| Apparently watching Leigh isn't value for money compared to watching W1g4n,Saints,Warrington and Salford
So who is going watching them instead ?

| I don't think anyone on here will be jumping ship to watch a SL club instead, but I think the cost aspect does affect our prospects of attracting new supporters.

| Maybe they will do a few offers during the season to entice a few more fans in.

Glad you understand the point. No question all the normal Leythers will be back in 2012 but enticing new fans will be a real challenge at those price points.

Dear God and to think you were a director? We are not talking about Leigh fans, new fans to get to your magical 'Cas' target.
And to think you labelled me and idiot. Your thread is laughable, immature and pathetic

Matt, it's cheaper than last season though if you buy before Thursday for a Sunday game, or do you mean getting people to buy season tickets?

I mean in terms of adult season tickets Ian although hopefully the match tickets will also incorporate attractive family tickets for those with kids etc - at 8 quid a game, I don't see where the next generation of fans will come from, regardless of the excellent season ticket prices.

| I doubt anyone on here would but if we dont ever get back in SL attracting new or currently stay away support is unlikely.
I can't grasp whether the RFL cant see they're killing the game below SL or if they seriously DO NOT care. Most people who dont watch the game religously like us can't understand why there is no promotion and therefore dont see the point in going and who can blame them.
Leigh (like everyone else) can only price the games to cover associated costs and hope to make a little profit based on numbers through the gates. It seems we cant get beyond that 2,500 on a regular basis for whatever reason and no matter what we do so offering discounts and losing even further revenue has now become a fruitless exercise.

Depends on how you look at it - now would be the time that we would be looking for those who came to the odd game as a new fan last season and enjoyed it to commit to a season ticket, but the price may be offputting, or they may think it's a bargain in comparison to other persuits. There's no definitive angle on this kind of issue as far as I'm concerned.

Yes there is Matt , the angle is that the club need to guarantee a set amount of income , it cannot fall short of the required amount
You cannot please all the people all the time , but you can give them as many options as possible , that is what the club have done
Anybody who might buy a season ticket will fully understand why they are priced at what they are , but there are enough other options to suit everybody , or not it would seem
