Seems we are well over 1000 sold, which is considerably more than last seasons final total, 50%, and we traditionally sell almost as many after Christmas to the season starting - we don't do the early birds others do - Brilliant news and it looks like the town is backing the dream

Lets break 2000 come Bradford!!!

Have a great Christmas everyone, Health and Happiness for the New Year

Brilliant it looks like it's going to be a great season folks.

Lots of kids and concessions in there though mate and not enough adults yet given what the club have done this last year or so.

Both tropies won, full time squad, fought off demands for our top players, lowered the age of the squad, signed a world famous Fuifui, made kids free entrance, and done interest free credit on the season tickets. Not much more to be done with the budget we've set.

We have a superb hardcore of loyal fans, we now need the rest of town to show the sport that Leigh wants Super League rugby.

Well I am hopefull that season tickets sales double before the season starts.

I said early last season we had the best team I had seen since I started watching in 1956 and a lot did not agree with my opinion.

This season our squad is even stronger' P & R is back' we are full time and so I think we are in for a real treat and' the teams performance will get people back in numbers.

I' like every other Leyther can't wait for the season to start

Not sure if this has been discussed before so I apologise if it has. I really want to support the club and show some sort of commitment for next season. I know other clubs have offered half season tickets which would help people like me who are unable to attend all home games. I would certainly get a half season ticket which could offer half the games of a full ticket then I would switch to paying for tickets if I attend more games.
I understand it would probably cost a little more but like I said earlier, I just want to support the club and show commitment. I imagine it is not so easy to sort with the electronic tickets but that shouldn't stop us from doing it. I am sure I am not the only person this would benefit.
Best wishes and a merry Christmas to you all, and thanks for keeping me updated and entertained for the past year

AD, we have to accept that we have a very loyal concession fan base who have seen better times and have LRLFC in the veins from a young age. We have a new fan base growing, the ones who dont know LRLFC as a serious club but have enjoyed the past year or two, these take a bit longer to mature from an occasional game to season ticket but they will.

Hope to attend most home matches this year but just not financially practical to get a ST, would definatly have bought a 5/6/7 match book of tickets if available

My present to my Dad this year is a season ticket. He likely won't be able to make every game but he will make most of them. Win-win. My Dad gets a great present, Leigh get up front funds, and I get to have someone I love shout on the team he and I have spent so many happy (though some frustrating

) years watching.
Merry Christmas Leythers
2015 is the year we go back where we belong

Good to hear...your hats have been missed

I know someone I've been trying to convince to get a season ticket the last 2 years, he's always been umming and ahhing but again has decided he won't be able to get to enough games to make it worth while. He'd probably be interested in something like this or say 10 tickets with slightly less than the full season ticket discount to be used whenever. Remember us trying something like that a while ago, don't know how it went.

Think this should be offered after the first match so people who came and enjoyed can buy a part season ticket 10 match ticket books would be. Success I think

I agree we should be getting more and think nearer the time we will although I thin k we'll do well on Pay on the day next season.
Is it free for kids next season or do you mean free ST if bought with an adult one?
Was going to get a Child ST for £30.00 but if its likely to be free I'll spend the money at the club on something else.

You can get a form from the office for the Junior Centurions (ie. Under 16's) which is free and includes a season ticket.
re: parts season tickets, 10 game tickets etc. it seems to me getting very messy and unmanageable as the tickets are usually only shown at the game and never scanned anyway. Maybe a Half Season Ticket halfway through the season, otherwise just pay on the day as you don't save that much anyway, it's just showing your commitment early if you can make most games plus you can pick your seat.
And for those who can't read the sticker on the seats, "Reserved for Season Ticket Holder", means it's Reserved for a Season Ticket Holder.

Rather than an actual single ST, a book of real tickets, but usable at any game?

Any 'part' season ticket should be a higher pro rata price than the full season tickets IMHO - is there much room for movement working along those lines?


A more practical middle ground would be vouchers that would need to be exchanged at the ticket office for a ticket for that particular game.

If you did a 6 gamer who would bet against 4 of the 6 being London, Bradford, Fax. Fev

So the club sells 6 tickets instead of 4 ? , disaster

A minimal saving Matt, similar to the pre purchase we've done before

Which requires queuing pre match, which is one of the points of buying them

My point is that the full season tickets already have something of a minimal saving.

I'd also say that any new supporters are likely to be much easier to educate to actually buy tickets in advance or at least turn up earlier - if we want to become a big club, then it's time we started acting like it instead of pandering to the 'five to three' culture. Don't like queuing; buy a season ticket or turn up earlier, just as you do at any other sporting event, concert and the like.

More than a £ 1 saving though

' Educate '? We want them to come and enjoy themselves

' Big Club '? , you mean like Warrington?

Single ' Events ' only require 1 purchase

But buying six non-specific match tickets wouldn't be a single event, would it?

No, so why did you compare it?

Because it was you that mentioned it.

Quite frankly I can't be bothered typing out the full logistics issue as we've been through this before, but the fact is if we're expecting decent crowds then the club will be in hot water if non-specific 'tickets' are to be accepted on the turnstiles. That was why I suggested a voucher system so that all entrance requirements can be fulfilled.

If the main object of the exercise is to get people to feel 'part' of the club without shelling out for a full season ticket while still remaining a slight financial benefit, then I would suggest a membership scheme where an individual can pay c£5 and save, for example, a quid per home game (one discount per membership). This then allows these people to save a few quid over the season without getting a better deal than ST holders, while also providing much needed data capture for these types of supporters who are no doubt completely 'missing' from any previous databases. Yes, it means having to buy a ticket each time you wish to attend, but short of investing in a 'proper' turnstile and ticketing system whereby said membership cards can be activated for each game purchased there's not much way around it, though I would suggest having individual matches on sale as early as possible.

For a stadium that is so fantastic in most respects it does seem that the ticketing and turn style arrangements have been left rather half d.

It's simple, as with most modern stadia, you can't get in without a ticket. Nothing half d about it.
