WHICH will result in the smallest crowd at the LSV, since Leigh Genesis played there. Well done to all concerned !!!

unfortunatly that is what i thought

When the sardines have removed their brains and the seagulls have feasted, then the boat will come into the harbour

They're asking people £18 to spend a minimum of 4 1/2 hours standing in freezing conditions to watch two semi-pro teams blast amateur opponents.

Or for those not tempted by tantalising prospect of Swinton v [iWhoeveritis[/i, they're asking £18 to watch Leigh take on an amateur side in the early CC stages.

Honestly can't see what angle they're trying to sell this one on.

Swinton v Toulouse will be a better game than ours i suspect. Still won't be paying £18 though.

This.

Were there an option to pay a tenner or so to watch the Leigh game then I'd certainly consider it, but it's unfair to try and get my 5 year old to sit in the cold for so long in an effort to justify £18 plus whatever it costs for him.

No it won't

Not sure it's about selling, it's more about minimising the losses

we shall see, guess Swinton + Leigh fans, might make the crowd just under a 1000. You know what I'm saying though ColD, bad idea !!!
£10 to watch Leyth v East Leeds, I'll be there...£18 NOT A CHANCE !

I will be there,a few scoops before the games (and during), two games of rugby league brilliant.

Dos anyone know if the turnstiles will be open through out the fixture as I only want to go in around 5pm to watch us?

Its little wonder i cant be bothered with this board, when even the mods dont know who is playing
So Toulouse are Amateurs then??

The pricing policy is an absolute joke. Come on lets be honest?

Last year it was £16 per adult ticket to watch the Super League and World champions in a Challenge Cup QF and last 8 knock out Challenge Cup tie. Ryan Hall, Rob Burrow , Danny Maguire and Kevin Sinfield et al, A place in the last four at stake?

This year they want an increase in that admission price to watch a Leigh v an Amateur team first round tie? Who on earth is calling the shots at Leigh RLFC these days?

Do they think the Leigh public is a wash with money?

Who wants to watch Swinton? Congratulations to the Leigh BOD for pricing me out of the match.

I agree it's a bit steep at £18 and unfair to expect leigh fans come to watch our game.
I think the problem lies in the fact that gate monies are shared with both games so in effect after costs both Swinton and Leigh will get only a quarter share each, therefore I suspect the thinking is to try and maximise the money they can generate with the bulk of support coming firstly from Leigh and then Swinton.
I assume it is on the Saturday so we can accomodate the French.?
Either way I think a single game ticket should be made available for fans wanting to watch just their own team. I sympathise with anyone who has little kids, trying to keep them entertained for nearly 4 hours especially if the cold weather is still with us.
