I have season tickets for both United and Leigh, but will be choosing Leigh this weekend, if they inevitably do clash
P.s. i am aware that my season ticket won't count for the play offs

Stick to Sunday's, we had a family do on Saturday night, also a very popular night for family do 's, some people might even suggest more popular than Sunday's. Reality is there isn't a perfect day, but a predictable, consistent day does and always will help attendances in general.

It was a ticket only non-knockout playoff game, you're never going to be getting the same sort of attendances for that especially when the playoffs are so poorly attended anyway for all clubs & competitions, one of the many reason they're being scrapped next year in this format.

I'm not fussed about who's playing what other sport at the same time, the club can't be concerned about that; otherwise you move a game for Man Utd, then you start moving them for Liverpool, then Bolton Wanderers, then w!g@n Warriors, Then Warrington Wolves, then Salford Red Devils, then Sale Sharks, before you know it you've moved a game 4 times to a Tuesday afternoon to avoid the preliminary round of the Shanghai & District Tiddlywinks Championship delayed broadcast on Premier Sports. Just pick a day that's best for us, our club and our fans and stick to that, let others do what they want.

The reality is that yesterday was not a defining match for Leigh RLFC. A victory would not secure a Grand Final spot and a defeat would not end our season. Everyone had to pay, hardly any away support and the attendance was just under 2000 with another play off match in a fortnights time. Its hardly the end of the world is it.?

As for the over 50s dont like change well anyone who has read my posts will be aware I am a big advocate of playing games on Saturday evening. This slot is relatively untried apart from a fleeting slot occasionally where the attendances have been extremely encouraging.

If people are prepared to say Sunday gates are disappointing then equally they will have to admit that our attendances on Friday night games over the years have also been spectacular failures. Proven in the attendance figures

The truth of the matter is the Leigh public do not like Friday night rugby. It may work at Leeds but it certainly does not in Leigh.

So Saturday evenings aimed at Familes then.. Are they now our future?

When we play our semi I am sure the crowd will be a lot better no matter what day it is played.

I too think a lot thought yesterday was not an important game (not me of course ) but I think the Leigh and district public will want us to make our first Grand Final for 10 years.

This Leigh side is capable of playing some outstanding RL.
