Even worse is the need to 'defend Derek' but turning the abuse onto other clubs (in this case London) Once their game finishes today, I predict we'll see a few more You know, it's not mandatory for Leigh supporters to defend Beaumont in every instance. It's a perfectly reasonable position to support Leigh, support Derek Beaumont even, but still accept that there are times when he behaves in a way that actually brings his own club into disrepute. I think. Paul, with due diligence, you will find that I am not, nor ever have been an advocate of Derek Beaumont. My response was to The Daddy and his ( by his own admission in the past) willingness to jump on any anti-related Leigh thread whilst never engaging in any topics that relate to London Broncos, as I stated. Oh, and fwiw, I do agree that he can be, using your words, " a tool" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDINTHEHIZZOUSE Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Well yes, I base that on the clear vitriol you have towards Leigh via your posts. Although I applaud your posts when you champion expansion, i can't help but feel the small town of Leigh keeps you awake at night. Don't worry, you are not on your own, they give me sleepless nights too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably did believe that by doing Super League a favour that Leigh would be protected this season. Someone as smart as him will definitely have all that confirmed formally in writing.

Snowys Backside Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 He stated on Radio that it was 'good on' the players to ram his comments down his throat Relegation not clear cut. Court possibly if confirmed? Will play SL on Championship funds again. Confirmed that Brierley and Bell are leaving and a top NRL coach has changed his mind. Boy, tomorrow's SL meeting is going to be fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammerless Nail Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Oh come on people. This could be the only opportunity you'll ever get to say "Well, I really think Marwan could bring some much needed stability and professionalism to this club" and keep an almost straight face.

I mean its laughable is it not? can you imagine if he actually won? Every team in every sport would go to court to avoid relegation. If we were prepared to apply to super league then we should also be prepared for finishing bottom, which means relegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't publicly criticize the attitude and culture within your organization, you deal with that behind closed doors. All he is doing here is showcasing a toxic business from the top down. As someone has said previously, this is no way to attract new people to the organization, it is also no way to attract new partners, sponsors and new investments. One result does not change that.
