Yep. If we had a few more like you and less who just cried about things we'd be in a much better place-we're lucky to have one of you! :thumb:

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!

The only revenue stream the club has is fans through the turnstiles , we need a lot more fans , simple as , get to work


This is a reference to the fans of the club , if we want a club , then we must sell the club to more people than currently come , the other option is we all pay double what we pay at the moment , maybe that will give some people an idea of the size of the problem

Try reading the thread 'what can WE do?'

viewtopic.php?f=22&t=488448

Maybe instead of spending their time moaning and whinging, maybe come up with some ideas or get off your backsides and do something yourself.


I have read it, and it is great what people are trying to do re spreading the word but if you read my posts again you will see I and a few others mentioned marketing from the club! They cannot expect to do nothing (i'm not saying they don't before anyone says anything) and people to turn up becuase some fans are trying!

FWIW I am talking to as many people as possible about how good Leigh are and to come down to watch them!

For me looking from the outside at the club and having always looked forward to games played at Hilton Park and hating the LSV experience, the club needs to take control (say a long lease) of may be the east stand etc and give the supporters back that local club house feeling (that Hilton Park had) this might also get some alternative revenue streams going. Anyway looking forward to the Fev match, should be game of the season so far.


Don't build up your hopes too much - Leigh have a hard game on the Friday, while Featherstone have a rest. Two games in four days, against a team that hasn't played in eleven days may be too big an ask.

:roll: Who's crying about things!

People's attitudes on here baffle me at times, firstly Linda does a great job well done :CLAP:

The points being made are the CLUB need to also (also meaning I agree that we as fans need to do things to help) do more, when was the last time you saw or heard about anything the CLUB do from a marketing point of view, yes the e-mails are sent to people who are regulars maybe some who are not (no way of knowing). Other than that what do the club actually do to market themselves around the town, this is a serious qustion by the way!

i agree, we havent done much since we had the players in the town centre on the rocking bull/rugby ball thing.
its not the clubs fault, its the lack of intrest within the community. Our crowds are actually good atm. After seeing Featherstones crowd against Barrow were looking ok. Think they got just over 1700
