i find any walking uncomfortable





is it really worth taking a bucket though? once your past lowton whos going to want to donate to our team?

Is it a big bucket

I'm doing the walk and I also feel uncomfortable asking people from outside of Leigh so shall be sticking to family & friends!

Taking a bucket is going a bit far though, were leaving leigh early on a Sunday morning from the Sports Village can't see anyone much past that point willing to throw in even if they were up and about

A wheelie bin would be more apt...

Oh christ don't give him ideas..

We could use it as a giant mobile coolbox for a few cans

...with all donations gratefully accepted of course

thats a great idea, make sure nobody uses it aas a sick bucket tho

Now where talking!!

you volunteering to drag it though Matt??

ok you've popped my bubble now i'm using a bum bag instead LOL

Don`t forget to use the brown wheelie bin for all the empties then.

I'm guessing your not a fan of LISA? Or how else would LISA raise funds if not through sponsorship?

Hes a member so that answers your question

I guess so

How about[size=150 "The LEIGHgion Of Fans Marching For The Centurions."[/size

On speaking to Basil re recruitment whilst he wont turn the correct player down from overseas he is looking for players from 'over here'.

:1ynflogy

I'm a big fan of the LISA organisation , but I am not a fan of what I see as ' begging ' for money to give to what is a business

The members give their money freely as they are fans of the club , I have no problem with actual ' fans ' being asked to sponsor somebody , but to walk with buckets just generally asking passers by is wrong

IMO things like this can damage what I consider LISA should be , We tried a couple of years ago to change the idea of just having a monthly meeting where the same questions are asked to the players/coaches/directors as the previous month , the idea being that every other month we would have an ' event ' , something that fans who were not LISA members would want to attend , mix with other fans,players,coaching staff , have a laugh , test their knowledge , possibly decide to join and get a feeling of actually getting something for their contribution

If I was to go walking round the north stand on a match day asking people to sponsor me to do the london marathon to buy me a new car , what do you think would be the response ?

Leigh Centurions are a business just like mine or any other , they provide a service , entertainment [ well sometimes they do



, which they then expect to be paid for , they are not a charity

The mindset of sports club owners needs to change if their clubs and their sporting competitions are to survive and prosper , just going round on the same merrygoround year after year until another administration comes along just wont work , like any business if what you provide doesn't bring in enough money to actually run the business , you go bust , you then have only one choice , find a new way of making money , but not begging'"

completing over a 15 mile walk to raise money for our local rugby team isn't begging! You tell locals (Leythers) you're cause & they decide wether or not to sponsor you. We're not begging as some have described it we're merely informing locals & leaving the decision up to them. Whether you support Leigh Centurions or not with out this club & it's facilities this town would be nothing! Lets keep wot bit of existing heritage we have left do you want to be known as the biggest town in the country with out a train station or as the town with a good professional rugby league club?

I see no one is disputing wot I said

That will be because nobody can understand you.

Taken from an online dictionary
