Just bought mine and our Ols today. Same seats as last year and I can't blinkin wait for it all to start.



Come On You Leeeeeeeeeeeeeigh.

Well we have to maximise revenue. To do so it makes sense for us to play our games' against sides where it will increase away support although sadly there are very few Championship sides with decent away followings.



Notwithstanding that' our "attractive" fixtures are invariably televised for free

on Premier Sports.



Don't think current Superleague clubs would put up with that. Do you ?

But they do Frank, when was the last Wigan v Saints , Saints v Wire games that weren't televised. Sky pick the best games because they pay to do so. The RFL tell us we have to play on THursday because Premier have a deal with them, that gives us nothing.

That's my point Lynda.



Championship clubs get nothing from the deal with Premier Sports. Superleague clubs get a few bob from Sky for the televising of their games

Views on here seem to be "if we play a few games on Friday I'm not renewing my season ticket because I like Sundays. Every day has its advantages and disadvantages, after moving to Sundays last year Hull FC have reverted to Friday nights, in part because they get few away fans at the KC and also because it is easier to sell corporate hospitality packages for a Friday night game.



When I went to the Stoop in August it was a Friday night, and after the game they had a band etc on in the bar after the game, which meant most fans stayed till past midnight. This could be a potential earner for the club if you have a few Friday night games, alongside the curry deal you did last year. Most people go straight home on a Sunday night (especially now Warrington buses stop running at 5ish) but with the above you could potentially have people in the stadium from 6-11 parting with their hard earned wonga.

Well that's a nice idea but Leigh RLFC do not make any money from bar takings and I doubt many would stay to pay over £3 a pint when they are able to buy ale far more cheaply in the pubs'some of which also have live music on Friday nights.

Do Leigh not get a cut of the money made by the LSV on match day?

As partners in the lsv i think they do take a cut of any profits.

LSV have to make a profit first though, Derek.

The problem with playing in a stadium owned by others, is that there is very little 'secondary spend' going to the club who rents the stadium. I assume this also applies to Salford, Halifax and other clubs in a similar situation, and is where the likes of Featherstone score heavily, when compared with Leigh. Featherstone own their stadium, so any revenue from selling within the stadium, is theirs.

So most do not like Friday nights including myself, whilst others do not like Sunday's



So...is there anyone against Saturday 6:30pm KO's during the warm summer months?



Barrow switched to this slot as their prefered slot a few seasons ago. They are yet to switch back. May be there is some evidence of success in that?

It would be my preference, after Sunday afternoon.
