Bearman Posted August 6, 2018 Author Share Posted August 6, 2018 Just quoting LE. Page10 article "Crarey wishes Bullock well as Cairns rejoins Barrow" last paragraph. Ron Banks Midlands Hurricanes and Barrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Ashton Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 That's really good news about David Cairns but the bit about Cresta going elsewhere strikes me as a bit of journalese. I can't see Cresta going anywhere .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMF Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I think it's great news about another local legend joining the project and I agree Michael, Cresta couldn't go anywhere else. He's Barrow through and through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Ashton Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 There are loads of rumours on Face Book about Paul going to Leigh as coach. Put there from a 'reliable source' The whole thing was scotched by Steve Neale. Rugby League press has been carrying rumours. All FAKE NEWS.

clogdance Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Why would he join us (Leigh) As it stands we have no owner for next season, and our only income will be season ticket sales. I can imagine other clubs might want Paul Crarey as their coach, but not us (at the moment anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the subtext is that Leigh are unloading anyone on existing contracts in order to bring in new guys on less money. With Cresta running a successful business in Dalton, IF he were to consider taking the reins at Leigh he wouldnt come cheap and that wouldnt fit in with the austerity regimen that Leigh HAVE to impose.

KP is 'out of contract' at the end of the season, and he said in the Leigh Journal that he is 'flattered' to be linked with them, nothing more. Wire already have Andrew Henderson, Lee Briers & Jon Clarke as assistant's, so unless one of them is leaving (it won't be Lee Briers) there is no story to tell. And like I have said previously, we currently have no owner for 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that Facebook posting was from one of our better wind-up merchants at Leigh! Fact is we have nobody in a position to offer anyone contracts for next season, until we get our current mess sorted out. Depending on how we sort it out, we will know which league we are in. (liquidation would mean League 1 for instance) Paul Crarey is an excellent coach, and I would be pleased to see him at Leigh, although I would be more than happy for Kieron Purtill to get the job - only two defeats in our final 17 Championship games, both against Toronto, speaks volumes for him. Ironically, since most of our 'superstars' have left, we have had two nigh-on faultless performances against Sheffield. I'm sure Paul wouldn't currently touch our job with a barge pole, and I can't see him leaving you in a hurry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
