Cracking news this!! Lifts a bit of the doom n gloom.

Leigh are building well, they've got a player from a Super League side confirmed


More Good News out of the club, and plenty more to come i'm sure.

I accidentally deleted a post. Sorry:

Much as I rate Gleeson and would like him to remain at Fax, if he wants to leave or is asking for more money than the club can afford to pay he can go for me.

This may not be the case of course but we only want players who WANT to play for Fax and, as far as finances are concerned, it is vital that we continue to live within our means as, if we ever got into financial difficulties again, I fear that it would finish the club.

I'll repost it then

great news patterson great goal kicker this season.

roberts is a pinball he just bounces off people.

cant help but wonder about gleeson though, last week we were signing the playmakers up and he was the only one plus govin that hasnt signed a new deal, i cant help but wonder about his future at the club and whether he will sign a new deal or not.

If Gleeson want to get more money then we should not try and get him at any price-we have been there often before and no point risking the club over such players.
With regards to Govin I personally would not sign him as he is very injury prone and cant make a full season despite being very talented. At 6, 7 and 9 we need people who are fully fit most if not all the season. I would like us to give young Bowman a chance when possible-which we have not always done. Maybe somebody like Henry Paul for 1 or 2 years for him to learn off

do you know something we dont. I liked Henry better than Robbie, but I am not sure that he is available. Not sure what he is doing these days, since he went back to rugby yawnion.
