never again today was an absolute and utter shambles 'communication at our club is non existent I'm afraid, I bought my tickets for the salford game before Christmas ,and then read on the website that we could use our tickets for the Wigan game,on arrival at the gate I was informed by a steward that I had to exchange it at the ticket office, but I said when I paid my lottery money in on Thursday I double checked with Christine and She said no problem ,can't help that He said I've been told to say that ,so off I went to join a few more hundred people to exchange it ,and then was told "anyone with a Salford ticket can go straight in, back I went to be told you need to change that for today's ticket, before finally being allowed in just in time for the kick off. Super League wer'e having a laugh ,never again

You are never going again because one turnstile operator didn't know that he could accept a Salford ticket for entry to the game? Really! No one can be that petty. Whoops I forgot about the mentality of some Leythers. Good riddance.

Is there the slightest chance that the next time you read one of my post's you could read it properly, digest it and then post your reply

stop being so mard. you got in didnt you!? some people arent happy unless theyre having a pop at the club. we just outplayed wigan, and have one of the best squads we have ever had, yet you want to complain because of a mix up in communication.

I absolutely give up the words booze up a Brewery in spring to mind some people just love being messed about the club is a joke

Yep, re-read the post again and I still can't understand why you've turned into victor meldrew. You got turned away by a turnstile operator twice because he didn't know you could use your Salford ticket. Why did you bother going in to watch the game if you were so offended by your treatment?

The point is why didn't the turnstile operator know that I could use my Salford ticket my post was about communication which is I am afraid sadly lacking at Leigh unprofessional is the word ,being turned away once O.k. but twice shouldn't happen

I thought this post was about our performance at Dewsbury today.

The turnstile operator may have been told but didn't listen. Have you any evidence of other turnstile operators turning people away or was it just this one? Any way still doesn't justify your dummy spit. This was a unique situation at the lsv as games won't get cancelled like the Salford one did. Seems like your just looking for reasons to moan.

I'd have said that your aiming your ire the wrong way anyway as surely the turnstiles and match day operations are the domain of the LSV and not the club?

That's exactly right. Pretty sure we pay the LSV to run those operations, stewarding, gate staff, etc.

Peawapp=Peawet!

get over it move on and pipe down.

My personal experience of the LSV today was excellent. They opened the south stand especially for me to store my trike safely in the ground & all the stewards we're great.

I sometimes despair at some of the cack posted on here.

Whilst I can sympathise at the frustration of being turned away at the turnstile, I cannot imagine why this would lead to a pop about the club or it's communication...

As far as I'm concerned communication from the club is the best it's ever been... Fan's forums, twitter, website, statements, match day programmes, direct mailing and maccas minutes keep me right up to date with goings on at the club.

I'd even go as far as to say our clubs communication is super league standard if not better.

Also isn't the idea of friendlies as much about the general staff getting back up to speed as well as the players?

Peawapp is right.

Communication between the ticket office and the turnstyle operators should be a given.

Had it happened to me I would have been annoyed too.

The OP needs to let Leigh know what went on so they can find out why the systems they had in place failed today (be it communication between Leigh and the LSV or the LSV and the Turnstile operators), we can't afford own goals being such a small club.
I'm sure the club would want it sorting so it doesn't happen again.

Grow up

Awesome post there Daryl, I don't think anyone has used that expression on here before. Well done for your excellent originality.

I am glad I am not alone in thinking I would equally have been irritated with that situation myself.

i was turned away from the turnstile with my salford ticket after being assured in the week it would be ok to use WITHOUT exchange. only to join the queue to exchange it and be told by a member of staff walking down the line and shouting out everyone with a salford ticket can go straight to the turnstile without exchange. on second attempt of entry i spoke to the head steward who said we needed to swap them and asked me to point out the member of staff telling every one not to swap them. i was stood with him when he confronted ticket office staff and it was clearly obvious to me and the steward nobody from leigh had informed either stewards or turnstile operators people could use salford tickets to gain entry. at this point the steward apologised to me then got on his radio to inform all his staff to allow salford tickets through the turnstiles. so i'm sorry peawapp is quite right the blame lies with the club for poor comunication between matchday stewards and turnstile staff how can the club expect to be treated as a professional outfit if they cant get basic matchday comunication right

No disrespect to peawapp but good to hear of a similar episode from another source - my advice would be to contact the club so that they're aware of the situation and can hopefully make sure such communications are improved (especially as it seems it might happen again if people have bought for the re-arranged Salford game).

i would imagine that the conversation i witnessed between steward and ticket office would be ok but never the less i have voiced concerns. with hope that they use today as a excercise on what happens with poor comunication and move on and improve from it

They should all quit. It's a disgraceful shambles that brings the whole game into disrepute.






Talk about over reacting....

Obviously a mistake has occurred. It shouldn't have and now we have to learn from it.

Yes, you have overreacted.
