Its not easy for everyone to get to fev to pick a ticket up during the week if you dont live in the town, especially if your working and even more so when you know you can just pay in on the day'"
That makes sense - what am I saying a sensible post from gingdong - whatever next

the take up for discounted tickets has always been poor at Leigh'"
There is a majority of fans who are happy to pay the full price, £2 is less than the price of a pint but a few hundred £2s is a significant cost to the club(s). This game in particular could have stood on it's merits without discount.

Hope you're right about 4000 + that would be great
Couldn’t Fev sell the remaining tickets either on the coaches or wherever they are departing from, to ease some congestion at the ticket office?
Cash turnstyles? but not like at Rochdale where they did cash and tickets at the same one, took ages to get in.

They are aware that they will need to queue up for tickets before they go to the turnstyle as we don't have cash turnstyles? Not the quickest process so be prepared to wait.

Agreed. Leigh v Featherstone blockbuster for a stake in the last 8 of the Challenge cup. Everyone who attends would have done so regardless of a small discount or not.
" I will come if it's £14, but I am not stretching to £16" does not make sense.
I am not knocking the club or Featherstone for that matter, they are trying to please everyone.
I suppose the advantage is that people who purchase early tickets will not be put off at the last min (weather, football, plumbing emergencies or car breakdowns etc) and if so we have already banked the cash

9000 empty seats every weekend and no cash turnstyles.
Now I could moan about that .... Again

Those fans who were happy to pay full price can now buy a program to make up the difference!

| I will + my usual £5 syndicate of half time draw tickets. Plus I always buy an adult ticket when I am entitled to a concession. What else do I have to spend my pension on ?

| I believe like the old saying about kids, Directors should be seen and mot heard, but Derek did himself and the club proud the other night,well done.
It really does look like we have a good set of Directors at present and they do actually have a plan with actions in place for most outcomes,which is reassuring to know.
It is ironic though that all of us who hated the SL set up of no relegation or promotion would possibly of seen our team benefit this year,as we must of had a great chance of winning the promotion place as we ticked most if not all the boxes.Saying that I prefer the new set up and look forward to a great season this year and more to follow.
