Andrewj Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 As a Leigh fan I can only see this as a positive appointment for Leigh (even with the Wigan link) . He has had a dodgy couple of seasons at the Pie Palace but comes with vast experience..hopefully it comes off !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was Lam as he finished up with Wigan last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Browny Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Sounds like Lam has found his station in life. 1 1 I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

WN83 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Not sure I've seen a coach as out of his depth as he was with us this season. He hasn't improved a single player in his 3 years with us and the standard of rugby has been simply appalling. To sum up-I'd probably look elsewhere if I were Leigh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he did take an average team to the top of the league & within a whisker of a Grand Final win the year before. He did however lose the plot in the second half of last season but what little quality Wigan had he lost a lot of it,I’m not sure many coaches would have had success with Leneghan’s & Radlinski’s inept recruitment/retention policy.

Damien Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 It would be a really strange appointment by Leigh based on his couple of years at Wigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father Ted Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Difference between Marshall and Lam is that Richard was very successful at Halifax as Head Coach. He knows the division and what is required. Lam's only stint as club Head Coach was at Wigan where he was an unmitigated disaster. Between the two of them there's only one sensible appointment to make and it isn't Lam! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, I was going to say were Fax/Fax fans not somewhat underwhelmed? I mean not Lam-levels of underwhelmment but still not great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
