Exactly Matt.........and all the people who scoffed and smirked last November should wake up and smell the coffee now before it's too late !!
Gillian and Diane won't be the only decent good hardworking people losing their jobs thanks to the "White Elephant" that is the LSV !

| Crying shame.
Both are unsung heroes and always had a smile in that shop. I mentioned it to my daughter this morning and she asked 'what will happen to Gillian?'.
Hopefully something can be sorted one way or another.

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 |

| Apparently the club are looking at on line sales and having a ' mobile ' shop at the LSV on match days as Widnes and several other clubs have done and do at present
IF the LSV management will allow it , so dont hold your breath there then

They could make it into a place of public gathering,free of charge, & call something like "The Mick Martyn Bar", where realistic prices were charged for things.

The LSV have got Leigh Centurions and Leigh East by the bollox now they have nowhere else to go unless they cough up the asking price .
Would be interesting to know if the clubs knew before hand that they were going to be taken to the cleaners and have little say in when and where they could play and train .
Did they know the costs and conditions before they were conned into leaving their old grounds and moving into this shiney Shangra La ?
Reminds me of that old bloke with the placard who used to walk round Hilton Park in the 70's " Repent The End Is Nigh "
Crilly Park it is then
Chuck Leigh Athletic F.C into the mix my friend. 52 years of football history now on the verge of folding. Throw Leigh Harriers into it if you like.
The whole thing as now become a shambles!
Who is accountable for the administration at the L.S.V because in my opinion they are making a right b***s of it. Leigh Centurions, Leigh East, Leigh Genesis, Leigh Harriers, Leigh Athletic all need to sit round the table and present a united front against these capitalist thieves. Put pride to one side, because if we don't then certain demise is imminent.
To the best of my knowledge Leigh Harriers brought money to the table from the sale of thier Holden Road location, they where promised the world and have received very little.
I was speaking recently to a leading figure at Leigh Harriers who told me this " The old ground was a s**t***e but at least it was our s**t***e " A bit blunt, and i apologise for my language, but this just about sums it up for me. I totally agree with him, when Leigh Athletic played at Holden Road they guaranteed a good crowd due to it's town centre location. As such food and bar takings where healthy. The old playing surface was always maintaned by the football club, and was kept immaculate. The atmosphere was superb considering it's amateur football, but above all the social scene was outstanding.
Now replace this with an out of town location, no bar or food sales, a beach for a playing surface, and the total demise of the social aspect. And all this for leaving Leigh Harriers and therefore Leigh Athletic with extortionate bills to pay for sub standard fascilities.
Unless something is done quickly and i mean quickly then i'm afraid the future looks bleak! I know rugby and football don't mix but i reiterate...Put pride to one side and let's get together round the table.
I'm proud of my association with Leigh Athletic, and i'm proud of the Leigh sporting community, above all i believe in sport for all, not sport for them that can afford it!
Yours Leigh Athletic commitee member and proud Leyther.

| We need a shop in the town centre in a good spot...... the old streetwise sports is ideal. Could also relocate the ticket office there - the rent would be cheaper and will make more profit for O`Neills and the club as people dont tend to walk all the way to the LSV shop on a weekday to have a look around the shop. In the town centre would make more sense.

| It stinks reallly, I think a PUBLIC MEETING , would be a good idea instead of the LISA meeting this month, hold at the biggest room in town invite LSV management and lets thrash it all out. IMHO if somethings not done quick we are in danger of it being too late.

Absolutely, now's the time to unite. A public meeting with the LSV management is what's required......and soon.
