eddie stays at leigh till the end of the year, then comes back for pre-season 'trials' to see if he is up to the standard after a year of playing again. thats my view!

congrats on the 100th post darren, i agree about the second bar area, but i think the reason R&W dynamite suggested this is because york and oxford are this season and real revenue could be missed out on R&WD any reply from graham rowley?

Who made you god ... or is that another debate .. he he   

well actually i'm self appointed, like george bush, and debate as we all know with him is as incoherant as mine!

This could sound silly but it could also do with someone approaching the club if you are serous ? You are assuming the club would welcome this idea ? maybe they have reasons to why they may not like the idea ?

Again I'm not poo pooing, just that I think it would be a nightmare to organise and from what limited things I know just not possible, but if people want to pursue it then so be and good luck to you.

agreed gaz, will be able to pop in on thurs and have a word with someone if the lub say flatly no then ok no worries but surely a few inquiries would not be un welcome

plastic cups are pennies, rileys for parking as i said, stewarding just requires man on the gate letting out and handing bar passes and man on the turnstile accepting passes back. then two on the front of the marquee, for games of this magnitude do we not need a police presense anyway? i'm sure theres a willing group who would man the bar for the half time and the pre match drinks. instead of poo pooing this we should look into it, with the grace of the club obviously.

UC i think you have been misreading realism for passion and ambition, which is why this thread has swelled to such a size

Yes I can see that finishing 17th after losing most of your games is infinitely more thrilling than an FA Cup run which ends up playing a top club in the 3rd round. I guess it's all about what you go to football for.

no need for that,

most people who follow this club are aware of our previous mis-spendings and realise we are lucky to be playing at this level, so come on look at this from the welfare of the club, finishing 17th IS infinitly more exciting than a third round game, it means we have confrence football at the club for another year meaning top quality derbys for us to go to on boxing day

trips to 15,000 seater stadiums,

talk of facilitating 1000 away fans,

all that excites me more than going brighton to lose 8-0, or chelsea to lose 6-1 why would it not,

seeing lewis chalmers coming on to become a top quality player, and having steve bush in the center or and lets be honest colin little upfront (even someone so  alty would have to leave if we went down)

all in all if we end this year in 17th i'll be happy because were still here not in the conf north. There are teams like, it would seem, like farsley who can get in better players at a lower level due to money, so we are doing extremely well.

oh and UC i go to football because i support a club i love and would love at any level be it northwest counties or confrence and above one day (god willing). not for a oneoff game against the big boys

you would be suprised jimmy, if we can garantee a good supply of beer and some food like dynamite mentioned then we could be on to a real winner esp if for the oxford game the weather is good, sale have an outrageously priced 'champions village' which is full to bursting every week plus if we offer the chance for york/oxford fans to mingle with alty fans and to congregate together before the game.
