Michael Norris has said if you contact him he will talk to you about some of the information you require in a one on one fashion - the club cannot do any fairer than that.
Demon is right when he says quite a lot was discussed on the interviews on Leigh TV so some of the info you want might be in those various interviews but you may need to join Leigh TV (£3.50) to see those interviews, pretty sure the local press will carry some of what was said though so might get it from the Reporter / Journal websites.

| At least I get you all talking and maybe thinking. It's not the same boring - I'll see you at the poker night - or wasn't that Wigginer good for us, I wish we had him - or I'm going to The Goose cos it 20p a pint cheaper.

| Quote ="WYSIWYG"I only asked a simple question because someone had quoted 1.8 million pounds investment over 3 years and said that we would be the richest club outside of Super League. I've been informed since that this is a wrong figure, but some fans may only read that message and think that is what is being invested. '"
Someone jumped to a massively wrong conclusion, for which he has apologized. Unfortunately it has become quite a damaging mistake. Anybody really thinking about it for a second would have realized $1.8M was never going to be the right number. In addition, the error was corrected by about 6 people later down the thread and the information is readily available on the official site.
If you want to know why you get peoples backs up - simply look at the tone of your posts and the attitude of entitlement and arrogance that they convey.

I have always said the rubbish I put on this Forum is just as good as the rubbish everyone else puts on here ,most is just my opinion , but I DONT ram it down folks throats about Wigan 100%, i DO happen to LOVE Wigan folk , my wifes a Wiganer so what ?As for Hatred i don't hate anybody ,i LOVE LEIGH CENTURIONS with a passion , im over the moon about the Investment being made by the Current BOM , and applaud each and every one of em ,i just wish i had the cash to do the same , i haven't , but i will give my time to trying to raise as much money as i possibly can for the Club , and will always do so ,im so happy we have people that still care about the Club , rather than have some Half-Baked Hatred for things .

| In recent clinical studies, Wobbly Bob’s was found to be the only known antidote to excessive Viagra use. In a recent survey 9 out of 10 women agreed that their lives had been transformed thanks to Wobbly Bob’s. Here are just a few of their comments:
Mabel Murgatroyd, 32 yrs, mother of 12, commented:
My Dick used to be as hard as nails, but now he’s just a soft little pussy cat, thanks to Wobbly Bob’s.
Mercedes Chardonnay Texas Shufflebottom, 24 yrs, commented:
My Roger couldn’t stand at any bar without being used as a hat stand or being mistaken for a one arm bandit. Thanks to Wobbly Bob’s me and Roger can now visit all of the trendy wine bars throughout Abram and Golborne. I have no hesitation in recommending Wobbly Bob’s to any aspiring WAG.
You won’t get bitter with Wobbly Bob’s!!!

| Quote ="mr. chairman"They very nearly got it right , and I don't know all the reasons but sadly it didn't last'"
IMO They got it wrong big time with their first two managerial head coach positions.
Given Paul Terzis's true holistic approach to the club (appointed by SCLs predeccessors) their first coaching appointment was a disaster.
A head coach needs to do much more than just train and pick the team these days. Wether it's dealing with the BOD, Commercial sponsors, ever increasing media requirements or engaging supporter, Terzis fully embraced that ideology. All a stark contrast from Abram which IMO caused division within the club at all sections.
The second appointment was also a big blunder for differing reasons as the club had invested heavily in a quality full time squad in 2006 but overlooked the necessity for a recognised experienced coach to take control of players in a FT environment. His services rightly had to be dispensed with but the damage had been done just as the draw bridge was being pulled up by the RFL.
These were of course not the only reasons but they were major contributory factors. All IMHO.

| Yes we did, but
Turks was a beaten man after the 4 th Salford defeat, they targeted us as the team to stop and it worked
Darren! , well what can I say? , it was what it was, I personally was willing to back him providing the actual ' plan ' was to accept relegation but to bounce straight back ,he had other idea's
Tony was a good prospect given the candidates that applied,
Hindsight eh? ,

| Hindsight indeed Steve. It's great isn't it?
I still maintain that Turk was sacked 3 years to early IMO. No one could have done a superior job than him against SL standard FT squads in 2002 and 2003 and he ensured we were easily the closest challengers to both. The irony is that those obstacles were fully removed in 2004 as all clubs in the league were PT:
Turk would have thrived in the FT environments of 2005 and 2006 and who knows what he could have gone on to achieve with us.
Anyway its all irrelevant now.
