Gene Miles always played left centre or loose forward and Dean Bell played at right centre, or loose forward when they were in the same team.

One video alone isn't conclusive. Were both as fatigued, where both at the same fitness levels, etc, etc? You're welcome to your opinion but I'll stick with mine. I'm not saying Preston was faster but he was certainly "in the same league".
its more conclusive than an opinion though
What would be your definition of "the same league" be? My contention is that Preston was probably the fastest player Wigan have ever had apart from Offiah. If your opinion is different would you care to mention a few names? I mean, there must be quite a few as fast if not faster than Preston if he wasn't in the same league as Offiah, surely?

Rubbish. Preston was lightning fast. The fact that you can't name a single player who was as quick apart from Offiah would appear to bear that out. Anyway, last word to you, I'm through.

No they were not. As I have posted, Henley-Smith ran 10.4 for 100m. Offiah was nowhere near that. End of discussion.

with boots and a ball? Offiah did 10.8 over 100 not too far away from him considering offiah was a rugby player and the other was a sprinter

Nearly half a second is a lot.

Offiah was NOT the fastest player to play for Wigan. That is a fact.
