Who exactly are you fighting though?
It's Richo that wants to move.
Are we starting another petition to throw out the last petition?
It's a petitionathon.

Hey mate - I understand Richo's financial move, but that doesn't reflect on the fans especially the fans of Leichhardt. All I am looking out for is at least 1 game a year at a newly renovated Leichhardt to showcase what its got when its done up!

I have yet to start a petition as I am a bit like you and think there are too many petitions in this world, but I am working with local councillors to promote the fans of Leichhardt and we will see what we can do to save this historic ground.
 
Even as an old Wests fan always loved going to LO to watch the battles with Balmain & was even more stoked when we merged so I could attend LO regularly. I will sign the petition however I think it will be in vain. I think LO is gone unfortunately which pains many of us.

Good luck to you, but after watching Richo on the podcast with James Graham I can't see him changing from the path he's set on.

Renovate a sports stadium for 1 game a year?
As long as it’s not with my $80 of membership money. Sorry, but if the Government wanna pay for it then ok. Otherwise letting it go might be a good thing, it might make us focus on a home for once.
My first game there was with one of Mums assholes that use to like to flog kids. The asshole was a Tigers fan and my Fam is Magpies. It was about 10-7 at halftime Tigers way and all I could hear was this asshole farting on about how good the tigers are. Magpies won 15-10 I think. It was a fun first day for me at LO. I would have paid the price in the end.

I went there as a kid with my old man. Him and my brothers were Tigers supporters but I was a Magpie. If the Tigers were down by 2 points at half time my dad would want to go home because "there's no way they can win". We'd have to talk him into staying. I still laugh with my brothers about it

Last time I was there, i was standing 10 feet away from the Parramatta Jesus. We racked up a score, and he copped it deluxe. “Show us a miracle Jesus!!!”

You've been talking very matter afactly on here...
It's not over by any stretch of the imagination lol.
He recorded it 2 weeks b4 our game at Leichhardt —
I think he's forcing their hands. NRL want a piece
too. Balmain leagues on Victoria Rd. Plus the shops
& apartments with Leichhardt pumping, it's enticing

I'm just presuming he's an honest bloke who speaks the truth.
My bad if I'm wrong.

TP no need 2 apologise bro, we might be all wrong..
this saga with Leichhardt has been ongoing 4 years.
It's not over yet, won't be for a while (2026). Any
plans hence forth are probably contingent on results
too moving forward. Leaving Leichhardt is absurd

It has been going on for years

One of the first was the "Stop the Rot" campaign around 2004.
A very young @Kul I think was involved also among others long gone

You would think some of the business owners in the precinct would get behind the campaign. They were all overflowing with footy jerseys on Saturday afternoon.

He presented his strategic plan today so I guess we'll see what the future holds very shortly..
I really don't care if we play on the moon if it progresses the club and makes us the powerhouse we should be.
 
I’m going to start a Go Fund Me Page for the Tigers. Let’s see what we can rack up? Imagine you get Harry involved, Anthony Wiggle and da boyz. We can come up with the cash.

Article in the paper saying the NRL might acquire it tomorrow. If govt’s can’t afford to keep it in shape hand it over to the NRL.
