A fool shows his annoyance at once, but a prudent man overlooks an insult”: |

| Quote: SRW1996 "Your missing my point I think,
IMO we cant allow ourselves to focus our attentions and resources on fans who don't wish to come and will always find a reason not to come and historically have always done so.
I'm not personally responsible for marketing or sales we have a designated team and a director who covers this area of the business now (and incidentally is working on some great initiatives for fans for 2014/15) but I personally feel we need to focus on growing the a NEW fan base via the community, families and most importantly schools and children while looking after our loyal and passionate core of fans who have helped hold the club together by attending regular through thick and thin.
This is not aimed at anyone in particular but the "not going because its 16/18 quid brigade" still wont go tonight because we have a so called "partnership with Wigan" so what will the excuse be when we scrap the partnership then and offer competitive costs over a full season???
Incidentally I post on here as a Fan and posted on here prior to any involvement other than being a sponsor so my views are my own and not the views of Leigh Centurions and the BOM.'"
Don't get me wrong I think the new set up sounds great[especially after trev bartons brainfart interviews were he alienated most fans with partnership] but there are lots and lots of fans who will come back me included when promotion and relegation is back in place[I know that's not the clubs fault it began] but with the increase on prices and the madness of a few years back were they got rid of the season ticket prices which were set at a sensible price for fans and now the partnership were trev reckoned we were all small minded idiots because we don't want to watch some of the best players in the borough playing for us just because they are from wigan,well after that point I thought sod it,looks like others did as well.
Tempt back the fans with set sunday games[Thursday are out of control] early bird season ticket prices and most importantly no partnership rip it up on the town hall square as a marketing gimmick if you want to get maximum publicity.
Looking forward to being tempted back next season

If he wants to shake hands and collect a ticket FOC from me tonight he's welcome to drop me a PM I suspect it will be a team full of leythers and leigh players so with cheaper tickets and now Wigan lads how about it fella????.
We want all fans in that stadium behind our boys new or old at the end of the day as a club.
my views are not the views of Leigh Centurions they are my own.'"
WOW, I have just read the last 5 Posts and from a outsiders point of view find it astonishing that a member of the board would first of all post on here and second of all Call long standing fans " Bitter and Twiste Fools " then within a few pages go and offer this bitter and twisted fool a FREE ticket. Sweet Jesus, is there a Moderater in the house ?. Please give this man a week long ban to reflect on his posts. What hapened to " the customer is always right " ?. There may only be a few posters on these sites but there are hundreds more who come on and view the posts without actually registering.
It isn't a positive, thats for sure.

No BUT you have to admit WYSIWIG only post to antagonise people and I can understand Andy's reply after all Andy is doing us all a favour keeping us informed and I can't see a problem with that and I don't know why anybody does . I would just like to see a positive post coming from him (W) for once as there are lots of positives at the moment but I dare say pigs will fly first .I don't mind people having their opinions but to constantly read his sniping at the club or those involved is now quite boring and I just wonder why he needs to do this as he can put his point across much better .

| Some people need an audience for their perceived annoyance and they like it even better when they get a response, when they draw a response from a board member it doesn't get any better. I read WYSIWYG for entertainment but take what he says with a pinch of salt.

Quite correct and your way is the best way IMO and 99% of the time I follow your code.
I let my passion get the better of me at times so I do apologise to any of our fans who may have been offended by my comments and once again just highlight these are my comments as a fan of the club on a MB and not the views of Leigh Centurions.
Cheers
Andy

| One minute your mob and the next minute your not make your mind up, i am struggling to get my head round your comments i find them very worrying, its not a very good example to promote new fans.
I was ready to make the two and a half hour journey today but im having second thoughts, with comments like that you will lose old supporters like myself and will not gain new ones.
Please get a grip and think about what your saying.

Exactly my point, there are hundreds of posters coming on here and reading a member of the board arguing and calling a fan a bitter and twisted fool.
I will repeat again, that certainly is not a positive for the club.
Good luck tonight though Leigh, I will be tuning in for what should be a great game and hopefully a good win for you Leythers.

Excuse me?
Can I just clarify this please, my personal opinions and reaction in relation to one plainly bitter and twisted (former supporter) person with not a single good word to say about the club or anything associated to it that the rest of us all love is threatening to stop you from going to watch the game tonight?
Right Ok, that's a new one in the book of reasons why I don't watch Leigh anymore I suppose.
Everyone who knows me personally and the new BOD members know what we are about and how much respect we have for the genuine fans of Leigh like yourself and 99% of others on here however if im worrying you I best stay off here going forward then
Cheers
Andy

Worried you obviously don't get up much then pal.
I for one am happy we have a BOD that want to communicate with the fans and while Andy will know himself he needs to not let his passion get the better of him and not to rise to some of the MB numpties he generally does a fantastic job of giving us fans an honest and accurate update on the clubs affairs and puts to bed some of the malicious gossip that takes place on here.
My name on here is concerned leyther this is because when I signed up I was concerned that tweedle dumb and tweedle dee (freer and Barton) were taking this club to the wall, Thanks to Andy Mazey and Co we have a club to support and if what I've heard from reliable sources is true had they not stepped in and indeed Derek B had not signed a cheque to bail out Freer and Co with the players we wouldn't be looking forward to a semi final tonight nor a bright future so please Andy try and not bite with these clowns on here and continue your great work and please thank all your fellow BOD members for giving the loyal and genuine leythers hope.
