| Quote: Dick Jones "How much do Hibs or Bolton charge?'"
Bolton is £285 for a season ticket so £15 per game. Hibs is £400 although Edinburgh is like London in terms of price inflation (£3+ a pint even in local pubs etc).

Is that comparing the early bird price 2010 with 2011 price. Ie what figures have you used for comparison.

| So our prices aren't are not very high, in fact they are the going rate, and considering we are paying back debts from last season this year, next year they may be able to do a better offer.

| I don’t think we can compare us to football, whether its correct or not buying a season ticket in football feels good value (if you’re into it), because of the total number of games available to you, even if you miss one or two, you still feel it was worth while. With us we play so few games and because it’s over summer you tend to miss more due to Holidays, family days out etc, without more of a personal financial incentive then the attraction doesn’t appear as great.

| Quote: Jimmy85 "The club have made a decision, the best one they could make under the circumstances they were in. IMO after seeing some of the posts on here, it could be a blessing in disguise for the club, a case of out with the old and in with the new, I cant actually believe some of the posts on here because the games have been changed to a different day, they haven't been moved to another stadium 160 miles away, or had HUGE increase in prices, WE ARE JUST PLAYING ON A FRIDAY. I cant undertand why people that can attend the games on a Friday are saying they won't be going. Theres a huge market of people that dont/ can't go to Sunday games, just hope the club will do something to bring them in. Im also pretty sure that the crowd average will rise again this year.
I'll be joining the Touchdown Club as soon as I possibly can, and hope others are too.
Get that Friday Feeling, 'I'm so excited' - Crunchie'"
I'm with you all the way on this Jimmy.
If people need to work then iv'e got total sympathy with you but if your just whinging because its a change of day then for gods sake get a grip.
Not be long before we're saying TFI friday.

| Quote: Tipster Ste "Agree about the additional sponsorship mate, but for the entire basic corporate day we make less than the price of a matchday ticket'"
So if the corporate package costs £40 the club only gets about £12?.

| Quote: Alan "At this morning’s meeting of the PSG, Trevor Barton was asked about the decision to play four home matches (York on 30/3; Featherstone on 22/6; Dewsbury on 13/7; and Halifax on 17/icon_cool.gif on Friday evenings. Here are the facts surrounding that decision, by the Club.
At the time of the Fans’ Forum, the statement about playing home fixtures on a Sunday, was made in good faith, based on the known circumstances, at that time. There was no intention of misleading supporters, let alone ‘lying’ to them, as has been suggested.
- As you know, we will be ground-sharing with Swinton Lions, next season.
- There is a six week ‘time window’ when the pitch is being re-laid, as part of a stadium contractual agreement and, it will not be available to either Leigh or Swinton.
- As a result of the pitch being unavailable, the RFL was unable to devise a fixture solution, whereby Leigh and Swinton home games did not clash. Leigh were offered, at short notice, the opportunity to select their preferred day to play. Friday was chosen, for the following reasons but it is hoped that this will just be for a ‘one-off’ season.'"
Dissapointed to read that Alan,i was hoping the club would really push Fridays,long term.

| Feeling of deja vu here. Same thing happened at Crusaders this time last year when everybody was up in arms about the change to Friday nights. For all the reasons given above it was never going to increase crowd numbers - but those who still wanted to support the team would somehow find a way to make it to some, if not all, the Friday matches.
At the time I hated the idea of travelling over an hour across North Wales after work for a Friday night match. As the season went on it became a great end to the week to have rugby on a Friday night and for that reason I will be leaving work early on a Friday to travel twice the distance I did last year to continue to support Leigh while still getting Sunday rugby at the Racecourse. So I'm happy

7 Championship and 1 Friendly for certain so far.
Not sure about the cup as depends if we are home or away (and I suspect the other club needs to agree to it being Friday) , equally If we progress in the NRC I'm not sure what day we will play (if we are at home on not on TV).
Works out as all our group NRC games (2 out of 2) are on Sundays.
In the league 2 out of 9 Championship games are on Sundays (bit unlucky as well as they are 2 Sundays on the bounce).

| Quote: Starbug "It will certainly mean I will have to re think a few idea's for Marketing matches
Looks like the new target audience will be the 100's if not, 1000's of 12-40 year olds that choose to stay in and watch a Super league match with a few beers, irrelevant of the two teams playing.
I think its a whole lot easier to get people into town to watch the match on a Friday night after work with their mates, than it is to drag them out of bed on a Sunday morning to meet up with their mates after a heavy night on the ale the night before.
