We got a 54 seater coach up for last years final, Plonk loner and me got all tickets bought through the club and the coach through LISA, there was about half who are none regulars, and as one of my regular suggestions is everyone in Cherry and White, it was compulsory on our coach and quite a few bought something from the club.

I don't know about losing money last year but I do remember Phil Coffey saying likewise after the 2006 NRC final victory against Hull KR.
One of the reasons given is that Leigh are only able keep a share of the gate receipts from final tickets purchased from the Leigh club....
There may be some truth in that, 'cos the 'glory-hunters' didn't turn up that day....all were predicting that Leigh were gonna get a 'tatering' from the all-conquering HKR. From what I remember, Leigh only sold just over 2k tickets - and from all that was said about how our '06 squad cost more than the SL one, maybe with win bonuses, etc it did end up costing 'em......which, because he didn't deliver the GF as well, cost Benson his job!!
