Profit margins are going to drop further when the new pub/restaurant opens, Greene King sell good quality beer and decent food, the stadium doesn't.

I'd expect they will need to urgently look at what they sell and the price that they charge for it sooner rather than later.

I am very surprised that the doc hasn't made more of a play too build and operate a bar/hotel or some other form of retail outlet on the Barton site.

Yes competition can only be a good thing. The SMC have had a free rein to charge what they want. Maybe MK should consider talking with Greene King about hospitality packages?

Interesting point that, surely MK could have built his own pub/restaurant facility and financed it through the club. At least that way all revenue goes back into the club.

What I would be interested in knowing is if Salford and Sale pay the same rates for the stadium rental?

Yes most NRL teams have what they call a Leagues club separate from the stadium. Marwan could consider opening a Red Devils Leagues club at the Trafford Centre. Bar, restaurant and merchandise?

If that's the case, we've been lied to heavily by all involved parties and the info from BartonFlyer above must be one hell of a cover up.

You want too borrow the tin helmet?

Naah, it'll be reet, I've got a couple of Gatling Guns lined up ready and waiting.

No you need the tin foil helmet, without people can read your minds

And then there's what the freaky aliens can do, those people from Leigh are weird

"Greene King sell good quality beer"

























there has been a suggestion that their IPa be prosecuted under Trade Descriptions as it does not fit any modern or historic definition of IPA.

NO THEY DO NOT : it's distinctly average.

I'm sure it will all come out in the wash!

I detect a theme here...

LIST 1.
When we start winning, the crowds will come.
When the road's finished, the crowds will come.
When the infrastructure around the Stadium is complete, the crowds will come.
When a community pops-up around the Stadium, the crowds will come.
When we get another new stadium, the crowds will come.
When we go on the road, the crowds will come.

Previous to these we had...

LIST 2.
When we get a new stadium, the crowds will come.
When we get a competitive team, the crowds will come.
When we go to Fridays/Sundays, the crowds will come.

The crowds have not come.

Now, who's willing to bet that the excuses/reasons listed in the first list wont turn out like the excuses/reasons in the second list?

Do you think we just have to battle it out where we are and do it right off the pitch combined with consistent improvement on it? I'm beginning to think so. Every quick fix reason we're given turns out to not be true. There's certainly no evidence that any of the reasons we all allude to will actually be right.

Most of these are casinos and that's how they make most of their funds.....sound familier along with the hot tubs

I'm fairly sure his dad made a load of money, after they fled as refugees to kuwait.
That's what he said at "the evening with marwan"

You can add a few more to list 2 Butcher.

When we get rid of Tarry and Simms etc, etc
When we improve our marketing and communication.
When we stop giving away complimentary tickets.
When we start working closer with local amateur clubs.
When we stop signing old players.
When we speculate and spend more money on better players.

Whether we like it or not, Salford Red Devils is an extremely hard sell to the vast majority of the Salford public but we should never stop trying or believing. You could say the club has tried almost everything now apart from abducting people off the streets, but the one missing thing has been a successful team. For instance, every other club in superleague has been to Wembley at least 10 years after we last played there. Plus 6 other clubs not even in SL now.

Yes we have tried all but one of those listed.The one we haven't done is win matches on a consistent basis.When Salford was a top club the crowds were pretty consistently good.

Yep, it's now time for more foreigners like me to join the fight, not English, let alone Salfordian.. but really passionate about "are" club!!

Just a pity that most of the newbies I bring are from that principality north of Carlisle, however, a few do keep coming back, so we must be offering something right if folks make the pilgrimage from God's Country occasionally.... The issues I have are with NW newbies.. they come, enjoy, but hardly ever want to come back as they don't understand RL - don't make no sense...

Jocks (in general) are alien to RL but once they watch it, fully understand

Are Kids are from the RL heartlands, but many after watching it are still baffled as to what they've just witnessed and don't come back..





Northerners (English ones) are not very bright

Did anyone see the League Express letters section this week? 3 letters written in all about our attendances. Some interesting claims and points as well.

What were your three pseudonyms?

Tit,
Tossa,
Tw@,

Or Barker possibly.

Sorry.

Or

Barker

Possibly

I can't wait for the moment it does.

Is this another one for my list?

All the answers will arrive...eventually. Like our hordes of stay away support?
