Can't fault that.

[Harry Stottle 4,114]

What a disappointment to some, when I have come onto this thread it had 42 views but only one comment, the dissapointment I refer to was it was probably expected to be controversial and it would have had numerous posts, but because it wasn't that no comment except that of Gooleboy, nice one.

Fantastic effort.

Good effort by all involved.

Some people are quick to knock but slow to commend, they only see what goes on Twitter DB is the first one to get behind a good cause.

I’ve said this before, I don’t know Mr Beaumont, and am never likely to, but he seems to do some very good things in his community and definitely has his communities interests at the forefront of his actions, including Leigh RL. As a sport we complain about not being able to attract enough wealthy investors, yet when we do get a few we usually find a reason to criticize them. What a strange bunch we are!

That's a fantastic gesture from Leigh. Can't understand from some on here the problem people have with Derek Beaumont his hearts in the right place.

I agree. Would love Beaumont to take over at Broncos once Hughesy calls it a day

Well done to Leigh and all the best to all the organisations involved.

Virtue signalling, look at the giant check, Derek’s desperate to come across as a generous mr nice guy, I’m not buying it.

Being cynical about the genorosity of others, being suspicious of actions that will help people ...... mmmmm.

Fantastic, well done to everyone involved!

What a shame it's necessary and needed so badly!

Hands off he's ours BB, local guy made good and he loves the club and community as you can see from this effort, I don't think he could transfer his loyalties elsewhere if his time to relinquish his position happens, hopefully it never does. 

But saying that if it goes back to a closed shop, and the goal, desire and ambition to get to SL is no more I wouldn't blame him if he walked away,  men of his ilk who have that in-built drive need targets to strive for, if it taken away and the challenge is gone whats the point.

[Jinking Jimmy 65]

Well done to all concerned.

[Robin Evans 4,432]

I don't particularly like delbert as I've commented on a now locked thread. 

BUT.... I will never knock the charitable contributions people make. Contributions so necessary particularly at this time.

Fair play.

That's rugby league expansion thinking right there.

Take two clubs and make them one.

I can certainly see why you want to hang onto him Harry.

You know what I think's the best thing he could do, for Leigh?
