If anything I believe the club is almost being too transparent and the time must be getting nearer whereby some pretty tough decisions need making.
That said we are lacking strategic direction which needs addressing as of now. Only recently have we introduced a new director who is charged with the marketing function at the club - Fetch Bob being the 1st thing he introduced which we all support. To then alienate every Bob with a non Leyther driven plan suggests lack of thought and planning - I hope he wasn't also involved in this.

| Its all very worrying,we seem to lurching from one daft idea to another.
First was forget getting people in with season tickets which every club in every sport does by offering deals.
Next was move from sundays even though everyone voted for it.
And the best of all make it cheaper for every tom dick and harriot to get in unless you actually support and watch leigh,it beggers belief!!!!!!
Someone posted they know of 12 who have not taken up season tickets because of the lack of a deal and the move to fridays,out of our mob 7 have not taken up a season ticket,plus I know of another 4 at work and 6 from the local pub,now these people aren't part time fans but home and away fans, thats the type of people the club are driving away with dafter and dafter offers and days of playing.
Perfect example,having a pint friday afternoon in comes a few mates who go to matches first words out of there mouths"you will never guess what them ***** have done now,its only cheaper now if your a pie fan to watch leigh than any of us going,they can get ****** if they think I'm paying more than a pie!"
And that is the can of worms they have opened with local fans
Trev if you read this forum get your act together and lets bring back the fans who are drifting farther and farther away.
Start now by offering a season ticket(adult) with a reduced rate for the remaining games if bought before easter also include a child one free with it, with every adult one bought and move back to bloooooody sundays.

Even 'Fetch BOB' may be argued not to have worked though - given the Barrow attendance, and even more worryingly the Hunslet one. Both these games were before the season ticket initiative.
As for whether John supported the s/t deal, I don't know - you'll have to ask him.

Maybe but at least "Bob" is a step in the right direction.
If he isn't involved in the other initiative then why?? Who is making the decisions?

| What can we do to help out as loyal fans? That's the question.
Pulling in different directions does not help.
I am not a fan of this latest initiative although there should be something league wide to encourage more home fans to go away from home.

Couldn't agree more - the problem is the club is seemingly wanting us to bring Bob one minute and then charge him more than season ticket holders at any other club. Can anybody explain how to send more of a mixed message than this??

Personally, I agree that 'BOB' is a step in the right direction.
I didn't say that the director in question WASN'T involved in the s/t initiative, I actually said I DIDN'T KNOW whether he was. However, I'm sure he would tell you, if you asked him.

Thanks for your honesty & attempt to answer.
Let us all hope whoever is the "brains" behind this insane plan is big enough to hold their hand up & pull it - re-focus on Leythers and come up with a plan to get the floating fans their against York instead of watching the Wire v Saints game on Sky.
I fear below 1500 for us that night.

=#FF0000:2zoao58zIt's not easy to go ahead and put plans into action without someone discussing them in the first place, is it?:2zoao58z
Decisions should be made by those tasked with making them as and when they add value.
=#BF0000:2zoao58zDo you see the Fans' Forums as a useful way of communicating with the fans?
Not in their current format. You see the same people - communicate via local media.
We nearly went tits up last year so I would like them to focus on our survival eg Latest P&L against budgets, action plan to recover any shortfalls, club news and initiatives AOB related to making the club self sufficient by improving income. Every 3 months is sufficient.
