2000 speccies with a winning team should be a no brainer unless the thurs/fri games kill things, 2400 should be very achievable and I would like to think 2600 is within our grasp.
I would then like to see a big wedge of cash created by opening up shares in the club for the average fan to buy, this then funds SL dream.

After the last 6 month why can't people feel optimistic about whats going on off the pitch?'"
Right to be optimistic j.c. What we must avoid is complacency. |

I'm not sensing any complacency Alan.
People should stop looking for nagatives were there are non and start building on the positives. |

The title of her post is "Before we get too excited". The emphasis on the word "too". It is great to be excited and enthused, as I am sure she is, about what we have seen on the pitch so far.
BUT, it is simply good forward thinking to make sure the foundations are going to be strong enough to ensure that what happened before does not happen again. Some people and some organizations love to operate in "firefight mode" - always dealing with emergencies and never planning long term.
Some fans will only care about the results on the pitch as soon as they get the slightest hint that the panic is over. Look how LISA membership declined when people felt Arthur was bankrolling the club (as he was in the end).
The fact remains that the healthier our finances are, the quicker we will be able to achieve our aims on the pitch. All successful organizations are NEVER satisfied with where they have managed to get to, they never rest on their laurels.
The need to raise funds and keep rattling the tins in various ways may well be turn out to be a permanent one - no it shouldn't have to be that way but its a fact of life, especially in this economic environment.
Now is the not the time to get "donation fatigue" or think we have reached the end when we have only just started - and now is certainly not the time to take a pop at Lynda who has moved heaven and earth (as have others) to get to where we are now.'"
Well said. Which I think is the point Lynda was trying to get across before she got shot down. |

Exactly!
I don't think it's negative at all, to re-iterate that we need to strive to maximise our income. |

We should move games so that we avoid wendyball etc. So if Utd and City (and Bolton?) play on a Saturday, we should play on Sunday etc......

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg |

There must be plenty who watch both Leigh and a togger team. Makes sense that people who do both can at least get to the game. Not an issue once we get to the end of May until August.

No doubt there are, as well as a lot of folks who like spending time with their families on a sunday.
We go with what the club have decided regards our particular playing day.

But we need to get as many people through the gates as possible. If it was City v United at the same time that would reduce the gate by quite a fair percentage I would think.

You cannot keep chopping and changing every match just because there is another local match on. It would get far too confusing and disruptive - big national events are different (we all support England - or most do). You might end up losing as many fans as you gained by being flexible.
