3 main worries I have;

1) who keeps giving this information to the press?
2) if true, what fool drew up his full time contract?
3) what the hell is going on at the club?!

Did you seriously think news of such magnitude would pass without at least a leg pull???

BD or the club should have the decency to tell the fans what the hell is happening.Unless the matter is going to court for breach of contract

Would hope a confirm or deny comes out from the club very very quickly.

Absolutely ridiculous. Not that he's leaving (lets face it he's been trying to get out for 12 months)

What kind of amateur signs a sportsman on a contract that has a notice period?

If I was responsible for such idiocy i would retire with immediate effect

The problem with your club statements at the moment is they inevitably take the form of a Derek Beaumont rant with a sprinkling of personal stuff. As a result they loose all credibility.

So it was one of those classic 'Sky Sources' then ?

It's never dull supporting Leigh, is it

Cheers....I await further news or Derek's response...
Also, our Leigh Centurions lottery fella, told me earlier that we have 'got rid' of Rangi Chase ! He doesn't usually offer gossip, but I do believe that Rangi does have the flu, still.

At least our other 2 halves are fit and healthy...



Have we ever had a more disjointed start to a season?

It is just one problem after another



If he is walking out when he knows we have a huge injury crisis in the halves and all the backs are crocked then he will lose a lot of respect from me.

What sort of contract allows you to give 4weeks notice?

Pretty standard in the general workplace.

Unheard of in sport.

Unless of course you have an unenforceable, enforceable clause in your contract.

What an interesting shot from Sky. Paul Rowley, his dad and lots of our players sat watching at Salford.

Methinks we have major problems. That seemed to be a case of rubbing Derek's nose in it

Try watching Wakey mate, now that is hard work!

Did SKY say where Ryan is going to this time?
Its getting tiresome now and one wonders does any other player have such a constant media circus in RL on a three weekly basis?
If it turns out to be rubbish I would strongly suggest Ryan looks at his advisors as this seems to becoming from someone close as some as the people quoting it are not usually easily fooled and not known for just quoting random things.

I was told on Sunday that Chase is in bother with Leigh and that's why he's not playing, only one persons word so not taking it as gospel. I don't expect anybody on here to deny or confirm that as quite frankly at the moment nobody knows what's going on behind the scenes. Something is definitely a miss somewhere. You have to feel for you Leigh fans, when we were in dire straits in last few years, 2 administrations and a soap opera every day, it's never the fans fault

Has it ever happened in uk sport - can't recollect such a situation.

If this is not true there is some serious poop stirring going on

If it is true I find the situation mind blowing

Either road, onwards and upwards - lets stuff the Gulls and get on with it

I'll take this crisis over the ones we've had previously such as have we got a team to put out v Rochdale.
A player like Rangi will always attract rumours and stories.
The joys of social media as in the old days it was in the Tap room we and around 20 others heard gossip but nowadays it can be 1,000 read it on twitter so it must be true!

Definitely top of the range Forum fodder, can't wait for the truth about Ryan and others. Meanwhile Leigh 46-45 against Sheffield, attendance 7,327.

Wouldn't read anything into that- were at hudds for the hudds/Wigan game two weeks ago.

He's going Hudds, let's move on! Mistakes are being made here there and everywhere at the club

Chasing the dream and forgetting the lads who we have enjoyed watching this last few years..

heard about this over a week ago was hoping it had blown over you have to say Ryan must be really unhappy at something as the club aren't getting a ££ for his development over the last few years

Maybe so, but neither are Castleford. Suppose we'do save on his salary if he is quitting

Move on nothing to see here.

He won't be on much pal compared to Derek's chosen ones. Which is probably half the problem.
