Quote: j.c "You should ring one or two sl clubs and ask them what else did they do other than swtich to fridays to increase gates.if they target a certain ordiance then perhaps they can help.'"


The bigger the profile of the club , the more important Corporate and sponsors become , they like Friday nights , and differentiates them from Football , where the real money goes , proportionatley we rely a lot more on the paying fan

Also it tends to be a 'chicken and egg ' scenario , which comes first , the corporate and sponsor , or the number of fans ?

I have yet to see any stadium with corporate but no fans , but lots with fans but no corporate

Quote: Alan "It appears that some fans are really organised, in that they have their Sundays/Fridays planned for months in advance.
Well I for one wouldn't be seen dead at the LSV on Saturday nights! That's a ridiculous suggestion. If that happend I would cancel my LISA membership, cancel my touchdown direct debit and never ever buy a shirt again! The lottery subscription would be cancelled as well. In fact, every time I drive home from work I would purposely avoid driving down the bypass so that I never saw the LSV again. I would make it my lifes mission to hunt down the people who made that descision and kidnap their childrens pet rabbit until they reversed their ridiculous descision a026.gif

My bloods boiling at the suggestion! I have been going to watch Leigh man and boy. Changing to Saturdays like that makes me so angry I could crush a grape!

So there you have it,the clubs likes the corperate mob more than the fans,trev tell them to jangle there jewellery against the glass so the players realise they are still watching.


As for the oh look moving to friday will bring in hundreds of more fans than sundays,please tell me how????

The clubs crowds have grown over the last 2 seasons and we looked to be building a solid base but now we play thursday friday sunday how on earth we attract a crowd when we are moved from pillar to post every other week is beyond me?


Good luck with this one leigh,expect to see trev in the journal midway through the season saying does the town want a team



Perhaps the biggest blessing would be for the 3 wise monkeys to make a total mess of this season and sadly the club dies and the fans can set up a new club free from clowns and debt,even if it means starting again in the lower division,remember the lsv will sell itself to any sod who wants to play there roll on 2013 and hopefully a new club with fan power running it


Then again according to some we will be pulling in 3k crowds with us moaners out the way on a friday

Quote: Starbug "It will certainly mean I will have to re think a few idea's for Marketing matches
Open the South Stand for 12-16yr olds only, open it at 6 and have Wii competitions, bush tucker trials, X factor comps, disco, in the concourse area prior to the game, £2 entrance, sell pop and crisp cheap.

Mum and Dad may just buy a ticket for the other end to ensure they get home ok.

Quote: Jimmy85 "I don't know how simple it is or isn't. I don't and never have worked in marketing, but from where I'm sat the targeting of primary schools 5 miles away doesn't work, when we do have ticket giveaways etc we struggle to fill the Family Stand even a quarter. For me the best marketing idea would be to use the fans we do have, give incentives to people to bring extra people to matches with them, advertising games in places that attract a lot of traffic, ie the exits of supermarkets, pubs and clubs, Use the Leigh Reporter and Journal a lot more, sign the club up with a local charity and have players make appearances, handing over of cheques etc, even targeting the houses that are literally a stones throw away from the stadium, that are going to be living there for the next 20 years.

In my opinion those ideas would be more beneficial than throwing free tickets at Primary School kids.'"


All those are good idea's that should be tried , all of them have been recently suggested and hopefully all , or at least most will be tried , but you still have the problem of getting ' them ' , whoever ' them ' may be in the stadium to start with , the second problem is then , when you get ' them ' in , making the stadium a place ' they ' want to return to

Part of that is having large numbers of people in the stadium to start with

How often have we had a ' family stand ' ? , and where is it ?

There isn't one magic formula that will solve our problems , it is a strategy , a plan with many many things all done over and over again that will improve things

Its obvious we need to increase both and for me this is the place to start plus if the new regime and there policies fail we can always go back to sunday and accept our place in the food chain.Only next time the rfl give a leg up to bristol or coventry there'll be little point in moaning about it will there because we've got a support base with no ambition have we.
