Nothing wrong with a bit of ambition, but thats a bit lofty, even if they were in SL. They used to struggle to attract crowds bigger than 6'000 even during their glory days of 1985-88.

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg



But they know how to do it now. Instead of giving away 3000 free tickets and adding all free tickets to the attendance regardless of them being used ................... a046.gif

kcab sfrawdder 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



Something I would have like to have heard from the Leigh club , he obviously knows it wont be easy , but understands the principle of getting people to sample something is the best way of getting them to then buy it

It's no use aiming to increase by a few hundred , all you will get is a few dozen , go for thousands , get hundreds , go for tens of thousands , get thousands

At least they're making their friendlies more affordable, £10 adults, £1 kids = £22 for a family of 4.
Whereas at Leigh £42, which is one reason I didn't go against Salford, it was too much at Xmas with all the usual seasonal expenditure.

I would have thought 10,000 was eminently achievable for 'Fax - after all, didn't they get almost 10,000 for their final home league game with Batley, to take their 2010 average, to 2,500 and a half? icon_wink.gif

If Leigh were in SL and making the top 4 regularly and getting to the semis of the CC and playoffs with a win or two. What crowds do people think we would get at the LSV?

It all depends on the attitude taken by the club ?

Just leaving things to their own devices , probably 8/9 K

Pushing as we should be , 10/11-full

Dread to think, how the lsv would cope with a few more thousand on the terraces ??
Does it mean they would actually open another food place on match days instead of the farce at half time at the salford game.
By the time your served, you find yourself asking other fans "who scored them last 6 tries please" icon_biggrin.gifOH:

if you don't dream you can't move forward for are all plans not based on dreams, it's about being realistic in those dreams.

Thing is Fred , he gives the game away by the comment " Hook or by crook " , given that he runs a Marketing company he will be looking at getting them in using both tried and tested methods and that horrible term ' thinking outside the box ' , all he will be interested in will be the numbers , wether they pay or not
