If Leigh are out-bidding us I'd be worried! Surely they can't be willing to pay more than us, and surely they can't actually afford it....

think bibey has had a good season and played well for us. he is still living over that way. leigh may have offered him a good deal. they have just signed paul and look to be making some other good signings, new stadium, may have a bit more money to spread about, good luck to him.

Seems like there is money around at some championship clubs as they jockey for position in the race for franchises. Leigh at the moment don't stand a chance of finishing in the top two in the near future unless they spend a little, so it maybe more a case of him being worth more to them than he is to us. I'd also guess Bibey would be one of the top earners at Leigh where as I'd assume he's a middle/lower for us. All that said, I'm suprised we aren't matching it so guess it must be more about will to pay rather than ability.

What is the cap in NL1 anyway? As every Rooney, etc the likes of Barrow sign must take a significant chunk of it and risk upsetting the applecart with steady squad players.

third man in

I don't rate him and never have although he has improved in his time.

However I have not played the game so MOTWYW

He's no world-beater, but then again no one else in the squad is either. What he is is honest, hard working and tough. If this is true I will be dissapointed, he's getting better all the time and I think there's some improvement still in him.

If he's leaving, I will wish him all the best and thank him for never shirking and always doing his best - something a few other members of the squad could learn from.

If it's true, I am somewhat disappointed. Goes down when tackled, i.e. not driven back the ten he has just made. I think he gives us what it says on the tin.
If he is to be replaced by someone with more to offer, then fair enough.
If he has been offered better conditions, and it is his call, then fair enough.
But for me he has given us more than he has not.

If he stays, I will be happy with that.
If he goes, I wish him all the best.

nah mate some must have a restricted view , of course kear is pants and knows nothing whereas we all know how poor the props are

thats poetry! or the first verse and chorus of a maria carey ballad!

pure quality!

stand by your man!!!!!!!!
try it!
sorry pilchard was bored

He is going to be higher in the peaking order at Leigh. Bibey is ok and he will do a job but he's not a game breaker.

how many players in any team are? your props need to lay a platform not be game breakers in the main

I was kinda being kind to him.

Ricky puts the hard work in - a great fella with a massive work ethic on the field.

I'll miss him
