Whoever did put up the loot to give all the dinosaurs more Computer Keyboard work really should have thought the thing through. The moderates on here have to put up with more inane drivel for another 12 months now.

Early Bath,I did not no you were a moderate,so you are a fence sitter,so only your opinion counts.Sorry to inform you
that I did not pay the bill,no like a lot of people,I am finding It hard to justify, buying a season ticket.So like your good
self,and the other moderates,I can only guess.Could It have been our good friend from Sale,Mr Kennedy,or the council
or even Forever Reds,who knows,more so who cares.

Early Bath

About time they coffed up, maybe the loot came from Sale Sharks. Well Early Bath is this one of those 30 positives on your so called list. Can't wait for the other 29.

Nah was`nt me either,cost to much buying dinosaur stuff,like DI says i wonder what the other 29 benefits are EB.

It would be nice to know what the silent majority of our support,thinks who is right or wrong,
because let's have It right,that silent majority,do not post on here.would they think like you and the rest of the
moderates,I know quite at lot of fans,who don't post,they certainly do not agree with you good self.
We are losing fans fans,who are fed up,faster than we are gaining them,and to be fair you have come out with some
utter rubbish you self.watch for them splinters,from that fence your on.

Most of the silent majority think everyone who posts on here are d=#000000icks.

Not being argumentative but if gates are up how are we losing fans? It's a natural process to lose old fans and gain new ones.

HM RC presented the petition and we paid the bill, HMRC then asked for the petition to be withdrawn fairly common practice from HMRC.

No real story, bill only 50,,000

Not being argumentative but crowds are up due to an increase in away support.

But they are still up.

and guess what that is what brings in the money.

Surely people can't be happy relying on away support to boost our crowds?

If so then there really is no hope. The same number away fans from each club won't be in attendance next year due to a couple of factors:

1. The novelty factor of coming to a new stadium will have worn off.
2. The experience away fans seem to have had at the ground hasn't been brilliant, you only have to go on other teams boards to read this.

So what will we do next year then? Who will we rely on then?

Sale fans.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the 1,500 fans we're going to attract from them.

The 250,000 people a day who cross Barton Bridge.

Prepare yourselves guys in 3 years time we will be praying that we can secure a new tenancy with Swinton in the new Salford Community stadium where they have primacy of tenure.I just see no good ending to where we are.The irony being that the City of Salford Stadium will have a team from Cheshire and a 2nd team from Stretford in it

which is better than the Olympic stadium will have or Wembley, I note no teams are tenants at either

I am not, but a certain football team in another council built stadium were relying on that for years and without a sugar daddy would still be now.

Yes I am very worried for the future, and the thing that is going to bring people in is winning but also forming some attachment to Salford city reds which the majority of the city don't have.

Two good points Pev.

Winning will always be the big factor, but you hit the nail on the head when you said the people of Salford are generally uninterested in SCR. Maybe its football, maybe its the financial demographic of the area, who knows?

Totally irrelevant to Salford Rugby League Football Club. And I don't see the point in that post other than your hatred of City?




And if that's the case, we're fighting a losing a battle and we might as well call it a day now.

FWIW I think there is an interest in Salford for a successful rugby league team, it's just the lack of on field and off success in recent years that has knocked peoples confidence in Salford as a club. It it will take a few years of being a decent team to get that back, but there is interest out there not enough as we would like granted, but defiantly enough for us to be getting 8-10k on a regular basis with a good team.

They are generally uninterested in a team that has been consistently bad for 30+ years. I just do not accept there is such little interest in RL in Salford that we are incapable of doubling our support in the next few years. The potential number of people we could tap into is huge, but we don't.

Also a good point.

My thoughts on the subject is that Salford has a low number of hardcore fans and potentially a high number of floaters. Success would pull the part-timers in again, but success is a catch-22 for the likes of us that need more money from the turnstiles to compete. No success = no crowds. No crowds = no money. How can we break the cycle?

Thats true Butcher - remember the Wigan match a couple of years ago when we were eventually hammered but we brought a lot.

How anybody can put the blame on the people of Salford for the club being in the mess its in is having a laugh,you are really scrapping the barrel now,stay at the willows and we die a slow death,we`ve got to move to this all singing all dancing stadium,then we will be one of the elite teams in SL,full salary cap,full sponsorships and full stadium,well that seems to be working aye,like always or we get thats full is bull/hit,until this regime as gone then we are on that slippery sliding road to oblivion,its taken 30yrs to get here,no home to call our home,a lifeless stadium,depending on away support to bolster the attendance figures,and to cap it all off its the Salford people whos to blame,can you really blame them for not coming to a stadium that is miles away from home,a nightmare to get to,a team that ever hardly wins,oh,and £20 please.
