| The club have the capacity to get the message out
They have available to them a large exhibition type trailer that could [ if asked and permission granted ] be placed in the town centre,Asda,retail park having special offers available where they can be taken up instantly , this combined with the 12 ft X 6 ft A frame advertising trailer that they also have free access to being towed round town , Asda , retail centre car park [ personnaly I'd suggest towed by one of those ' Boom ' trikes with Dave armitstead in a santa suit riding it ] would give them the neccessary profile
So why dont they do it ?

Very frustrating Ste, I know AT has done more than enough to give us a team / coach to be proud of but what do the other guys do? Surely one of them can spare an hour or two to discuss this sort of thing with yourself & others.

For gawds sake there must must a club official Reading this and then realise that it's a no brainer to take starbug up on this fantastic marketing opportunity?????
It's not the first time it's been mentioned so get something done about it Leigh and take advantage of what's being offered for the good of the club and get Yed out er sand !!!

Why??
I've said this a few times about different things people on here come up with great ideas but if someone from the club only comes on here once per week or whatever they might miss suggestions like this, people need to suggest the ideas to the club, people have a go at the club for assuming people will turn up but were assuming they read this and will use the ideas.

| I've got a better idea.
Pay someone £6 an hour to put a flyer under the windscreen wiper of every car on asda car park on a saturday morning. Why bother going all round the houses when you'll have constant access to nearly every family in Leigh with this method.
Sure it looks a bit tacky, but if no one knows, no one turns up.
Wastes no ones time other than the printer and the kid being paid minimum wage.

maybe the flyers in the actual building (allthough im not 100% sure what legal rule it would be breaking as long as it doesnt show any favour to a n other party)
how about a poster comp in the schools that will be used as polling stations, top 3 winners and class posters to be displayed in the corridor/room that just so happens to be used for voting? would that get passed the legal issue as it could be classed as a school project?
cant be illegal to park the said trailor on the road as long as it doesnt break any road rules.
it was just a thinking outside of the box idea to target people who may not see the official website papers etc, just thought it was a good way to get any message out to the masses for little cost.

| Just by being there it immediately 'causes an obstruction' and please dont quote parking outside your own home etc... as all vehicles parked on a road is an obstruction and there is case law to that effect.
As for polling stations there was/is (havent looked for a long while) of do's and don'ts and im near sure posters were on it, I once had a tory prospective canditates agent complain to me because the decor in the room used in a school was predominately yellow (I did point out that it was spring and I hadn't seen many blue daffodils about - she wasn't pleased), she was trying to say it would subconciously intice people to vote Liberal (as they were then), I did point out that it was spring and I hadn't seen many blue daffodils about - she wasn't pleased, and a labour one complain because the official in charge of the polling station was wearing a blue tie, so I couldnt see any body allowing any predominated coloured posters, its a legal minefield and well left alone as the fines can be horrendous.
Plus the elections are a month away have you ever tried to get a jnr school to change tac on the national ciriculum at such short notice - I have and failed miserably.
Not trying to pour cold water on ideas but they need thinking out

| With her thinking like that and her lack of humour I expect she is now in the Shadow Cabinet.
Back on thread I have just had a call from a mate.He can,t miss his Leyther fix for 2 weeks so him and another are booking flights for the Limoux game. Maybe our next game at the LSV will have a much improved attendance on last seasons fixture.

| Given the number of people who don't bother voting and the fact that under eighteens can't vote I doubt the wisdom of using Polling Stations as a marketing tool.

"politicians are all W*****s, go and watch some rugby instead!
