4 games in. Really Mr Greg.

It's only a laughing stock to all the nincompoops who keep on trolling on here.

Better being a Leyther than being Faxer, That's for sure.


You probably do not like it, I know I wouldnt, but your club is a laughing stock at the moment, even some of your more knowledgeable fans can see it.

No mate, It's definitely the nincompoops who just can't help themselves, who keep coming on here.

The club has made a statement,If you have read it,you'd understand the club has done nowt wrong.

BTW - Lose to London tomorrow and Leyth next week and I'm sure we'll see a lot less faxers hogging this board. :D

Re: Ryan... : Sat Mar 05, 2016 10:18 pm  
What's been bugging me & I am sure a few others is, why did DB & Jukesy not sit down with Ryan when the 2 offers came in from Hudd's Giants & say something like *look Ryan, be honest & open with us, do you want to sign for Giants, or another SL team* ??? *because if you do, we can help facilitate that move, because it let's us prepare for the future & at least the Club will get some compensation for letting you go*.

This is something like what I would have tried with Ryan, had I been his employer/boss.
Maybe this did happen, I just don't know, but it seems to me that the whole situation has been poorly managed &
in fact the whole season & several other issues appear to have been poorly managed also.

The fact that DB has a successful business does not necessarily mean that he possesses good man management or interpersonal skills, he might, but the question remains, why are so many important people jumping ship if all is rosey in the garden ?

In the same way that MarwanK CarCrash used to attract derision, DB is doing the same now at Leigh. MarwanK learned slowly to step back & employ suitable people to run the playing side & keep out of team affairs.
Yes as MD/Owner/CEO, have the final say on a potential signing if required, but concentrate on the business side.

Talking of the business side, how do our sponsors currently feel about the whole show & being linked to LCRLFC during a time of so much negative press.

The journo's at RL Express/Total RL must have cut holes in their pockets for quick & direct access to their fun sticks, as there is so much in the way of juicy material available to them.

Is there still a BOD or is it now just Derek piloting this ship alone ?

The whole sorry situation needs to be dealt with swiftly & professionally for everyone's sake, Owner, Directors, Sponsors, Staff & Fans, or we could see all the good that has been achieved *Circa 4,000 average gates or near to* eroded & those less hardened fans walking away.

I still believe in LCRLFC & the potential to be a 'Big Club' or established SL Club *should we ever get there*, but without clear direction & a respected Skipper we might just sink, or at least be cut adrift for the foreseeable future.

I sincerely hope not.

Simply because as I've already stated,Ryan's strings are being pulled by someone.I can see quite clearly who it is,why can't others.

Ive read Leigh's statement and Ive read Ryan's statement, one of them is lying. Given the lies that are been told to the fans over a number of players its pretty easy to work out which one it is. As Ste100 says though, DB has to try and protect his investment and he will do that any way he can. Some people fall lucky in business and hit a niche in the market and again like Ste100 says it doesn't always mean they are great businessmen. Compared to some businessmen I have had dealings with DB is far from class act and his people skills leave a lot to be desired and its starting to shine through in Leigh.

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!

Re: Ryan... : Sun Mar 06, 2016 8:04 am  
Don't you think Ryans statement is littered with "all the right words" including a mention of the RFL.

I have no idea what is going on but I do know that someone is being manipulated here

Re: Ryan... : Sun Mar 06, 2016 8:17 am  
At the end of the day it doesn't matter who's lieing,rowls and ryan have walked out of the club that they've made money from and Derek is still here putting his money into,let's have it right tho according to media reports ryans been leaving for 12 months so the media are getting these vibes from somewhere because any other player that says the're going nowhere it's the end of the story but with Ryan it keeps coming back,so he's not been happy for a while or he just likes the attention and being in the limelight
