Quote ="John Gilbert Reds"I genuinely feel sorry Cas, whilst I'm over the moon we've signed Rangi who I rate just behind Sam Tomkins as the best in Super League, I can't help but have some sympathy with your fans. We know better than anyone what it's like, over the years we've lost Robinson, Hodgson, Coley, Myler, Turner, Ratchford, Moon, Holdsworth, M.Smith etc to bigger clubs who have more money than us to throw around.
I've seen the comments on your other Cas forum and they're nothing short of disgusting, particularly the ones which are offensive and disrespectful towards Dr Koukash but I know that represents only a minority.
All the best for next season, hopefully you can avoid relegation and use the Chase money well.'"
With Westerman, Lynch, Arundel, Manu, Godwin, Shenton (granted he is now back), Brough, Platt... I could go on and on... oh we know the feeling all too well. As I mentioned in another thread, best of luck next year. More than anything I hope it gets fans through the turnstyles. That is what Salford will need even more than silverware. And in general the game needs to be better attended across the board. Otherwise moneymen like Koukash will disappear and leave clubs immeasurably worse than they were before. We only need to cast our eyes down south to see what can happen if money is injected into a club and attendances fail to improve.
