Oh yeah I know that Dave (doesn't bother me either way as I've already bought my ticket, like); just saying that there is no reason why the West/East/South can't have cash turnstiles as well, even when it is reserved seating.

West and East are all but full.
I think the cash turnstyles on the North are simply because no ticket is required for sitting.

I believe North and South still have a way to go yet before being filled.

do you want to try that again dave

Lol I meant no ticket is required for sitting, as you stand up in the North stand....

Again though get there early if you can!

WBK gonna be strange not having you around today!

What a beautiful day to watch rugby. I'm really looking forward to it .

Hope we get loads more turning up to pay on the day.

Come on England!!!!!

Even if it doesn't end up a 'lock out' - I reckon a crowd around 7k could be classed as a result, for a "meaningless fixture", and considering the number of other excuses that are being spouted by the 'stay-aways'!!

Do we have a running total as at close of play yesterday? Andy posted 6,300 and summat on Wednesday.....and I've bought 2 since then!!



See you all there......and if JTL comes through with my scarves, We'll give you all a twirl!!





WMFC & Walt Jnr.

7K will be a great crowd considering the 3 times SL champions kick off at the same and 25 minutes after this game ends, Englands world cup campaign begins!! So 7K is a miracle!

How many from Quins and Leeds would have turned up really tho? And how many Leeds fans are making trip down to London?
I think anything less than 10 thou isn't a success. We will have loads of empty spaces on live TV for a international game, and we are supposed to be a RL town surrounded by SL clubs.
A sell out would have seen us being touted for more events like this.

Heard 2 rumours last night , one of them was that 9,000 tickets had been sold and the other one was that it was a sell out . Paahhhh probably just rumours , will be closest to a sell out seen there yet though . Looking forward to it

Get real,considerring all the other events on today and the fact that the RFL did not cancel SL games anywhere near 7000 is excellent.You have to realize lots of Leigh fans will be going to 3 games in 6 days thats a big financial commitment.The club have been praised by the RFL for what we have done,they love the training facilities and are very impressed with the number of Tickets sold locally.This will not harm our chances of getting other big games.

What time do you reckon we should turn up for parking was thinking about 3

You make your excuses for them if you want

How many will seriously go to Batley tomoz? 500-600?
So you have a tenner for England, tenner for Batley on Thursday = 20 quid, hardly financially ruining. But to be fair it looks like take up from Leigh fans isn't so bad.
As for our chances of staging more, maybe you are probably right but remember we have been praised about our ground before by RFL - didn't help us stage SL fixtures did it ?



To ease the financial burden for 1 Leyther anyway - I have a spare ticket for East Stand, decent view etc free for anyone that can meet me in Boars Head between 3-4pm to pick it up. PM me if interested.
Ticket now taken.

Well I do not disagree with you all the time so I would just like to agree with you on this. How can RL be taken seriously if England only attract 7000 in the Rugby League heartland.

What Lager do you have on inside the ground (not Carlsberg please)?

No its just normal carlsberg.......

well that was an enjoyable afternoon. a few of the leigh supporters embarresed themselves with their "we hate this and that" chants and the flipping flute song again.
reminder me who we was supposed to be supporting today?



hang your heads in shame

your right.we had the letters in the rlx this week and the morons chanting tonight

the stewards should get off their backsides and chuck em out.we dont want you and dont need you

I see youre still 30 years behind everyone else! Well that fecked any chance of you lot getting any internationals again. Why spend all game singing anti-Wigan bile? Even SKY picked up on it, well done my six fingered friends.

freedom of speech you crust munching faggot

Wish Sam Tomkins was playing for us at Batley.

well well well, im actually in Kos and for those non leythers who are being a bit daft thats in Greece.

Obviously i did not attend tonight, but i had to reply by saying who are these people who come to Leigh and decide to slag off the original and loyal home fans...

i hope it was a good night for all and the attendance wasnt too bad.

listen guys from SL if you didnt enjoy your time in leigh then its simples dont come back.

see the rest of the guys at Batley tomoro upon my return

Get over yourself .........

Its just that when we have international in Wigan we couldn't be bothered/d/just don't care about a small estate in Wigan enough to sing about it, I mean.....

Small town in Wigan
and
A bus stop in Wigan
youre just a bus stop in Wigan

would just be bizarre wouldn't it?

Seeing as youre never going to get an international again or ever get into SL maybe Andy Burnham could hold a few more concerts there and charge for each finger of everyone that attends? Just a thought. It would bring in 12 times the amount of gate reciepts.
