This Beaumont cult of personality is almost Trump like. Everyone else can see he's almost like a snake oil salesman but a lot of poor folk in Leigh won't countenance any criticism whatsoever, no matter how far off the rails he goes, no matter what humiliations he brings on this proud club.
Laughter brings joy , and Derek brings investors , as I said we have just got a Company not from local area of Leigh , wanting to get involved , giving us a record 2 year deal , folk are clamouring to get involved with us , Derek is a very successful businessman because he is a clever bloke , a winner in life , his best mate is the Good Doctor , that would be a serious link up . Everything in the garden is rosy , we have had 4 World Cup matches held at the LSV , have been granted permission to run 2 Academy sides and a Ladies side , maybe the shirt isn’t of everyone’s taste myself I won’t buy one , but I will still be a season ticket holder .

Good grief. Believing without question all the Dear Leader's obviously BS claims is another sign of a personality cult. I think the Rugby League community needs to stage an intervention.

As for me , I’ve always been a Clown .

Think you’ve got some really exciting players there and a lot of strike and top quality finishers in the backs. Leutele is real class near the line. Looks like the best side you’ve had for awhile.

I don't understand the Leigh bashing that goes on. They got hammered for coming into SL at very short notice last time. This time they seem determined to make a fist of staying up and are generating some publicity in the process. Good luck to them I say.

I agree. Good luck to them. Beaumont has people talking about his club and with a smile on his face. Ultimately it comes down to what happens on the pitch but Leigh are putting themselves in a good position there, and with the stuff behind the scenes.

Thank you Gregg, for me last seasons team was the best I’ve ever seen , and I’ve watched Leigh since 1962,but next seasons team looks better , I hope we can gel. As for the new name , it doesn’t bother me what we are called , but I hate the new shirt , and won’t buy it , I do like the new polo shirt , and will buy a season ticket . A lot of folk misunderstand Derek , yeah he’s a bit in yer face and brash , but he’s a good guy , he does a lot for charity and underprivileged kids , he has just completed a Leigh to London cycle ride with 9 others for kids , I’ve met him many times , and though I’m not keen on his taste in clothes , I like him . Can’t wait to visit a few SL grounds next season .

Once you get past the bling and bravado it's hard to escape the conclusion that the game could do with 10 more Beaumont's. Hope he gets rewarded with some packed houses next year.
