| Saying he's only played 60 minutes of Rugby over here 'in this league' then please forgive me if I see a little more of him before saying 'the best in this league by a country mile'.
As for not paying enough money out maybe if the public of Leigh backed Arthur then we could sign such players |

Indeed. He's had a handful of games in the NRL, looked lively in the RL World Cup and played most of one fixture over here ... not quite player of the year material, yet.

No I think you will find it was the other board members who were 'stumping up more', the 'income' hasn't tallied with the money spent for a long long time. Its been said that we need over 2200 per game just to draw even this season and we aint getting anywhere near that.

| And to get quality players you have to play them quality money which we aint got becuse we can't attract a decent crowd because we aint got decent players, round and around and around we go chicken or egg you can't escape economics and if anyone is daft enough to think anyone can well its time to re-open Winwick, now thats a FACT (I can read one doesn't have to shout). |

| Well ive read my posts again and you know surprise surprise I didnt say that, unfortunately unlike some of the financial geniuses on here I do not have the answer, but to say get better players without any money in this money driven world is financial suicide and if being given the choice to having to watch an average team or not watching a team at all because they have gone 'bust' I know which I would pick, you or anyone else can make their own choice. Cloud cuckoo land or reality bites, make your choice |

| Quote: mr. chairman "but thats the problem , if the gate doesn't get up to 2600 the white night will have to put more money in to survive so he might as well buy some good players and hope that will increase the gate, rumour going round that he's out after this season , it is a rumour though and not fact'"
Even if does hang around, which I hope he does, as every game is running at a loss his funds are going to be reducing by the day.
Therefore future signings are likely to be even less well funded than they are at present, so it may be a downward spiral rather than a vicious circle I'm afraid ... unless of course you can get your crowds up?? |
