Cup Final.

He then delivered SL status the following year IIRC icon_wink.gif

kcab sfrawdder 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

Mr Morgan

We spoke to him in 2005 when they played in the cup at Blackpool along with Tommy Gallagher , but a deal had already been done earlier in the year

Second comings arent always great.'"


Ah VM, but he's familiar with the NRL! This seasons' shambles is a cunning plan, to get the RFL to grant Leigh 'development' status, in 2010, so that we too can have ten top grade NRL players, three NZ internationals, four Fijians, 6 Papua New Guineans........(and one 'token' Welshman) icon_wink.gif

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg

I hope you are feeling better but I honestly can,t see how any director past or present can stay put just in the hope they,d get their money back.

You can,t invest in any Championship club and expect a return on your money. Seems to me if you put in a few bob it,s because you care but what do I know ?

No director can serioursly expect their money back. 2009 is now a completely different set of circumstances than 2003 especially with P&R now abolished. Quite simply 1 share today is not worth a fraction of the £7.5k paid back then.

Darren Abram icon_confused.gif: lets see now wasn't he the coach who finally took us to Super League and then paid the price because all the good players had been signed up to other clubs.the poor guy never stood a chance.I for one will always be grateful to him for giving us our Season in the sun.
