I'd like to make it clear that I don't like Leigh. I never have done. However, it cannot be denied that Beaumont has re-energised the club and the direction of travel is positive. For that he deserves some credit. I am not sure why some fans of opposition clubs get wound-up by some titbits he gave to the media.

Just while you're here, how do you like them massive floodlights at the AJ Bell stadium?

What are you on about?

14/15 pages is more than we have ever had before, I would deem that a success.

Halifax, Batley, Bradford whoever I don't particularly care who we start off playing next year the fact is if we perform well enough we are back playing SL clubs again in August 2016.

Good luck everybody See you all then.

All I posted were facts......it's you that lives in the realms of fantasy.

Gotta love Leigh and their feeder club Salford fans giving it the big "I am" for the last 24 months and yet pretty much exactly where they were 24 months ago.

All of which helpfully serves to illustrate the point I made earlier.

Nobody is being played, the bar isn't being raised and no matter how much water Derek has, he can't take legal action against the operational rules of a competition he signed up to take part in.

Aside from that, good luck for next year.

If an operational rules is illegal. Whether you signed up for it or not it cannot be enforced.

The bigger question about the SC is how much the rfl is willing to go into bat to protect a rule that doesn't actually effect or benefit them. This is a possibility illegal rule the RFL administer but don't actually get anything out of.

I would bet, like the quota, we never actually get to the courts and as soon as the lawyers get involved there will be an 'accomodation' made.

In what way is the salary cap illegal?

Its not. Any player can earn themselves up to anything they want in theory. However in practise it would mean that no other player playing for the same club can be paid. The RFL aren't restricting trade or what someone can earn, they are telling clubs how much they can spend on players.
