Quote: Bartholemew Smythe "It also highlights how many clowns would pay (debatable) to watch a towns reserves who are 30+ miles and no historical links to or town.
So if a person chooses to go and watch their football teams reserves play in their own town, that makes them a clown does it?

I am struggling to understand that reasoning myself .

I would have gone but I play football myself on a monday neet, but I would have loved to watch Man u reserves at LSV and I am certainly lacking in big oversized shoes and a funny nose icon_wink.gif

Second rate soccer played by people who don't want to play, watched by people who got in for free and don't particularly want to watch.

I'd rather have a tooth out than go and watch that.

Why would the reserves not want to play, thats nonsense!!

Not everyone was in for free there must have been lots of paying speccies who must have wanted to watch the game!!

don't understand the abundance of sour grapes in this thread to be honest, or the relevance to Leigh Rugby League Club.

You really need to read the full thread before you make comments like that, you have only embarrassed yourself now.
2,400 were paid for tickets from the Ticket office, with 3 cash turnstiles opened too help handle people wishing to PAY to watch.

How does that constitute free, when it was only Kids tickets that were given away for free, and more paid than what got in for free...?

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



My daughter and lad went last night with freebies they had picked up from somewere,they were home early said it was boring and blackburn were winning 2-1 so I don't know what time utd equalised.

Football is god to the masses,so I suppose the chance to watch it brings in the crowds

Can we learn who know 100 years of shooting ourselves in the foot doesn't help

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg



Quote: mr. chairman "how mant do they get for a normal game and what was there average gate last season . what would the crowd have been if it was £16 to watch'"

I`d hazard a guess about............... 10 at those prices.

LIVING THE DREAM ALL THE WAY TO THE SUPER LEAGUE PLAY-OFFS! ''All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them'':Black Backgrounds/Miss%20Piggy.gif



Having attended last night I would be amazed if 2400 people paid. A gate of 3600 in attendance with at least 50% being kids who all had free tickets leaves at best 1800 paying which I doubt but airing on caution that gives 1800 multiplied by £4 £7200 in gate receipts. If you wish our club to do such an exercise expect to be playing Championship 1.

I was in the stand behind the goals and it was chaos Id best describe it as being in one of those brewers fayres places, kids running riot, most of them not wanting to watch the game and many parents totally disinterested.

It might look good the original gate figure but I fully support the club in their stance on not giving away our product!

Well its either the entertainment that is not catching the imagination, or/and the cost is too much.
Rather have 3600 or whatever inside against half that, as long as not losing money on it.
