A fund raising idea? : Tue Mar 10, 2009 3:50 pm  

If LISA were to get some polos or sweatshirts made, how anyone buy them. I wouldnt want to go down that route if they wont sell?

i think you should ask the membership first, they might make a nice "exclusive members only" item

I will but next meeting only in April so no harm in putting a "feeler" out

It's got nothing to do with me really as I'm not a member, so I wouldn't buy a Lisa shirt, if I wanted a Leigh polo I'd buy an official one.

I understand the idea for Lisa to raise additional money, and IMO you should target non-members like me, as well as members, but I don't think it should be at the expense of a current sponsor, unless you were planning to go with O'Neill's? (Even then I wouldn't get one)

Perhaps you need to look at things they don't sell, but things that all fans may buy, Flags, Beach towels, Bog seats

I'm sure you could think of more.

Some good points here.
why would non LISA members want to buy a t-shirt with LISA on it

but if LISA could make something thats not available in the o'neills shop then you could be onto a winner

Any suggestions as to what could be written on them or what ' pictures ' could be on them

Personally I think a lot of the stuff in the club shop is over priced (£27 for a polo shirt is a tad expensive IMO), think you need to put the design on here and price first to give us an idea at what your looking for......I may get one - depending what they look like.

Gotta agree with Wayne Linda, sell what the fans want and I dont think its clothing.

Anything which raises funds and has the town crest on it gets a thumbs up from me.
