Travel the world

I'd hardly call East Manchester Travelling the World



I can see why people, including the RL Press, are quick to equate LRLC to Toronto, after all it is an unprecedented scenario that a new Club has ten or more current players who represented Leigh! Their Coach and his Assistant have also played for our Club and, they probably have more Leigh Heritage players than Leigh

Goodness knows where their next recruits are coming from? one things for sure, it wont be Canada!

Rugby League has been around since 1895 and we have not been able to expand it outside our three main Counties of Lancs,Yorks and Cumbria! It has of course been played in Australia,New Zealand and France for almost as long however, each country has an 'Heartland' that they have found hard to expand from!

Are we now to believe that Canada is the missing Jewel that has been discovered by our former Coach? If so PR will become revered like other famous Pioneers / Explorers Scott, Hilary, Colombus and of course Nanook of the North !! To think PR once represented our Club

Statue anyone?

Non .. they was all deemed surplas to requirements

Of course he didn't

Who then ?

Beswick and Kay.

You could ask beswick himself , but he was paid a nice sum to keep schtum on things

who cares ?

Obviously they do or they wouldnt keep harping on about toronto or rowley

Do you have evidence that these two were approached illegally?

I don't think he played again that season(Please correct me if i'm wrong),although him & Beswick spent time on stall duty in the market,and neither of them made an appearance for Leigh again. Make of it what you will. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCRmeIX6Kzk

Nothing illegal there, the video was done on the 22nd July.

Are you saying he was paid to fake an achilles injury? Good riddens to em all accept the ones who where professional enough to see their jobs through.



Anyhow, regarding the OP post, I haven't seen any official complaints along with no statements or apologizes apart from hearsay,again. So good riddens to PR also.



Lets move on.
