Given the number of people who don't bother voting and the fact that under eighteens can't vote I doubt the wisdom of using Polling Stations as a marketing tool.

How about using the slogan:

"politicians are all W*****s, go and watch some rugby instead!

Quote: Starbug "The club have the capacity to get the message out

They have available to them a large exhibition type trailer that could [ if asked and permission granted ] be placed in the town centre,Asda,retail park having special offers available where they can be taken up instantly , this combined with the 12 ft X 6 ft A frame advertising trailer that they also have free access to being towed round town , Asda , retail centre car park [ personnaly I'd suggest towed by one of those ' Boom ' trikes with Dave armitstead in a santa suit riding it ] would give them the neccessary profile

So why dont they do it ?'"


It's good idea Starbug, but maybe not the clubs. icon_wink.gif A few of our friends who used to support Leigh on a regular basis are starting to come back on a select basis. One of them commented at one game , "that you wouldn't have known a game was being played in Leigh." Not everyone lives on the internet and the way the team is playing deserves a higher profile.

Things are improving both on and off the field and maybe the club will start to listen to your ideas to get more people to attend the games.

Mines a pint... 'Hi-Ho Silver Lining' Headingley 05th October 2014.:1392.gif



We have Robbie Paul, one of the biggest "known faces" in our sport, well respected - get him on board with sorting out the Junior Centurions club , involve it as a family deal with a fantastic matchday experience for familys to meet up.
Imagine, 2 'Mums' meeting up for a natter / brew at the match whilst the kids meet there (injured) RL hero's who signs there recently purchased programme or there recently purchased Leigh top whilst 'Dads' have a pint in the bar (having got there early 'to make a day of it')- spend, spend , spend.

We have Ian Millward, one of the best "known faces" in our sport, 'man of the fan' - get him on board to attract the 14 - 25year olds in, get them in the bars, get them involved in club nights / race nights, get him into the amateur club circuit, well liked "tells it how its is", the man is a marketing gold mine, like Robbie.

Yet v Batley we had the RFL "arranged" offer (and it was a good one) of 25quid, how many people in Leigh knew - or worse how many people cared icon_confused.gif:

Leigh have to do better than now, the players and coaching staff are doing the best selling of the lot by playing attractive RL that gets results, a push in the off field stakes is long long overdue, starting with familys and the Children as a major priority.

get leigh outta wigan:7175.jpg



As I've posted before the club needs a minimum of 4 or 5 voulunteer's to help run the Kids club on matchdays, pm me if your interested.

As for them getting involved in the amateur club circuit that is what the launch of the Amateur club forum was all about at the Barrow game.
