Sorry Mr C posts overlaped

Id still like to know your opinion on how this affects the financies of the club and are you getting what you thought you signed for from the LSV or would you rather stay at Grasmere St and pay the bills you could manage?

Im not pleased

just to let you know , LSV is a company set up by wigan council to run the lsv . at our meetings they (lsv ) never make a decision , the person who makes them is kevin lawson the councils solicitor, maybe the council should run it themselves , two years ago we were told a meeting between all partners would be held and one person from each organization would sit on the lsv board. this as not happened in two years so the divide and conquer idea is true

is the hotel happy
is the college happy
are the harriers happy
are centurions happy
are leigh east happy
the swimming baths and gym are not partners
are genesis happy




if everyone is happy , thats fine , but i dont know who is happy
i dont even know who all the partners are

Speaking on behalf of Leigh Athletic F.C..............WE ARE FAR FROM HAPPY!!!!!!!..........IN FACT TOTALLY P****D OFF!!!!!!!!!

For good reasons I suppose, I reckon the developer who paid for (yes, them, not the Council) the vast majority of LSV had to provide the 'community facilites' before they had their day in the sunshine with the other stuff.

I suspect the current economic climate may have delayed that.

So these community facilites for the community partners, paid for in large by a private developer are then run by LSV who then wallops what turns out to be community individuals for a lot more than what they were paying previously.

I run my own business and as such due to the current economic climate i have had to " cut my cloth to suit " not wallop all my customers. If i did this, then it would be the demise of my business. However the L.S.V thinks that this is the way forward.......FOOLS THE BLOODY LOT OF THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry AD but the clubs in question sold their rights and their soul for a combined total of about £ 3, 000,000 plus to LSV and the dream that came with it and all for nothing


LSV's where's the money !!!!!!!!!!!!

i have put the question to the people that matter about a month ago and this is what i said

Leigh east love being at our new facility we are very proud of it , but we cant afford it . so give us the money you claimed from sport england in our name approx 900, 000 give us a piece of land and we will go , that will give you lot back what you have always wanted . our club !!. Simon and James know that i will always speak my mind and that means not keeping things in shop . now you know my views , we have had 27 meetings with the lsv and council and still we have not signed our lease, if we had signed two years ago Leigh east would not be in existence now......FACT

In my opinion the only way to sort this mess out is for all partners to sit round the table with the council and the L.S.V. The meeting should be attended by Andy Burnham.
Leigh Athletic would certainly welcome this.

Mr Chairman that's shocking for you - and all the other partners. I truly hope you manage to get it all sorted - the LSV management should be put against a wall and shot. And where the hell is Andy Burnham - why isn't he demanding they all sit around a table to sort this mess out?

Andy Burnham was invited by Leigh Athletic, via his secretary, to attend a match day. Confirmation was made by his secretary that he would attend.
Guess what? No show.
That's Andys commitment as far as we are concerned.
