Yes because marketing should always be at the forefront of the clubs objectives but marketing spend is easily overlooked for that one extra special player as it was throughout Sporting Club Leigh's tenure from 2003 onwards.

That's a big mistake they have never grasped. Something to think about.

'Many a small thing has been made large by the right kind of advertising' - Mark Twain

don't be silly 'just coz you are not at the club anymore'.
Leigh is a 'footie on the TV' town, end of.

So you think the club cannot be any better than it is?

How incredibly negative

Terry, Starrybug has not been watching Leigh for years - ignore his posts.

I've not watched Leigh for a whole 6 days

did I say that ?
what is the magic wand then mr. expert, go on enlighten us ?
nothing to do with no promotion/relegation, and could you advise Salford or London on how to increase their crowds.

There is no magic wand, thats the point , just hard work and inovation/inspiration

When we had Promotion we only averaged 1,800 in 2004, so what was the excuse then, not forgetting we had a true Legend of the sport in our team that year

Salford and London have failed miserably to sell themselves, and if Mr Koucash thinks he can just buy a team and that alone will fill the Barton stadium, he will be very dissapointed

What do you think is the answer ? , just accept Leigh is a TV footy town? , as I said, very negative, frank said we are 700 short, I say we are 10,000 short

No need to apologise, last sat was my 1 st Leigh match in over 12 months, and I wont be there tommorrow

The reason? , I've stopped enjoying it, simple as , hopefully I will start to enjoy it again

That's the problem.

Once a fan stops enjoying it, they find something more enjoyable to fill their Sunday's and it becomes increasingly more difficult to entice a fan back the longer they are absent. (About 100 times as a more tangible measure after a year out I reckon)

Last week I told everyone about a fan I bumped into at the Whitehaven match who also had been absent a while but like Starbug he said he won't be back either this week.

Now make of that what you will but I got slated on here big time for giving a reason as to why He said that.

I do hope we play some entertaining Rugby League on the park today

The game today didn't help we sort of packed in playing when the game was won, we need to entertain for the full 80

We lost a lot of Momentum when Riddy went off , but you cant blame PR for that I would have done the same .

The lads played the game exactly to PRs wishes. He said in his pre match interview that he would hope that we could have the game sealed by 50 mins so that we didn't have to struggle for the full 80 and have something in the tank left for thursday. I take my hat off to the team today for achieving this and for doing exactly what the coach required of them. Ant Nicholson for me to start from now on. We look more on the pace with him there. Steve Madan has had his worst game today for a long time and hope he has got it out of the way and does'nt repeat today on thursday. We have got a fantastic pack coming on and if we didn't have to loose Sam it would be a winning team next season. Don't know what upset Michael Ostick on our line but I have never seen that side of him ever on a field. I would be looking at the young Presley for next year I thought he had a top game for York and we definitely need a lively scrumhalf like him if Pendlebury is still too young. All in all I enjoyed todays game I thought the York team never gave up and all credit to them. When they were warming up I said that they just looked like kids compared to us but they didn't play like them. Satisfied with today but I'm worried about Greg. We could do without loosing him for thursday.
