| I think everyone is disappointed because everything about the LSV is top quality with no expense spared. They then put up a piece of tarp hung up with plastic cable ties. Where's the solid illuminated sign? Come on LSV, as my old gran used to say "if you are going to do something, do it properly".

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 what I would have expected from the club a couple of years ago. I expected so much more now we have advanced so far. It is no better than the flags provided by the fans. Possibly a mistake relying on LSV to provide it.

| Can't see what the fuss is about quite honestly.
I have seen the pic on twitter and it looks ok to me.
Come on Starbug what would you put in its 'place.
Looks a lot better than was there this time last week imo.

| The landlord controls how his building looks, some don't seem able or willing to grasp that bit
It's better than it was but not as good as it might have been

| They would never have built the stadium if we did not have a rugby club in the town, tenants we might be but without us there would never have been a sports village put up a proper sign Home of Leigh Centurions in big red letters over the arch

| Ideally over the top or below the screen is the preffered position for the clubs badge/logo, ' Home of Leigh Centurions ' and also the LSV signage, however that is most likely being saved for a stadium sponsor
Maybe part of any sponsors deal might include a better sign positioned as above, as surely a naming rights deal would end the use of the LSV as the stadium reference

Ideally Elton John could have donated the proceeds of his concert to us but sadly he didn't.
Leigh Sports Village is a stand alone Ltd company and has a duty to maximise it's commercial and revenue opportunities just like any other business as you know.
If we have any wealthy Leigh Centurions fans or indeed any business people reading this with a few quid to spare and would like to buy the stadium naming rights then get in-touch and we can name it what we like and dictate were and when we want signage. Until then we work within the parameters we have and do the best we can.
The reality is we have/ had little or no budget available this year for a big fancy neon sign and LSV very kindly not only agreed to the prime position we now have above the main entrance but funded the costs of the sign and installation including access equipment, labour, plant and associated materials.
While some people will always chose to critise and find fault without knowing the facts there are some people who work closely with the club with regular dialogue with the board who post here so you would think would have a bit more sense. We are all entitled to an opinion and thats all well and good but people need to realise we don't have a bottomless pit of money available so we do what we do to build relationships and show respect to our partners who are working with us to make Leigh Centurions the very best it can be with the tools we have at our disposal.
We'd all love an ideal world sadly we don't live in one so until the next Marwan Koucash comes along we will just have to keep going heads down and doing the best for the club we all love.
Cheers
Andy

| Have Kingstone Press bought the stadium naming rights they have 2 big sign at the front of the stadium and inside. We all know the club don't have that kind of money to spend we all wish they had. I have no idea how much a sign would cost or if we would be able to have it erected without the management of the stadiums say so. We all want's what's best for our great club nothing wrong in wanting a sign to be proud of, Andy your doing a great job along with the rest of the board the coaching staff the players all the back room staff and the best fans in the league. keep up the good work, one day lets see that neon sign LEIGH CENTURIONS proudly on the front of the stadium

Andy, while initially I posted my " no comment " to the sign that has been erected, my second post on the subject was actually in defense of the LSV and the club ,if of course you actually read it properly without your pre concieved opinion of my supposed criticism of everything the BOM and the LSV do, it really is tiresome
IF the prime positions are already in use it removes the potential for an income stream for the club and the LSV ,all I was suggesting is IF and WHEN a stadium naming rights sponsor is found, part of the deal could be for a better and more suitable position club sign to be fitted
No criticism of club or LSV in either of these posts
Providing they are read properly with an open mind
All the best
Steve
