Fair do's I am a bit twitchy at the moment , but you do understand my point that with the general apathy our fans can sometimes display , not to mention trying to gain entrance for free as I have witnessed many times , the more that think ' so we've got a load signed up , I'll not bother ' the less chance we have of hitting the target

Fair enough! I think there is going to be a downside to whatever things we try to do. People will take advantage of the system somehow. However, as you have said, we have to run this as a business and put the emotions to one side. If there is a (reasonably certain and definable) net benefit to a scheme then we should proceed with it and take the rough with the smooth - we'll lose on the swings but gains on the roundabouts so to speak...

There has to be a two pronged approach here - get the charity in to secure the short term future, but start running as a business for the medium to long term. I believe that the charity element will be required for the foreseeable future running alongside but that cannot be the only show in town as there are limits to what charity can achieve.

Doubled my membership to LISA now.

THANKS DAVE

Mapleleyther I will keep everyone updated, I want true figures ....so Im waiting for Peter Bentham to get back to me with true figures, Ive had 4 today double their membership, so thats like having 4 new members.

Good - as I said I am prepared to quadruple my membership once I find out where we are. Thats like another three new members.

That sums things up pretty well ML , I don't want to fall out with anybody , we have few enough fans as it is , but the time for ' nicey,nicey , has gone , it's straight talking time , I will listen to anybodies suggestion as long as they have given them due thought , but if they haven't because they are not grasping the situation we are in , or they are peddling rumour or in some way trying to damage the club they claim to support , then I really haven't time for them

Mine and Wurzel's in the post today too.

Mine will be posted out today as soon as i get this bloody printer to work

Done and sent

PS i dont like printers

I will join LISA.


Steve/Lynda you have a pm.

Thanks guys. coming in thick and fast.

Mine will as soon as I can find a stamp!

As much as I can when I can which is very little at the moment but I'm still going to games.

I have decided not to use my season ticket again this season I will buy a ticket for each home match.

Can I have it at knockdown price Frank?!

I've just picked up 280 LISA forms to deliver with my weekly Leigh Reporter round



Doing my bit guys!

Won't part of that end up in the LSV coffers though?!?!? If you are feeling so philanthropic would it not be better to make a direct donation to LISA?

Very good gesture that Frank.

Probably about right, that - keep on using your season ticket and donate the ticket money to LISA.

OK I will do that. Sorry Kevster.

or at least pass on the ST to someone that doesn't go

frank , what was your occupation again ? , if you buy a ticket 20 % goes to HMRC

, 10 % to the LSV ,

Like your thinking Steve. So, what your saying is, if we all pay our £14/16 per game to Lisa instead (on top of the contributions we already make), boycott the home games and watch them on Blip TV the club will be better off.
