One or two posts on this thread are causing me great distress.

Concentrate on our club ok.

Wrong way to look at IMO, Clubs Coaches and players would prefer continuity and a settled side with a steady player turn over, to get used to systems styles and each other, anyone can pick out isolated reasons why 1 year deals are ok but in reality they don’t particularly help improve side’s teams or clubs.

I agree to a certain extent and there's nothing to stop clubs extending contracts during the season, but a club would find itself in serious financial difficulty if it had a couple of lads on 2-3 year deals and they pick up a bad injury early on.

Totally different issue that Matt, that ones about a stable club and running it correctly, any stable club run correctly, would not be offering 1 year deals.

Doesn't look like you'll get Phil Vievers as your new coach, Matt Parish has quit at Salford.

I was told Veivers had not applied for the Leigh job.

We have as has been reported 3 applicants.

For the record one of the three isn't Malcolm Alker.

Thats what insurance is for. Most clubs pay off long term injured players with it

Thats not Leighs style Dico

we keep paying them their contracts ,as Mr Punch used to say "Thats the way to do it"

.

IMO to sit on the board you should guarantee a minimum investment each year, I believe that investment should be circa £25k and that we need £150k pa to top up income to meet ambition - I currently do not have the spare £25k so I would be a hypocrite to do as you suggest. I realise it will have gone over the head of a wannabe clerk but at least I tried

I meant not come and watch any of your games not the one when we play you

That's fine in SL , have you any ideas of the cost to insure a 25 player RL squads wages against injury ?

Sports injury insurance normally covers the cost of a set number of consultations , scans and operations

Once again your ignorance of the workings of RL below SL is glaringly obvious

That's fine when you have a que of potential investors , we don't , so sorry Neil but your opinion is rubbish in this situation

The board have set limits and parameters they have to stick with , that is how it will have to be done from now on , until we start to increase income , not charity

...and hopefully with debts paid by the end of the 2012 season we can kick on in 2013

Sorry Steve my post was relevant to the question posed and is my belief.

The club is attempting to do this via the 1 share for every £20k scheme for Touchdown and LISA, as I interpret it. The board/sharedholders are 2 people at present with TB helping out? both of whom have stated? that they will put no more in.(don't blame them btw)

The job is to increase income, currently that means ST's, Touchdown, Lottery, LISA, Gate, Sponsorship, RFL and anything I may have missed. It also means operate to strict budgets, but to have a number of individuals or groups covering shortfalls via £150k pa input would ensure a vibrant future and a better product.

Sport is a charity for most clubs btw. It depends on individuals generosity, but good business structures must sit behind the philanthropist who then tops up the shortfall - we have different views.

But we don't have a number of individuals or groups able to cover any shortfalls , so we cannot have any shortfalls , if that means the future isn't completely vibrant , then that's the way it is

We have different views and visions.

I think the Andy Bracek thread has been sent to the Twilight Zone
Has he signed or what ? the local papers think so !!!

Not signed, the paper probably got it of the official site before he gave back word.

No we don't , we don't have the people , or groups you suggest , they don't exist , no more ' White Knights '

We have different views and visions.

Your right , we do , mine are just a million times more realistic , and don't involve invisible people

He rejected our offer but we will see.

Bored with this. Just taken the old shower out and I feel like I have been in a sauna. Hows that for a derail.
Come On You Leeeeeeeeeeeeeigh.
