Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

| Quote: PlayTheBall "In response to Starbug's further comments - I don't feel any need or obligation to identify myself or to offer any explanations to anyone.
However to put everyone's mind at rest and to avoid anyone getting carried away with any crazy conspiracy theories - I shall explain. I am quite simply an avid Leigh fan with some commercial experience through my employment and have followed the club home and away for over 30 years.
My wife is highly amused at Starbug's demand to know which member of the BOM I am.
I am most certainly not a Member of the BOM and have never at any time met or spoken to a single member of the BOM.'"
My suggestion of your board membership was more ' tongue in cheek ' than anything serious brought on by as Andy aluded to how close to the party line you were , no conspiracy theories, just a bit of fun

| Quote: Twitch "Bradford were never out of the top 4 for attendances but as we know went bang at least twice and only kept going due to the RFL buying the ground.
You can't argue with the fact that bigger crowds bring in more revenue and sponsors but its not the panacea to success ,an important part I agree but only part of the story on the bumpy road to long term success.'"
It is only a part, but the biggest part, and probably the most important part

| Didn't we average nearly 5k in 2005? With a competitive team you can add 3k to that minimum. Does anyone on here remember when Warrington averaged 4k, it can be done!

Leigh 54 Widnes 16 FFS!!!
Leigh 50 Widnes 18 We gave them 3 tries !!!
Widnes 18 Leigh 24 Still no points in the 2nd half!!
Good luck Widnes. See you in 2015 !![/b]:8043.jpg |

| I think we are going in the right direction.
I am glad we lost on Sunday because the Mantra of going through the season unbeaten was putting pressure on the boys week in week out. We could have easily lost 4 this season !!
I am predicting a couple of 3k crowds before the play offs. If this happens (and to be honest, i feel 6-30 Saturday is the way to go), no one needs to be Nostradamus to realise the improvement the club has made in 12 months !!

| I hope the club don't use that phrase ' will the town back a SL team'. I know what you mean DJ but this phrase should be no way associated with the club.

Maybe have a ' Census ' to find out perhaps?

| Don't think you will go as fare as Cumbria, but if you can send me some flyers i will post them in Workington and Whitehaven.
I am building a cumbrian Leyth fan base in West Cumbria, but i need more Leigh promotional stuff, lets not just make it in the surrounding areas of Leigh lets make it country wide.
Would the BOM help with the cost of coaches, i can probably get 2 or 3 coaches for home and away games?
You know it makes sense.

Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.

Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

Hi Steve,
Just spoken with Derek Beaumont and he says that if you can fill a coach of 50 people then the club will subsidise the journey to the extent of the price of your return coach and match ticket will cost you just £20 each. Which is a great deal in so much as your match tickets are £16-18 each anyway!

| Hi
Mi Dad spends a lot of time in Marbella at his villa and has a few mates over there who if they can get another passport would love to come to games, he is willing to leaflet the area if the £20 offer is available. You shouldn't just limit the market to Cumbria plus his mates can bring over lots of cash that needs cleaning
