Either that, or every time they put posters up myself and a Stockport County fan (manager of station) take them all down and if they ask permission to put them up they are told no.

One used to be on the main site as a 'splash'

Not sure who did that??

Getting back on topic, the best idea I have seen was when the RFL were in town when we played against the French. They had a mobile shop selling all the merchandise with credit card connection etc.

I know these don't come cheap, but what a fansastic idea. We could have it outside the LSV on match days and be in town the odd day selling gear (when we have something to sell) and match tickets. Mascot and players in attendance.

Maybe it would be a bit too expensive for a small club like us to buy one, but if the RFL got one and took it to games on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday it might help all clubs. Say Batley play Widnes on a Thursday, they could sell Batley and Widnes gear that has been sent by each club and International and RFL memorabilia and everyone gets a cut of the profit, everyone wins really. The RFL have to promise to visit every club down the leagues, maybe even tour town centres too, get full use out of it.

Your idea is a good one , albeit a couple of years late , the club has access to a trailer bought for the very purpose you suggest , if anything it is too big as it is 3/4 times bigger than the one you have posted a link to

The problem is staffing and stocking problems

You suggest the RFL should organize things , and you are correct they probably should at least help , what they should be doing is encouraging the clubs to work together in projects like this , 4 clubs locally all chipping in to buy a trailer and then helping each other with staffing

As Fred put earlier , ideally all the Championship clubs could if they really tried work together for the common good , unfortunately they cannot see the benefit of it , they just don't understand the idea that we only compete on the pitch , not off it

If you look at the other clubs websites in our league, they all have a superior number of replica gear than ourselves. We should be a leader in our league, apart from super doper Widnes who by the way have 8 new item on o'neills web site.

What we have is shocking for our club of our stature. We have no ambition - end off.

It isnt a lack of ambition , just that the rewards are not worth the effort involved , the percentage profit isn't great , and unless you do it ' full on ' it doesn't work

or maybe the club are using there money on more important things

I'd disagree there Wayne , the playing side once sorted takes care of itself , the main purpose of ' the club ' once the squad is assembled is to make as much money as they possibly can , don't forget we are a business

i'm just speculating as to why they arent spending money on a load of fashion accessories. Do you think theres enough profit to make them worthwhile seeing as we have really got a retail outlet for them?

People walking around town gives the club and their sponsors a boost. I don't watch super duper on TV, but. Know who sponsor the crust munchers, why do you think that is...

Your right there, if you go round Wigoon town centre nearly every other male has some sort of goon gear on, and some women as well for that matter.

i dont. i just look at that shirt and spew mi guts up.lol

I understand where you are coming from Wayne , but IMO when an ' income stream ' starts to become a ' cost ' then it's time to worry , in any business you can only cut costs so far , eventually you have to start to increase your turnover and gross profit , or your future will be bleak

So the question is , what can you sell , as that is what all businesses do in one form or another , they sell things , and Leigh Centurions are no different
