| 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.

| And when they've finished they can have a lovely new (empty) stadium they can be very proud of. After all we don't want to ruin it by actually playing sports there or, god forbid, people going inside to watch do we?

Heaven forbid! How dare you insinuate that men, women, and children can actually go to the L.S.V and actually watch and /or participate in sport!

| Quote: leytherjay "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.'"
The old card shop opposite Lloyds TSB would be cheaper rent I imagine, and would still be more than big enough.

| Well I am truly shocked at what Im reading here ,
Every single resident of the LSV from Leigh Athleic to Leigh Centurions and their fans have been shafted good style and are being slowly bled dry and forced out , even the Park Inn Hotel is planning to sue the council because the facilities and passing trade that was promised never came to pass .
How do they expect what are really amatuer clubs who suvive on money they generate themselves to pay these outrageous prices when all that was promised never materialised ,
Where's the Multi-plex Cinena and the Bowling Alley ? , Where are all the shops and resteraunts and the the Tesco that was coming and the bus service that was going to provide the passing trade that could have gone for a pint and a bar snack at the Easts or the Harier / Athletic or O'Neil's cub shop , they are charging well over the odds and provided or are giving nothing back .'
I would like to hear Mr Chairmans veiw on this topic ,
We've read Optomist's veiw of things from the Harriers and the footy clubs and we all know that Leigh and the fans got stuffed , but if they could would they go back to their old gound as it was or leave this White Elephant ( and the bills ) that is the LSV behind ? .
I await Mr C's opinion ( so I'll give him a nudge ) ,
Olympic Games in this country in 2012 and kids are being priced out of playing sport .
Andy Burnham , Your constiituency needs you !
Put your foot down and tell these b@stards where to get off .

| Sorry Mr C posts overlaped
Id still like to know your opinion on how this affects the financies of the club and are you getting what you thought you signed for from the LSV or would you rather stay at Grasmere St and pay the bills you could manage?
Im not pleased

| Quote: mr. chairman "just to let you know , LSV is a company set up by wigan council to run the lsv . at our meetings they (lsv ) never make a decision , the person who makes them is kevin lawson the councils solicitor, maybe the council should run it themselves , two years ago we were told a meeting between all partners would be held and one person from each organization would sit on the lsv board. this as not happened in two years so the divide and conquer idea is true
is the hotel happy
is the college happy
are the harriers happy
are centurions happy
are leigh east happy
the swimming baths and gym are not partners
are genesis happy
if everyone is happy , thats fine , but i dont know who is happy
i dont even know who all the partners are'"
Speaking on behalf of Leigh Athletic F.C..............WE ARE FAR FROM HAPPY!!!!!!!..........IN FACT TOTALLY P****D OFF!!!!!!!!!

| For good reasons I suppose, I reckon the developer who paid for (yes, them, not the Council) the vast majority of LSV had to provide the 'community facilites' before they had their day in the sunshine with the other stuff.
I suspect the current economic climate may have delayed that.
So these [icommunity facilites [/ifor the [icommunity partners[/i, paid for in large by a [iprivate developer [/iare then [irun by LSV [/iwho then wallops what turns out to be [icommunity individuals [/ifor a lot more than what they were paying previously.

I run my own business and as such due to the current economic climate i have had to " cut my cloth to suit " not wallop all my customers. If i did this, then it would be the demise of my business. However the L.S.V thinks that this is the way forward.......FOOLS THE BLOODY LOT OF THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leigh east love being at our new facility we are very proud of it , but we cant afford it . so give us the money you claimed from sport england in our name approx 900, 000 give us a piece of land and we will go , that will give you lot back what you have always wanted . our club !!. Simon and James know that i will always speak my mind and that means not keeping things in shop . now you know my views , we have had 27 meetings with the lsv and council and still we have not signed our lease, if we had signed two years ago Leigh east would not be in existence now......FACT'"
In my opinion the only way to sort this mess out is for all partners to sit round the table with the council and the L.S.V. The meeting should be attended by Andy Burnham.
Leigh Athletic would certainly welcome this.

| Mr Chairman that's shocking for you - and all the other partners. I truly hope you manage to get it all sorted - the LSV management should be put against a wall and shot. And where the hell is Andy Burnham - why isn't he demanding they all sit around a table to sort this mess out?
