| The Watcher has noted that the queue at the ticket office at 2 minutes to KO is getting bigger each home game.

| Quote: jesus-is-coming "A few near me last night were disappointed with the attendance,but lets look at it in the cold light of day,as the season as gone on and the team as made leaps and bounds the attendances are climbing 200+ a game,not massive gains but sustainable gains.
Historically games played in the lower league we pull 2200 to 3k depending on who and which point in the season we play,now baring in mind how awful we have been since our illfated trip into super league land this 2200 figure from last night marks a continual growth and belief in the team.
Now with a little push on a marketing front could we nudge the 3k for the sheffield game? if new fans are to be attracted especially families is it not time to launch a family ticket for the rest of the season? take last night I know the club was running a family ticket inconjunction with the co operative I think, but was the offer pulled before the day of the night as the offer vanished?
If joe public said to his family, come on it easter I'm off work lets go watch leigh as a one off the cost would be £48 for entry alone for 2 adults and 2 kids,don't even go near the cost of a drink and burger
Yes it is , but how much better would it have been with 6/7/8 hundred opposition fans in the other end to ' bounce ' off ?

| Quote: leyther "i think when we play widnes on sky it would be a good idea to let a season ticket holder bring a friend in for free to get the crowd bigger'"
I disagree there.
The people who will get in for free will fall into 2 camps - those who come normally and pay on the gate, and those who would only come if its free.
If the latter will only come when its Widnes and free then they're of no use anyway and the efforts spent on getting kids/families in instead, whilst the former could lose the club up to £10k in gate receipts.
Hammering our cashflow against Widnes is financial suicide especially when we've next to no income for 2 months during summer.

| Quote: The Leyther "I like that idea, another possibility in a similar vein would be the 'half season ticket' further on in the season.
It was a very pleasant surprise the attendance last night and lets hope we can build on it and get more through the gate for our next game.'"
And it might also give people a nudge about getting priority for cup finals and the like
A "pro rata" season ticket or "try before you buy" and the like would also work very well, I reckon.

| We need a home stand , seemingly adopted the North stand as our own , especially when fans voted for the standing area when the stadium was designed . Definately for bigger games bringing more fans there should be segregation . More often than not we end up with a small amount of away fans in the North stand , most are ok but u always get the odd one or 2 that are idiots , suppose u could say the same for some of our fans .
Am sure we have had this discussion before and with the allocated season tickets for different stands our own fans are bound to be spread out , does work well when our fans in the seats join in with the singing aswell though.

| We should give away nowt for nowt, it undermines the product
Like the idea of a rest of season ticket, like the idea of a gameday family ticket, relaunch the U11 season ticket and put a voucher in for a tenner ticket to the Widnes game for an adult.
400 family tickets for the East stand v Widnes at £15, must be with a minimum of 2 kids. Sell them in blocks through junior schools, the 4 schools who sell most get a 'centurions day' when players coaches turn up, take PE, etc

| Thought 2256 for the Batley game was very good. People are beginning to sit up and take notice again now we are playing well and high up the league. Have to admit last night was my first game for a while after a bout of illness. Thoroughly enjoyed it apart from the worst cup of tea I've ever had at half time. QT is not tea!!!

This really can only happen if reserved seating was in forced, then the stewards would always be in the wrong!!
Reserved seating actually Lowers the stadium capacity.

I don't think a reduction in capacity is an issue at this moment.
At the Blackburn v Burnley reserves game at LSV, there was segregation in place, North of West Blackburn, South of West Burnley but unreserved seating, I've said before why can't we allocate the South of West section to away fans, sitting them together should improve the atmosphere, as daft as it sounds its the away fans which bring out the best in the home.

| Difference is that if you hadn't segregated the fans at Blackburn v scum then we wouldn't have had a stadium the floowing morning.

| Evening kickoffs at home even on sundays has got to be a goer. Don't think the opposition would have it though.

I know why it was done but that doesn't matter, its the fact that it can/could be done at LSV without the restriction of having to have reserved seating.
