No I don't take it personally and I understand where you're coming from, but what I don't understand is why The Prophet thinks it's either 'them or us'? Why could we all not sit around the same table, does he think he's too good for us? And why, hasn't he offered his services to help the club in their hour of need?

My my, we do have feelings of self importance don't we?

You're saying you won't help the club because you've not been asked? Get over yourself man.

That sounds ' personal ' to me

No you moron it isn't about me and how I could be the saviour and you haven't got a clue what I may or may not already contribute so don't try and second guess.

If you honestly believe the PSG can take the club forward to be a self sufficient profitable entity with sponsors falling over themselves and potential investors ready to jump on board then I actually think your profile picture must be recent such is your naivety.

Careful, you are only allowed to receive insults not give them.

Why do these 'debate' threads always end up in personal abuse?

I can hear the Mods getting their padlocks ready as we speak......

Pity - as the O/P does raise valid questions - it's just some people seem unable or unwilling to debate without becoming vitriolic in their argument!!

Ooh touchy.

So if you're already doing your bit what have you got against the PSG doing their bit? I think you have the totally wrong impression of what the PSG do, but seeing as I've already posted what they do and you haven't bothered to read it, it's not my fault if you've got hold of the wrong end of the stick.

No one has ever suggested that the PSG is the saviour of the club but as a group, we each do our own bit to help out just like the NSFG do - why do you have such a big problem with that?

I tire of trying to point out that the rationale behind projects like the radio station, is to get the name/brand of Leigh Centurions 'out there' beyond the confines of LSV, with the aim of generating extra revenue from sponsorship and advertising.

That implies we have a 'plan' to generate more income, from sources other tha our current Fantastically generous sponsors. Indeed, if you study the CV's of our most recent additions to the Board, you will see that they are both highly successful business people and have a wealth of major clients in their portfolios.

As for the two poor maligned accountants, I feel their role is being totally misunderstood. (Sorry Steve, this isn't all aimed at you - it's just convenient to post it all in one go) They are actively involved in looking at our current cost and income bases, with the objective of ensuring our budget is realistic and we don't over-spend on it. (we daren't do that!) More importantly, they are looking at the governance within the club - something that has been severely lacking in previous years - to ensure we comply with legal, financial and RFL guidelines. They are not actively involved in raising funds.

And, to end on a personal note, I would argue that the programme does make a contribution to the finances - it made around £10000 [sizePROFIT [/sizelast season, and is in line to do likewise this season. We can't afford to ignore anything that makes a reasonable profit, even if the work is being done by amateurs.

Its great everyone fighting over who does more!
WHere would the club be without, Trevor , the current board, LISA, the LOTTERY, TOUCHDOWN CLUB, PSG and all the other volunteers like DON etc who all help, and contribute to keeping the club going.
Anyone who has any sense can see all this silly bickering is getting the club no where.
I don't for one think that a ST is the answer neither,unless we are giving up on our dream of SL , as there are no ST's in SL as its not allowed.

So all these groups can meet and have their own little meetings whenever, but isn't it time we all sat down together and pulled together.

Any fan whether he pays his one pound a week to the lottery or the one who is a touchdown Gold member, or even the one that in the lottery, LISA and supports the club everyway he can, they are all important as eact other, this is IMHO of course!!!!!!!

Well said Lynda.

Sounds like a woman after a place on the board to me
