Surely someone has a copy of the original contract offer that the council made to Easts. Just refer Back to the terms of that. I take it nobody at Easts was stupid enough to move without a watertight contract?

| Keith,
I am not a member of Leigh East but - like many on here no doubt - I am deeply concerned by the position in which the club now finds itself and the stress and anxiety which this matter is causing to many of us. I hope that it can be satisfactorily resolved - and fairly quickly.
Can I though ask a couple of questions as an "outsider"?
1. What has brought this matter to the fore now? Is the club in arrears with any rent (I'm not asking you to state the amount, if any, nor to disclose any confidential information), is the initial lease at an end or is it the result of the financial pressures now being felt by the Council?
2. Did the club ever get a valuation of the old Grasmere Street ground as I feel that any renegotiations now should take into account the full market value of that land housing / commercial development purposes not forgetting that Easts's parcel of land is a key one for the whole site given that access to the site must now come from the bypass and thus cross the land which East occupied?

| I doubt East would give up their own bar and any revenue streams at Grasmere Street without ensuring contractually they are afforded equal or additional revenue streams at LSV,
Surely?

| I don't read things very well after a few glasses of vin rouge but why do the LSV want to take over the stewardship of the bar if Leigh East are doing such a sterling job?

So that they can pocket the profits I presume

| Don't follow either easts or miners but east must survive for the sake of our young kids who play junior rugby.
Would gladly donate to a fighting fund or something of a similar nature if it would help buy time.

What terms were Easts verbally offered before they moved from grasmere st and what are the terms now actually on offer?

| Quote: mr. chairman "They can never ever show that east are irresponcible. But we can prove that they are not nice people . At one meeting a person from the Lsv verbally threatened a female colleague of mine from Leigh east , I was disgusted and told him to back off . What have east ever done wrong please someone tell me . We have all the evidence in files on files but they never listen . If we have to then they will go legal to prove they have not handled this fiasco very well at all . We might not win in court but some people will be exposed'"
I hope that there are minutes and recordings of these meetings kept because politicians and councillors have been known to bend the truth to there own agendas.

| I hardly went watching Leigh Genesis, but felt sorry about what happened to them....BUT can't believe this can happen to Leigh East. Was amazed by the Coventry City situation, in the city of Coventry !!!!
The LSV should do ANYTHING to help the local community....THIS STINKS.
I HATE all this, I really do miss Grasmere St/Hilton Park, it felt REAL.
Keith 'Mr Chairman' really hope this has the 'ending' that it should have.
How do Leigh Harriers go on ?
Bet they have 'issues' going on surely.
Guess whilst Blackburn Rovers are paying their reserves to play there, LSV are happy enough with that.

| You should all be emailing and phoning every news desk around here. Also see if a current affairs program can take up the story. If enough people do this then they will sit up take an interest into the story. This is not just a scandal it sounds illegal. Especially the way the councill took the Sport England money.

42910_1337432023.jpg [i:5a56um9q]Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.[/i:5a56um9q]

| Can I just ask how many kids use the facilities at East? Surely one of your best arguments is to point out this out, especially when the Government are always banging on about the merits of kids doing physical excercise and participating in organised sports.
Good luck to everyone involved.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

| An interesting statistic to establish would be the number of kids who have passed through the red and black shirt over the years, and to publically ask for their support
