einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result:



Quote: Canoeman "No offence taken, I've heard such comments before but the facts make a logical person beg to differ. Just look at the stats./math don't lie.
If you tally Rowleys record as a pro coach just look at the won/lost including his time at Leigh/Toronto and beforehand. The winning per centage number is very, very high. Could well be the highest of all active League coaches in the world! Bottom line is that its a pro sport and you are in it to win it. Hard to argue with his winning stat numbers.

Just to let you know, Paul Rowley is very highly thought of in Toronto. His standard of dress, deportment, and interactions with the fans is of the highest and most dignified order. Those are the facts, and, "NO, I am not Paul Rowleys brother....I totally deny it!"

"Run With The Pack!"'"

But all Rowleys coaching has come in the lower leagues with budgets that where far and away more than the other teams in the division and as soon as it was levelled in the middle 8s he failed miserably

Well we will find out if you are right this year now won't we? I'm picking them to go up, just like last year. I could be wrong but time will tell.

Irony is represented below. [quote="JEAN CAPDOUZE":162hm7sy]He is not telling the truth. He is talking paranoid rubbish.[/quote:162hm7sy]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_59837.jpg



Quote: Canoeman "I'm not a Troll at all...in fact your comments are actually both trolling in nature.
My statements on TWP are factual and you refuse to respond to them but rather revert to insults and taunts.
You have to understand the nature of the Toronto fan...we won't be bullied by thuggery. We will respond, comment for comment.

I've reviewed the threads and the anti TWP bias, it has even passed the borderline of hysteria.
Report yourselves for trolling if you wish but I will stand up for my Club from trolling insults and for our fantastic coach; who is a man of high integrity and doesn't deserve the classless treatment he has received from many on this forum.

Just so you know, Paul Rowley is highly thought of here in Toronto.'"

Is it not true that he once saved a young girls life from a waterfall/drowning incident and risked his own life to do that? Is that true or not true?

It is true and was indeed very brave. I'm not sure what it had to do with his integrity or coaching ability though. In fact, the longer this thread goes on, the more confused I become, over what it is all about, anyway! icon_wink.gif icon_stupid.gif

Its about a big thing, an important thing. I've read all of the threads and people seem to be calling his character into question, both on and off the field. many insults, both personal and professional, have been directed his way.

Some might not like him but his actions on that day, saving the young girl, gives us a direct snapshot and insight into his character....I think he is a standup type guy; I think he is being unfairly demonized.

Toronto is a new beginning for him and his family and he has met the challenge. I think its time for all the Leigh fans to let the Rowley era, both on and off the field, go. Do it not for him but rather yourselves; do it for your Club!

Cut the guy a break will ya!

A deaf and blind dog could have picked them to go up last year this year will be a lot harder but as I've said before if you go up you deserve to the chances are I'll be getting to see you v my club in the middle 8s

Whatever as gone on or off the field the Wolfpack have been the better side over the two games we have played them. Let’s just get on with the upcoming games and let’s not dwell on it bring on Leeds tomorrow night I’m really looking forward to it

It's 2 nil to Toronto.

Leigh just need to concentrate on finishing 4th.

We will beat them in the M8 as will at least 4 other sides!

I would take a challenge cup final over top 4 at this moment in Time as I honestly see us losing again and missing out we have the best team in the division in my opinion but the bad start to the season is what as finished us off. Can’t afford lose to every team that got promoted from the lower division and expect top four

If we're good enough to get to the CC final,we should be good enough for a top 4.

Well as good as a challenge cup final would be, top 4 to me seems essential as the goal must be SL - if not this season then we need to keep the core of the season for next, it is now showing what it's capable of, not making top 4 would kill us financially

I reckon we may get away with 2 more losses and squeeze in, but capable of winning all champ games from here in

It’s a very strong Leeds squad on paper, how strong that is on the park we’ll find out. The CC could be this squads destiny..

First game was in 1967, and have been hooked since day 1. Now live in Vancouver, Canada but follow our team any way I can. “Up The Comics !”:17580.jpg



Quote: Peter Kay "Why is it? .. It's a genuine question as its true'"

Peter,
You have a point in all of this, despite yourself.
I’m going to go to Toronto to take in the game. Should I get the chance I will shake the hand of all ex Leythers, PR included. Ya know why.
Because it’s water under the bridge, and perpetuating the perceived issues serves nobody. Sport is sport, not life an death. Life is too short. I support Leigh, my dad supported Leigh. Many others do the same for Leigh or their chosen team.
BUT
Bottom line I support my team and respect anyone who supports their team.........
Who do you support ?
If it’s Leigh then quit creating threads designed to disrupt and if you have concerns post constructively.
