The one thing Leigh fans need to understand is that any negative comments about Lam aren’t because he’s gone to Leigh. I’m as happy for Lam as I am stunned that he’s got the job and I genuinely hope it works out for him. An absolute legend of a player but his three years as coach have been torture at times.

As pointed out it shouldn’t matter at Leigh. We couldn’t score more than a try a game most weeks under Lammy but Leigh will have a squad better than anything they’ll be facing and even Lammy should be able to get them winning and scoring points.

It’ll be 2023 when they’ll be able to judge him I’d imagine, if as expected they’re in superleague.

I’m taking nothing for granted , Fev will be favourites to get promoted , and we have yet to announce around 6 players already signed , ido think Lam will be a good appointment .

One thing I’m not is Anti Wigan , a lot of Leythers are but not me, 90% of my family are Wiganers ,one has even Coached Rugby , and it was him who told me he didn’t rate Peet .

I take it your relative is Wayne Bennet or Craig Bellamy then? If not, multi CC and GF title-winning coach and current England coach, Shaun Wane, does rate him.

Didn’t think you were but by the same token, Wigan fans pointing out Lams faults isn’t anti Leigh bias. His three years here were just a horror show from an entertainment point of view and the Jack of development across the whole squad was alarming.

We’ll see how Peet goes, I’m not sure how it’ll pan out and I doubt many are but I can’t see us being much worse.

typical pie fans showing ignorance of championship rl just as they have had heads in the sand about demise of there club which is skint and reduced to recruiting 2nd class Aussies and former sacked coaches to try and bluff the diminishing fan base
all true leythers wish them nothing but the worst for the new season

Don't hold back, let it all out, you'll feel better for it

Merry Christmas to you too mate.

Whatever Shaun Wanes opinions are he is entitled to them , how anyone can rate a bloke who only has amateur Coaching status is puzzling , as for my relative he isn’t who you stated , but well known in Wigan for his Coaching abilities.

I regard myself as a true Leyther , and wish ALL Wiganers well , in fact I would trust my life to the Wiganers I know , for me they are great people .Merry Christmas to everyone on this Forum .

I understand that mate but the fact that everyone is entitled to their opinion equally applies to your relative. It carries no more weight than IL's or Rads' who appointed him, the many people who've come out in support of him (including your head coach, Adrian Lam) and certainly not more than Shaun Wane's who I'm guessing has achieved far more in this game than your relative.

None of us knows how it will turn out but putting your relative across as somehow more "in the know" is a bit disingenuous.

And to you mate*

*Being genuine this time

At least he didn't have a turnstile to jump over

There is no need to sit on the fence. Are you angry because Swinton have gone down and you will miss your big derby this year?

Yeah i am a bit ignorant of championship RL, but that is only because my team has never finished low enough to qualify for it.

Oh..... i am going to Leigh next week. Thinking of going on the train so i don't get my alloys swiped. Which station should i go to, Wallgate or North Western?
