We missed out on two of our best attendances by the times crowds are allowed back to normal our lot will have totally given up on the team unfortunately
I would have liked us to see some good crowds and great atmosphere

The season ticket holders come first. Unfortunately personally one who spends more than a season ticket each game is spat on.

I've been watching Leigh since the 60s but, unfortunately, can't afford these prices now. Add in a drink and something to eat and it's getting up to 40 quid. I could take in 2 or 3 games in a season that's about it. Sad when you are priced out of watching a club you have supported all your life but understand the need to meet their outgoings.

Ian, I never got complimentary tickets when i was a kid, mi dad lifted me over the turnstile.

After Sunday's debacle, i would offer those who paid £30 for a ticket, an admission price ticket for £15 for our next home game.

Even Dick Turpin wore a mask.

1964 when I got my first complimentary ticket Stan Owen, Walt Tabern, Mick Martyn - how we could do with players of their ilk now.

When my cryptocurrencies come in, I will take the baton from DB and give you your own personalised seat, Charlie.

I can see the headlines now - 'Billionaire crypto investor buys the LSV'
