Cheers Bullseye....a sensible reaction from an opposing fan. Was 'chuffed' when we signed Robbie Paul, BUT i am absolutely amazed we have managed to sign Fuifui. Saw him play for Tonga at the LSV in the world cup, he maybe 35, but the man is an absolute Beast !

He hasn't done it in the NRL for a couple of years but should rip it up in the championship a real coup for the club regardless of his age should keep terrykelly off our site for a while slagging us off about signing overseas players

Cheers Frankie, if your club had signed him. would you have been pleased ?

There was a rumour going round he'd signed for us I would have loved to have signed him a few years ago not so sure now but like I said it's still a real coup for the club and a statement of intent

@stillinthepast

There is only railings at one end now - the other end has been modernised with new/old stands

How can you modernise post office rd

Change a bulb in the floodlights

A brilliant signing that can help raise the clubs profile and ensure our fans can't wait for the start of the season.

I had Dylan today so i showed him LCTV and he is so excited at the thought of seeing and maybe meeting Fui Fui that he told my Dad we had got the best player in the world, next to JP of course

(oh to be 11 again

) and he wants an away shirt and wants me to see if i can get Fui Fui printed on the back of the shirt

Its official.We now have more props than Parsonage and Plonk Lone pits had.

Salford pulled out of running when Scott Taylor come on the market.

No if I was paying 150k a year or less id consider it a very shrewd deal!!

Really?

That's funny we signed Fui in August you signed the Pie reject in Nov?

Then I suggest you join the board and contribute, I'm sure Dereck would be happy to share

Salford pulled out of the running when Koukash discovered that FFMM had already been a Leigh player for two months.

WTF are you on about?? You really do go off track....

I'll put it simply ste, you seem far too happy to spend other peoples money

Just a quick summary Ste :-

Someone said he was on x I said that was a bargain for a world class player...

You said how much would I have spent and I reply with 150 a year is shrewd

You then tell me to get on the board and I spend other peoples money..


All this on a Leigh fans forum... You've completely lost me...

But whilst we are on about players do you still think big Sam's a thug and we could do without him to?

I still can't actually beleive he's coming, a fantastic huge name signing. Hopefully we'll get a few people coming to see him & the strenght and quality of our whole team & the atmosphere in the ground will convince them to keep coming back.

Reread Harolds post back on page 4 ,you suggest that over 100 K is a bargain because of him being an NRL player, or comparing it too a SL players salary

Myself and Harold suggest it could be a bargain IF it is exploited, maurice concurs as well, it is perhaps your lack of a ' caveat ' that we find strange, ie not looking at off field long term benifits

I'll say the same as I did the other week - let's leave it up to those in charge of the club to get worried about the cash and let's just enjoy the ride FFS.

As Sam hasnt played since it is unlikely he has altered my opinions of him, good player, but dump the playground bully crap

Its a discussion forum Matt

Well aware of that, but it gets a little tiresome to read about financial ins and outs that are based on hunches and hearsay, especially at what is realistically the finest few days we'll ever have in an off season!

OOOH, I USED to be a director for a few years.....but now I only attend the BIG games.
