Just seen on Leigh's facebook banter page that the first four coaches next week will be free of charge. If true then this is brilliant news and we should really spread the word and take a massive following. We always take a few to Fev and this year should be no different with the way the lads are playing. The BOD are doing all they can to get supporters back watching Leigh so lets spread the word and get down to Fev next week, they may even give us that new stand to ourselves if we take enough?

Well I run the coaches and it's first I've heard about it , I haven't booked four !!!!

Derek Beaumont- good call we will be subsidising travel to fev. Its pay back time. We ask you respond we listen and deliver you make it work. Two way street and communication is key. We want to keep building on this momentum you guys are creating. Its invaluable so although we get no income from going fev I believe that you guys are as I have said our 18th man which gives us an edge and I am happy to shell out to help get our 18th man there! 1st four coaches will be provided FOC by our travel sponsor Park Leisure! Get your tickets early, they will be available to LISA Members and season ticket holders first. If there are any available after that then it will go on a first come first served basis! More details of how to take advantage to follow tomorrow

Derek has just said on facebook free coaches next week. Speak to him and spread the word!

Do you think you will be able to get more coaches Lynda? I hope Derek hasn't jumped the gun by saying that, it will be great if we can though

It's on twitter too. Derek Beaumont and park leisure will pay for the first four, andy mazey has said he will pay for the 5th and 6th too

Seems a little strange that we would help Featherstone to make a load of money when its not even a shared gate like it was today.

Would it not be better to wait and see who we draw in the next round of the cup and if drawn away, target that with free or subsidised travel instead?

Just an observation.

You wont get the new stand to yourself - its not finished

It will be like last season where everyone is intermingled or you are given part of the community stand again

Agree we should boycott the game. Less fans less money for Fev. With Donny looking like they are probably the 2nd best team in this league, it would mean Fev missing out on the big payoff for finishing in the top two and Mr Probiz packing his bags. Mwaaa aagh!!!

Fantastic gesture by the BOM and it would give the lads a huge boost in a vital game.
This team deserves supporting in numbers be it home or away, cup or league.

I've spoke to Derek and I'll see how many coaches we can get . Free of charge to Lisa members first then season ticket holders is going to make it a bit awkward but I'll have. Think on it tonight .

I hope we get a lot of fans supporting the lads as they deserve it but a crazy decision when we get sweet nothing from Featherstone for all the additional fans we will bring on the coach (and pay for)

I hope this does not restrict us doing something similar in the cup if we are drawn away in the last 8.

Its a very sensible decision. This is a true 6 pointer with Fev our main rivals to finish in the top 2. If a big Leigh travelling support can make the difference to pull off a win, the investment will pay itself back a hundred times over.

The Challenge Cup is nothing but a nice bonus. If we get drawn to one of the big clubs away we are in all likelihood going to get beat, even if we take 10,000.

This is what I like about DB..big picture thinking.

Lynda, please ensure that they don't hire that yellow double decker service bus.
Keep it simple ie pick up LSV only. If they are sponsored then try Grayway, Olympia etc as well as Trafalgar - she struggles to get us 2. We don't need to keep relying on them.

Thanks Derek I was going in the car with 3 other fans but I will take your kind offer up, we need a massive support in Fev because this is one game we must win.

How do we tell people that's already booked its only LSV and we have to pick up in atherton I'm not making the regulars from atherton come all te way to Leigh when we go through atherton anyway !

Fair enough - just a suggestion to make life easier.

Also personally I wouldn't go through Atherton if I was going from the LSV to Yorkshire. East Lancs & M60 - simples.

Well we will not make our regulars come out of the way , and I'll be only getting one to stop at atherton

It just makes life easy for everyone one pick up point it's hardly the other side of the world atherton is it .bet there is only a handful comes from atherton anyway .

We always go that way go there s no problem is there !
Anyway thanks or all the advice but that's what's happening .

Could you not book one of the coaches from Atherton if there’s enough go from there, or pick up in Atherton first, and go to LSV to fill up.

Great gesture by the BOM.








ps any chance of one dropping me an mrs glow off at the airport?

No sod off on your jollies

Whatever gets sorted please don't try that convoy again as per the NRC final, best idea as suggested above would be to have a coach start at Atherton and come into the LSV to top up, then straight onto lancs and m62

A question to the BOM, have you spoken to Fev with regards parking at PO road?
