| Not getting involved in this Jonny the usual people throw insults around yet come up with no viable alternative.
And I still fail to see how ONE person can be classified as a TEAM?

I may have missed it but I haven't seen any insults!
ONE person you are quite correct is not a team and maybe that is the issue! the club need to do something to get more fans in simple as, if the ONE person cannot do it then the CLUB need to do something about it! Yes we all know money is tight but without spending some they cannot just expect people to turn up
You say posters do not come up with alternatives but from what I see they have in the past and then get shot down by someone because it is not viable for whatever reason! In any case the club should be the ones coming up with marketing ideas! all we can do is spread the word about how good we are and to come and watch!

That would be me, I didn't say it in a derogatory manner!
That is a good idea though
They could always look at buying e-mail addresses from a marketing company and send out advertising, shouldn't cost to much!

Try reading the thread 'what can WE do?'

Maybe instead of spending their time moaning and whinging, maybe come up with some ideas or get off your backsides and do something yourself.

Yep. If we had a few more like you and less who just cried about things we'd be in a much better place-we're lucky to have one of you!

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 |

This is a reference to the fans of the club , if we want a club , then we must sell the club to more people than currently come , the other option is we all pay double what we pay at the moment , maybe that will give some people an idea of the size of the problem

I have read it, and it is great what people are trying to do re spreading the word but if you read my posts again you will see I and a few others mentioned marketing from the club! They cannot expect to do nothing (i'm not saying they don't before anyone says anything) and people to turn up becuase some fans are trying!
FWIW I am talking to as many people as possible about how good Leigh are and to come down to watch them!

| Quote: woolie "For me looking from the outside at the club and having always looked forward to games played at Hilton Park and hating the LSV experience, the club needs to take control (say a long lease) of may be the east stand etc and give the supporters back that local club house feeling (that Hilton Park had) this might also get some alternative revenue streams going. Anyway looking forward to the Fev match, should be game of the season so far.'"
Don't build up your hopes too much - Leigh have a hard game on the Friday, while Featherstone have a rest. Two games in four days, against a team that hasn't played in eleven days may be too big an ask.

People's attitudes on here baffle me at times, firstly Linda does a great job well done
i agree, we havent done much since we had the players in the town centre on the rocking bull/rugby ball thing.
its not the clubs fault, its the lack of intrest within the community. Our crowds are actually good atm. After seeing Featherstones crowd against Barrow were looking ok. Think they got just over 1700
