Yep, just a shame none of the parents and children could hear any of the announcements, music when all the dancers were on,it seemed like the PA was not switched on in that stand! There were no programme sellers, no half-time draw tickets, the bar shut 5 minutes after half-time (lots of missed opportunites for crisp, pop, pie and beer sales) and most importantly no loo paper in the ladies loos but I suppose at least it has a roof and electricity!

Whatever the take up ,I thought it was excellent last night having all 4 sides of the stadium with fans in them , It made things much better , My main focus would now be to get a plus 5,000 attendance at the Fax game , we should be telling Fax now that we will open the south stand if we can guarantee they will bring over 500 fans [ Yes I would put free transport on if it was up to me , but it isn't my monetary risk , it looked to me that those that did attend enjoyed the experience , it must be repeated , those that didn't take up the offer need to be asked why , and a way found to get them to come next time

There is no easy way to get the interest out there , no single thing you can do , it is many idea's used over and over again

On the official site(27th April) Leigh highlight an initiative for all local schools........... No reason to doubt that the club did n`t contact all local Junior schools, maybe the problem is the other way round.?

I find it strange that some schools only received the email yesterday, when some got it and signed up a couple of weeks ago, usually when I receive emails from the Community department they are addressed to other people as well, it took me a while but they seem to understand that you can send it to more than one person or school at the same time.

Do we know that the email this week was the first?

Do we know that it wasn't the schools who didn't pass on the info soon enough?

Beat me to it, I'm not the fastest at typing especially with Whiskey in one hand

and a game on TV

Only just read this, and you make some valid points, which hopefully we'll all learn by.
