LIVING THE DREAM ALL THE WAY TO THE SUPER LEAGUE PLAY-OFFS! ''All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them'':Black Backgrounds/Miss%20Piggy.gif



Quote: DemonUK "Hi TS, are you ok? I've noticed in a few of your recent posts there is a little venom struggling to get out.'"


Not at all D. When I know we've asked every businessman women and general fan of Leigh can we help or donate then I will settle for under paying people. Anything short is a disgrace.

I'd hazard a guess a high number of us have been through redundancy situations in recent years it's not nice to say the least!!

In all fairness Ste would you be able to compile such a list? I'd say that just about every possible outlet has been used to highlight the financial problems and in all honesty I think you're doing a bit of a dis-service to the people who are working their nads off to come up with fundraising ideas and implement them.

kcab sfrawdder 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: Tipster Ste "Is it out of our control???? Have we voiced concerns??

Every businessman or women Leigh, have we asked them??'"


You haven't been to a RFL council or APC meeting have you ?

The majority sit there quietly , one or two voice their concerns , Nigel or Richard ( probably Ralph now ) give the pre selected answers on how they are looking at all the options and are confident things will be fine , then they have the buffet

I'll ask the question again

How many businesses in Leigh ( and surrounding area ) are owned by leythers and employ more than 20 people ?

Quote: leighonardo "I agree. I have been advocating the necessity to invest in our brand equity for years.

My avatar is a case in point. Irn-Bru is the number one grocery brand in Scotland.

Why do you think they spend £millions advertising all over Scotland every year ?

The answer is not only to remain number one grocery brand but to also remain as number one selling soft drink year on year in an extremely competitive market.'"


On the subject of marketing , take a look at some of Gutterfaxs ideas on the 'This time of year again ' thread on the Quinbroncos site , they are very good , and let's face it , their problems are similar to ours , him being a genuine ' Marketing Guru ' currently working in New Zealand , but a cockney RL convert , gives him a clearer view of the sport and the problems within it

Quote: Starbug "Mark , you'd be hard pushed to find a Leyther giving the Lions any real ' stick ' , I'd go as far to suggest that like myself there are many from Leigh who would follow your club next if we didn't exist , I and many other leythers look forward to visiting you and having you at ours this coming season Thanks mate and likewise.

Bolton by birth, Irish by blood, LEYTHER by heart and soul!! [quote="BBC Sport":suio7kr3]30/04/06 "Some of W*gan's travelling fans headed towards the exit before it was even over.".................no change there then!![/quote:suio7kr3] [quote="Wembley71":suio7kr3].....They are our people. Drummond, Costello, Manfredi, Svabic, Martyn, Street, Tickle, Patel, Mossop, Horo, Bristow, Leuleui, Varley, Fleary, Rivett, Tabern, Doran, Woods, Donlan, Wilshire, Leaefa, Hansen, Sale, Murphy… these are all my people. As a Leyther, you’re one of us the moment you come here to wear the shirt. I don't care where you were born, what colour you are, what religion you are, what language you speak. You're one of us, part of our culture, writing our history as you create your own, and making us stronger for it....[/quote:suio7kr3]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10303.jpg



Quote: Leyther_Matt "What head coach?!
That's what I thought Matt!!......can only assume Basil is 'contracted' 'til the end of the month (as appears to be traditional) - so if offering the benefit of his opinion in the meantime - unless......the decision has already been made, but yet to be announced!!!!!

The plot thickens.......... icon_wink.gif
