Henry the thought of you running to the outside loo with the cat flap of your long johns open is not a pretty one.

No need it's piped direct to RFL headquarters mate

Quite right - the BBC were earlier describing the game at Saints, as a 'sell-out'.



Got to say, I've been well impressed with the World Cup attendances, so far.

Around 10,000 tickets sold according to the club

I have to say the LSV looked superb last night and I hope that one day soon I can see us play to a crowd like that. On bommy neet n all.

I reckon at least two thirds of that crowd last night was current/potential Leigh supporters.......the work of the BOD now is to turn that latent support into bums on seats!!



A hell of a lot now rests on the decisions taken by the RFL and the 'gang of six' - it would be ironic, after hosting what looks like being the most successful RL World Cup ever, that the choices made could potentially see the death knell of the sport in this country!!

Walt, how do you arrive at the 2/3rds figure for potential leythers?

A guess!!

- but based on the numbers of replica shirts, scarves, hats, accents, etc



The other games I've attended (NZ v Samoa at HJ & Fiji v Ireland at Spotland) were also heavily supported by the locals......especially the Fijian locals in Rochdale!!





I think it would be safe to say that well over half those in attendance last night came from Leigh Centurions 'catchment' area - hopefully the RFL will release sales information, so we can see what the breakdown of 'local' v 'travelling' support was.....they were quite happy to do it when 'proving' how big the Welsh support was for Millenium Magic!!

Hopefully the club are asking the RFL for those details ( subject to the usual data protection etc) as there's ready made

list ripe for some targeted marketing.

I listened to the game on the radio and it sounded like a great night in the clubs history.

It was a night the ground gained a bit of history, and created a new great memory, hope it will be one of many more memorable night/ days in the future of the LSV .

We all have many memories we associate with Hilton Park, this will be one remembered from people of the town for many a year.

Well done all who made the occasion what is was.

Re the data listen to what Steve Openshaw says in his interview on the players meeting video on LC TV.

Lovely bloke is Steve

Leigh through and hrough
