The bucket collection would need authourising by the pubs/bars . The only downside is bars will probably say no because a member of staff would have to keep a eye on it.

I like the idea about small signs up the bypass

If you want to go into Hindley Green area then the railings at the traffic lights outside the Bethel, you get a few advertising on them, and it's a good vantage point going from Leigh to Hindley, or Atherton.

I think a tuck shop like the one at Cas for the kids run by the Junior Centurions could be a money spinner and then the kids can buys sweets /snacks/pop without being ripped off.

In terms of security, FCUM had huge barrels so you can't reach in to get any money, nor would anyone be able to nick them. Will check where they stored them on non-matchdays etc as obviously they share Gigg Lane with Bury so they wouldn't be on the concourse all the time.


Again that one would be at the disrection of LSV/EMC.

We store them in our store room at Gigg

Right on cue, cheers Ste.

maybe we should enquire about one of these then?

Spot on - we're going to talk to the LSV about that one, Lynda.

Why not have one of our mobile Supporters , walking up and down Bradshawgate or King St with a Sandwich Board , advirtising Forthcoming Games , or on a bike up Leigh Road .

The person that does that will get done for drink driving

Hire a guy with an "end is Nigh" board outside the ground to get the Hilton Park feeling back

Lets have a fanzine mag, the ones they used to do were really funny and we could get the players involved as we have a couple of comedians among them

Give local pubs a season ticket in exchage for poster up advertising the games, the pub can raffle off each game to winner of their quiz night etc etc and hopefully the people in the pub may attend games as a result of enjoying a freebie ticket they've won.
