42910_1337432023.jpg [i:5a56um9q]Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.[/i:5a56um9q]

I know, and the management company are going to run the club down to the ground unless someone gets a grip of what's happening there.
I just can't believe what's happening TBH. The whole thing seems to be turning into a nightmare!

| therin lies the problem mish the sponsor was a Leigh Cent sponsor and not a LSV catering company one, one thing you mcan rely on was that someone in the sponsors 'party' will have gone away blaming the centurions.

| Quote: mr. chairman "the lsv do read this board fact. our meeting with them confirmed this as they said they had people up at leigh east to see how many fans used the bar and they did not like what they saw on the forum regarding east promoting themselves as a pre and post match venue . we collapsed with laughter on hearing this , so if your reading this simon toone , come on down to leigh east for some good cheap food and cheap beer
These comments beggars belief. What do they expect? I applaud the efforts of Leigh East, The Ellesmere, Our House and the Park Inn who are making an effort to do something for the fans on match day.
Compare that to the Legends bar, no advertising, no offers, slap a £2 charge on each fan and then wonder why no one goes in.
I would suggest that the management of Leigh/LSV (never quite sure myself where one starts and the other ends) take a leaf out Mr Chairman’s book on how to promote their club/stadium.
As far as I can see he takes every opportunity to promote the Leigh East in a positive manner and keep people up-to-date without letting out matters that should be kept within the club.
Whenever I go on other clubs forum’s again he there promoting his club and inviting them down. Other than his own time this doesn’t require a huge marketing budget. So instead of the LSV criticising him, they should be fighting back and showing what they are made of.

| Quote: nighthawk "Not being funny but it is a rugby match not a fun day i can understand certain issues but it is all well and done shouting you dont like etc just stop moaning or just don't go its our new home and i for one like it, it is better than the old Hilton park by a country mile we have to move with the times when the ground does fill its a good atmosphere take the Wigan friendly that had the atmosphere but we are a long way from those days yet the club needs support not constant moaning of we don't like this and that its the first season at the venue for gods sake there are bound to be issues but as a club it needs support!'"
Did you say all that without taking a breath?
I'd agree about the whining etc, yes LSV is an infinatly better facility and you will find that 99% of the time I will back the club up on whatever happens.
Regarding the kids, it does have to be a fun day for them otherwise they are bored rigid. Its not a game of rugby to them, (in the same sense as it is to you and me), its an 'occasion' they need to enjoy.

'Away' stands (South and East) are sitting only. The North Stand is standing only. However, currently, only the West and North stands have been open, so if that's the case, when we play you, you may be able to stand!

That's absolutely brilliant - thanks, Keith.
I was asked, how we could sell more programmes and my simplistic answer was - 'Atttract more people to the games'. Easy, isn't it?

| It seems the majority of supporters want a MM type bar at the LSV, what about a full boycott of the Legends bar until they do? Well all of the 5ish people who go will need to agree.

I wonder if folk would then get to the ground early, pick up tickets, meet up in the supporters bar with mates, have a few beers and go into the ground.
If you are having a beer and dont have a ticket you are not going to walk to the ground to walk to a pub to walk back to the ground.
