He has a regular spot in the program so would have thought he ain't that miffed with the club?

If Mike would be willing I'd be more than happy for him to come on board within the comms team in a press liaison roll.

Im really not sure what the big deal is or why the leigh club are getting stick. Do people not realize how difficult it is to keep signings under wraps nowadays?

Its not like back in say 1991 where a quite young GFB found out about Fax signing a certain GB prop, who would go on to be a Fax legend, by the local rag coming through the door at 5pm and been like OMFG. Given the internet gossip does tend to get out quite a bit quicker nowadays and a lot of it is usually on the mark if you look in the right places.

But gossip is all it is, as long as the club sticks with " No Comment "

Which club was it who signed a player who appeared in all their pre season photo shoots then went and signed for somebody else and no it wasn;t us

The Halifax conduct in the Micky Higham saga was laughable.

When 'signing' Micky from Leigh they did not value him very highly at all and offered Leigh no more than £2,000.

A couple of weeks later they were suddenly chasing St.Helens for over £100,000 in compensation

I think we did the same for Donlan and Rowley though earlier. Got a cracking deal there both went on to be fantastic players for Fax and Rolo the best hooker I have seen play for us.

PS Dont think AH was the player in question though.

Thought it was Baldwin and Rowley

I think you might be right but there was a story behind the Donlan signing as well wasnt there? Think it might have been Donlan we offered 2K for.

It was Baldwin and Rowley in 1994(?) when the club was on it's backside and no doubt will have taken any possible bid. Donlan signed at the end of the 2000 season.

Fax may have sold Barlow to Leigh because fax didn;t wan thim to come to fev full time. But Barlow has signed nothing.

Before the loan to fev he told Rowley he would be interested in signing for Leigh but heard nothing else until he announced it on Sunday.

As long as Barlow hasn't signed anything then any deal between Fax and Leigh is worthless

Im sure someone from Leigh on here can confirm that the contract had Sam`s signature on it.

By all accounts the Leigh deal was done and dusted before Fax decided to release him on loan to Fev. Fev never had an option on signing him.

Dont be too easily taken in by someone who has been a house too often.
