Personally i don't think comparisons with SL prices are as valid as they used to be. Outside of SL is now effectively becoming a different sport. Bradford got over 10000 ST holders with their 60 quid offer last season. If we offered them for that we still wouldn't get many more than 1000

Just worked out that my wife and I, having pledged 2 Bronze Memberships and 2 LISA ones, will be paying about £430 more than the concession tickets last season.

if another 323 people contributed that much extra, the debt would be wiped out.

Is this going to happen as I am defo down for a silver package! Anything that helps keep this great club alive then count me in!

Well we only need 322 now Alan because that is what I am doing.

Good on you Frank.

Felt it was more of a constructive way of 'donating' to the club, and showing solidarity with our Corporate Club, who are putting a heck of a lot of time and effort into LC - as well as money.

Where dp people stand on changing the amount they pay to LISA, I was going to up my £20 a month to £30 but if I join this Touchdown Club and join the silver package, I wouldnt pay both £30 and £20 to LISA? Surely LISA are going to see a drop in money unless I'm missing something.

£5 of the £30 is LISA membership not the whole 30.

So if I opt for silver do I pay £30 and still pay my existing £10 to LISA?

Up to you. £5 of the silver package goes to LISA. You could join and reduce your LISA contribution by a fiver.

Thanks for clarifying that frank.

That's my plan, I think.

Honest answer would be that the gold package is the only real value to me the other two are fancy season tickets at twice the cost of 2011.

Great news about the junior supporters club but equally as bad is the abandonment of teenagers. As Matt rightly points out 13-16 will probably determine whether you are going to be a leyther for life.

I was delighted hear Keith freer still has the vision to apply for a SL license in 2014, what I am struggling with who and how is going to lead us to it. I don't want to see us become a Batley playing in front of 1200 fans happy to be outside of SL.

Yeah I worded it a bit wrong, what I was trying to say was, that I don't mind giving £30 a month to Leigh/LISA....so I'm gonna have to reduce my LISA direct debit payment to maybe £5 or cancel it altogether.

I'd have loved to have gone 'Gold' but just cant justify the £50 a month all year round.

Jimmy if u do the silver one you get a lisa membership included for £30.

Apparently it is age 8/9 when most decide their sporting alliegences

But I bet it's not until 13/14 that it's really 'confirmed'.

Only going off what I was told , by someone who's business it is to know these things

I don't disagree with it as such Steve but I think there are certainly 'wavering' years between 9-13 that might come in to play before a kid becomes a fully fledged fan - there was a very worrying period when my older brother 'supported' the Pies when he was 10 (having watched Leigh prior to that) before the £10 Junior Centurions season tickets roped him in as a fully fledged Leyther.

Matt , I'd have free entrance for all under 16 s , or worse case scenario a £ 10 ST

But getting them in once in big numbers is still the hardest part

How many kids season tickets did we sell last year? Surly the aim is to sell more . We should do tours of the stadium for the kids... School trips and stuff like that.

We did , till the funding from the council stopped , and given these difficult times and wholesale cuts including jobs , it isn't hard to understand why

Re the touchdown club although I am a concession I will be joining. Now without wishing to be contraversial not all concession season ticket holders will be able to afford to join.

So what about a Pewter package' purely for concessions at a tenner a month ?

You talk some rot

what about aTin Package then?this is to raise cash , get yer hand in ya pocket , i know there is probably a mousetrap in there , but be brave , your turn on Tuesday for the Drinks owd fella.

I will be buying your Dannie a drink (on the understanding she gets me one back naturally)

but not you you big clown.

What have you against Clowns?

At least you will have your claws in your pocket then , im joining the Tin cLUB
