Salford won't be there that's for sure
Same bloke who a couple of days later cycled 600 miles to raise money for kids cancer and out of his own pocket, supplied 750 Micky Higham shirts to sell to raise money for his battle with cancer. Derek is a loud mouth but he is a successful guy who loves RL and has transformed Leigh RL club. I can put up with laryness for the good things he is doing for RL and charity.
One of the current leaders of what’s going on in the future of the English game

What is interesting listening to all the owners this week is the different personality types. They are all very successful in business and have made lots of money but in very different ways. The York owner is a business specialist and comes across very considered and professional, the wakey owner a hard working class family guy who sees the long term picture, Derek an entrepreneur whose all about risk and reward, Huddersfield been there and done it type of guy who wants to leave a legacy for the club his now parted wife loved so much. An interesting bunch for sure.

It’s bad enough Leigh got a super league spot they didn’t deserve

You'd be a fool to think Leigh dont deserve a spot in SL with all they have achieved since coming back up.

If super league was honest about the grading then Salford and huddersfield should get kicked out
