The Watcher is wondering if Beaumonts latest idea, generous though it is, has been thought through properly. The Watcher hopes that all the regulars, who pay on the day, get a ticket for the Batley game. There could be a few frustrated speccies out there if all the tickets are gone before they have had a chance to get to the club. Perhaps just 2 tickets each would of been better. The Watcher also hopes if all the tickets are taken, there are no empty seats on show.

The Watcher doesn't have a very good grasp of the English language though

Sometimes you just have to believe in the best in the good people of Leigh.

A bit sad you think like that really.

You can be sure that some people getting four tickets won't use them all

I'd say it has been thought through properly , just that the response will have shocked , I doubt even Dereck would have expected the scene's we've seen today outside the ticket office

Hopefully he will be pleasantly surprised

Ban them for life

That is very true Col,my wife was there this afternoon and a guy in front of her asked for 4 tickets they gave them to him , then his young daughter who was around 10 years old asked for 4 and she was given 4 as well,the mind boggles.

The Mo thinks the demand has been greater than anticipated but all who want a ticket will end up with one. I am sure some will try to make money from this but I would advocate a snatch squad to size these if they are being touted, and is a sign of the low life that exists in society like the ones who steal flowers off graves etc. 5 days before the game you will never get it right but that is irrelevant when compared to the generosity of the offer, and remember all fans who bought in advance will get a ticket as will all ST holders

The Watcher is under the impression that this game is free to season ticket holders anyway, is that correct?

Not free no , already paid for upon purchasing said ST

But irrelevant

The Watcher is a season ticket holder & he bought his ST before the season started, at that time he didn't know if Leigh would qualify for the middle eights. The deal therefore was if we got into the middle eights The Watcher would get 2 free games, which would be selected by the club.

If we didn't make the middle 8s you would have had games in the Championship 8 s

So what is your point ?

The Watcher is incorrect as the season ticket included 3 home games from the 8s competition with the 4th if we got 4 a paid for game pro rata at ST prices.

Stop bl00dy moaning....you only seem to post NEGATIVE comments on here, do us all a favour and start following Wiggin Wariors !

Thank you Leigh centurions.
