Stroke of genius by Derek. Most fans are talking about his comments rather than singling out individual players. Fergie used to do this all the time when United went through bad spells, Brian Clough the same.

Do you feel DB is in the same box as fergie and clough?

Agree.

"It isn't your fault lads just do your best I will sort it."

Typical. Is there anything else you don't like about Leigh?

And BTW - That was a try by pelly.

Tonga hasnt played many games for us fullstop

Well i thought it was a try,Maria had actually been dragged behind the line when pelly scooted through.

The difference is,you always look for the negatives and post them. How about posting,It's good to see Pato or Maria back? Or ,we have not been able to have a regular and it's good they've manged to bring in Fleming short term whilst we get bodies back or new blood coming in? No, you don't appreciate the club working hard in trying put things right.

Where have i stated that?

And FWIW - The quality and consistency of the officiating on Monday was appalling.

Are you 100% sure? The Sky guys said it was a try inc. ex-referee Cummings and he knows his onions. Would the try have been awarded if it was... Cas, Leeds, Wigan?

Is crayoning your favourite subject at school cokoa

Obstruction? Don't you have to move to cause an obstruction? It was the most blatant try you are likely to see, if you want obstructions watch the Hull FCv Leigh again. Hull scored 2 with obstructions.

We could all be positive, like you, and say we'll be top 8 before the season started; and criticise anyone with a more realistic outlook. That would definitely have improved us, wouldn't it!

Nice colours

As soon as Pelissier bumped into Maria it was obstruction, he should have gone round him. Maria being dragged away was irrelevant the offence had already occurred.

I appreciate most things the 'club' do, I don't feel the need to keep saying so on here, I don't look for negatives but I hate excuses and will say so.

The "where have I stated that" comes from me agreeing with another poster that DB's rant was wrong, you criticised me for being negative therefore you have a positive view of DB's rant as do most on here.

The quality and consistency wasn't good, but having a second look suggests it wasn't appalling. Some of the rants against the decisions come from fans who haven't got a clue about the laws of the game, I don't include the learned gentlemen on here in this group.

Not having the same opinion as Cummings & Co doesn't make me wrong.
