been trying to read all the blogs reference helping linda on sunday but lost complete what everything is abouit. sounds like bragging rights are at issue.
hoever is everyone aware that on Sunday KICK OFF `12-45 The RESERVE TEAM PLAY AGAINST DEWSBURY RESERVES in what shouild be a good game. Help linda please but get behind this team to help them towards the GRAND FINAL.Now back to Emerdale.

Just to let everyone know how things went, I collected 63 forms at the game today, some of which were for more then the "normal" £5.
Add that to the numerous ones weve had back already, I would say were over 300 members already without all the forms back in as yet, in fact, only a small percentage back in.
Thanks to all those who turned up to help, we worked very hard, most fans took form s and a lot are ringing details to me, some I have to ring too.
What surprised me was there was a lot who didnt know what LISA was and what did concern us was the numbers of fans who are oblivious to all of whats been going on, including Arthur Leaving etc.

I think the CLUB need to get the message accross stronger about how important it is for all our fans to help out in whatever way they can financially.

Apologies from my old man who couldn't make it today to help due to ill health.

Glad things went quite well, I'm going to fill in my form and get it back to you ASAP.

trouble is Lynda is how? its been on TV, National trade and local press and on the radio there isn't that much they can do it's always hard to put a 'begging bowl' out as there are so many these days people become blase about it all that or they walk about in planet Zod all week.

Yeah but when I said one said, they get enough of my money just coming here, theyre not having any more. Which I understand, so I said, I do understand but do you know how serious it is?
They replied he still wouldn't give the CLub any more with them fools on charge. This was an elderly man.

like I said planet Zod

No worries Michael.

After today, I am convinced this must be the case for 50% of Leigh Centurion supporters or they dont listen to the local radio or watch local news on a regular basis, have the internet or dont recieve a local paper, or know a friend who knows about the situation the club unfortunately finds itself in



I appreciate that things are hard for everyone and our money can only go so far, however, for those who like a pre match drink and cant afford to join lisa AND want to continue spending their hard earned £19 every 2 weeks or so during the season on a ticket and a couple of pints why not spend £16.50, miss a pint every 2 weeks and spend the £5 on Lisa. This means they are contributing to helping secure the future of their club so they can continue enjoying spending their £16.50 every 2 weeks in season.

I guess it is still up to us who know to spread the word and continue to try to boost the membership

I picked up a form on entering the ground, I`ve just filled it in and will post it tomorrow.

We did really well I thought, and we need to regroup and do the same again, as I think theyll be at least another 500-1000 there next week, so plenty more "victims" to collar.

I'll pop round later this week and fill one in

Great Bart and hats of to you any many others who did the same. If half those given out turn into memberships then that would be fantastic and well worth the effort. To be honest to gain a handful of extra members from the effort is worthwhile and thanks to all who took the time to listen and at least take a form.

I`ve even done it for £10, I`ll be lost with no Leyth to watch.

Every Leyther who comes on this board must now realise why if they can afford it they need to join LISA.

We are in trouble and I urge anyone who cares' and knows a fan' or a lapsed one and indeed anyone who does not use this site to spread the word.

When we get 75 % of our average home gate contributing the equivalant of 17p per day we might find we can keep our best players. Now double that to 34p a day and surely I do not have to tell you we would.

Brilliantly put Frank. The price of a sun newspaper a day. Read the sun or keep Leyth going????

Exactly, well put, I was amazed though, how many didn't know our predicument.
Needs more press, I will see what can be done when I meet up with Trevor in the next couple of days .

My thanks to everyone who turned out today to help our club and everyone who has or going to join LISA. As a distant fan i am very happy that we have such dedicated fans willing to give back in time and money to our club


Just got back off my hols and will be at the bank Tuesday to get a UK money order to join.

I suspect many people today don't want to admit that they know the situation so they can act all surprised and say..oh sorry I didn't bring my bank details with me...oh, now I know let me think about what I can do. I cannot otherwise explain how they don't know.

I've got an idea Lynda i'll send to Trevor Barton now. Why not send an appeal along with a downloadable LISA application form to everyone on the mailing list? Then when we all recieve the e-mail we can forward it on to everyone in our contacts who might want to help.

That a good idea, Ill mention it when I have my meeting with Trevor. Thanks Johnny

3 out of our group of 4 have signed up including myself.

Not a bad average that, well done to all concerned and long live Leigh Rugby

To be honest, not many ignored us yesterday, most knew what we was doing and some even bought filled in forms with them, we will be there again bugging you all again SUNDAY, as the club really do need all the help they can get, right now.

Did you get mine off my Dad? How does it work do I have to manually set the standing order up? Or does it go out like a Direct Debit?

No she didn't. Sorry l left it on my desk at work. Taking it to Lynda on Tuesday and i think its a direct debit not a standing order

Useless.
