| Was tricky 2 pick a mom from Sunday but that was because all of our players went well.
I think for eg Greg McNally has been reading my posts about who should be our fullback because that break he made for the 100 yard try was outstanding.
Ryan Duffy too must read my posts because I have been posting for a long time about how I think he will get better season by season.
I remember our teams under Paul Tersiz of course and they played some good stuff but they could not compete with our current team.
Remember Batley are a very good Championship side and did not play badly but the Leythers are capable of getting even better as everyone will see as this season goes on.
For those who went you must have been very impressed after last Sundays game.

We're doing our best to sort out the issues - the solution is proving elusive so far, and the biggest issue is that we only seem to have problems when the stadium has a reasonable number of spectators in.

Sounds just like the music Wigan come out to. Arrghhh! What happend to the piece from last season? Used to send a tingle down the spine as the lads came out and was very classy.

Thanks for that Michael, it sounds great.
I know what you're saying about the sound levels because when the stadium is empty and we're doing the sound checks for the radio/LCTV broadcast, the music is really loud but when the running out/try music is being played later on, it always seems much quieter.

It's pretty loud in the West Stand! Yet when the announcer starts to talk, the sound sometimes 'breaks up'. To me, it often seems to be a fault in new stadia. Technology, eh?!

| The performance was outstanding, I had some concerns after the friendlies about our defence, they would seem to be unfounded now. The lads did really well, stunning way to start the season.
As for the tannoy, it was particularly annoying on Sunday as I had arranged a shout out for my daughters birthday at half time and have no idea if it was read out or not, couldn't hear anything clearly in the North Stand.

| The tannoy system is a huge area of concern for myself and many people at present. The club as a whole have made miraculous progress over the last 8 months and the end product on the pitch last Sunday was fantastic to watch.
However, the tannoy has been constantly unreliable since we played our first game at the LSV. The match day announcer has the most difficult, yet extremely important job in the ground on the day. He is the focal point for everything that is happening at the club and the interface with all fans. When he has to constantly battle issues with his mic and comms it looks amateurish and inevitably impacts on his overall performance and ability to create a rapport with the crowd. A few first time visitors have commented on this to myself over the last few years and I assumed that the LSV would have had it sorted by now!
Do they have the same issues at Blackburn Reserve games? During the RL World Cup game were there any issues?? I don't know because I couldn't attend. If there wasn't, then what are we doing wrong on matchdays?
The cheerleaders and the flags all looked really smart also and great to see the kids being involved. I think it would be better for them to stand in a wide 'V' shape from the tunnel though as al the players by-passed their guard of honour on Sunday and only a couple ran through it (which was a shame as it looked really, really smart).
I had a brilliant day on Sunday and felt priviliged to see my home team play a style of RL i haven't witnessed for a long time, culminating in some unbelievable tries. I know EVERYBODY at the club is trying so hard to make matchday the best it can be and this is not a cheap shot at anybody. Its an observation by myself and others which I hope can be resolved to enable the matchday experience to become even more professional and allow us to stand out when we reach the Top.

| Just as a comment for those involved in the match day experience off the pitch.
To try and create a bit more interest in our league and the teams in it maybe a few half time or latest scores wouldn't go amiss with a few full time ones also announced when known at the end of the game ?

Agree entirely on scores announced at half time. It's always interesting to hear what's going on in other matches at half time and can make the 2nd half even more exciting if we know a rival is in a close game, especially when we get into the business end of the season.

| I have to say that I found that music clip to be totally uninspiring. Maybe, at 39, I am getting old but its not the kind of thing that makes the hairs on the back of the neck stand up, is it?

Just so people understand the thinking behind this, It's a remix of dance track based on gladiator the film so it's of a Centurion theme.
Appreciate it won't be everyone's cup of tea but the players want it and we have to try and move with the times and target a younger audience also.
While high oh silver lining will always have a special place in the heart of leigh fans many people have complained that the music is old hat and yesteryear so we are just trying to give the new leigh centurions a new musical experience to match.
A guy who is now a good friend of mine and the club and also works for our official club partners "Evans Halshaw" cut and edited/ mixed (whatever the technical term is for this stuff ) this especially for Leigh Centurions free of charge which I'm really grateful for.
DJ Caino is a Ministry of Sound DJ and can command over 150 pounds per hour his gigs so it was nice of him to take the time do this for us FOC.
When he issued the CD to me with it on I played it very loud through my car sound system and it is awesome but less so if played through an iPad or PC on here.
I just don't think it's either loud enough or has enough bass through the PA system at LSV to have the desired effect however I do know that Michael Ward and Rob are giving up their own time out of hours to sound check and test the music systems working with LSV and are working hard to identify the problem and improve the sound so we are doing our best please rest assured.
Cheers
Andy

| Probably in a minority but I don't think this music does the job, but then I think players running onto the pitch is more uplifting than strolling on.
