I’ve read the statement, which shows commitment for the future. Which is good. I’m not sure how ending back in Championship helps the club to become sustainable. It must be easier to sell sponsorship, corporate, hospitality in SL than Champ.

Also the two NRL players,what contracts are they on? As it stands Leigh have no squad for next season regardless of which league they are in.

Lot of names missing from that statement.

Atomic , I agree with a couple of things you say , ie Dereks commitment to the Club is good, and again we must build a team from scratch next season , but as the squad we’re all on 1 year contracts we knew this anyway , and I agree it is much easier to sell sponsorship in SL than the Championship, though I’m not convinced what division we will be in next season .

Nobody can predict what contracts the NRL players will be on , only Derek knows this , but I’m optimistic bythe statement about new appointments being made , no names could be revealed until it’s already cut and dried.

Myself I’m just happy Derek sees a future for us , and folk want to play for us , again it remains to be seen if Danny Richardson has signed , I’m a fan of his and think it would be a good signing , I’d try to build a team round him , Brierley , Mellor ,hopefully we will keep a couple of the present squad , and move forward .

Well said Ian, I do believe you're not a clown after all. :wink:

Derek , good to hear from you , I’m feeling better as well, I’m really hopeful for the Clubs future , I think we as a Club need Derek , and his commitment to the Club , it’s been a difficult season , but a hard year for many , you learn to adapt , as Leigh must .

We don’t know what has gone on behind the scenes causing the other people to leave , but should we be entitled to know .?

As long as the players keep pulling on the jersey ,hope to see ya soon.

Ian, you are right, and i'm glad you're feeling well again :thumb: . What goes on behind the scenes is their Business. It's been a difficult season but, we must keep positive for the future of the club. We as fans can take our own action in what we want, or believe for Leigh Centurions. Let's see what the rest of the season brings,and where we will be at the end of it. COYL

I admire the attitude and ambition of Derek but I feel that whatever we do for this season will be too little, too late. Can't help but feel that we'd be better served keeping hold of the money that Derek alludes to and put it towards building for next season.

You could be right Leyther , we are not privy to what Dereks plans are for next season , but it seems to me he is making plans for next season , which must be a plus .Yeah some folk are knocking him , that’s up to them , but I think he has the best intentions for our Club , I really think if he walked we wouldn’t be inthe same fortunate position , yeah somebody would take over , there will always be a Leigh Centurions , but maybe not with money to invest ,in players , it’s just a pity there aren’t the players around at the moment .Have faith .

We were never ready for SL , I said it when we were promoted . It was the worst possible way to get promoted , no foundations , no preparation just a decision to put a championship side into SL . I think it would have been far worse with fans allowed in . At this stage we are kicking dogs and fans would lose interest , go back to the championship and build up properly by being the best side that's won on merit . We took the SL money and its become a bit of a poison chalice.

Want to retract your rude and unnecessary post Mr Evo now the club statement clearly backs Mr Cairoli and his “perfect world”?
Well said Charlie. I will be right beside you with my glass half full, cheering on our team.
