Right , dump the negatives , us by 10

On the beer already Mr Pike ?

Oh ye of little faith Budge

Not at all.....You think we'll only win by 10 points ! ha ha

I'm expecting it to take a couple of games to get back up to full speed before we beat Saints again , hence just the 2 scores mergin

Salford 18 Leigh 32

I've watched Salford this season.

They have a good pack and very fast backs. Their win against Hull FC says it all.

So in view of our currently depleted squad I can't see us winning by more than 30.

Who's picking the team? Derek or Jukeseys lot

Not a chance Starbug ...

Salford by 30 .... not negativity, realism.

Furthermore if by 30 then all I ask is better teamwork & tackling technique, smarter RL & the defensive effort evident over the 1st 6 games.

Not a slight against your prediction, just my view via response to your estimate you understand.

No worries , I fully understand reverse psychology

So that's why you used to write everything backwards then?!

Not everything , although I did get banned from the Salford board back in 03 for spending a full day doing it , the majority thought it funny and joined in , but the mods got upset

You did well to get a Salford Moderator to turn up!

They were like rocking-horse turd when our homegrown bell-ends were running the asylum. In fact, it's why most migrated to another forum.

As for Friday...

Well, on paper, it should be a Salford victory but with it being our local derby as such you never know. Form can go out of the window, although I believe your lot have got a dose of injuries? Hopefully be a decent game regardless.

The Salford board back then was much busier as many others were before the ' Facebook banter ' arrived , I was posting under the Red Dwarf nom de plume back then , so many thought I was a Willows resident

Quality

Bout a thousand years ago, played for Salford cos I wanted Leigh to be better than them - and they were. TODAY, Salford in great form----Leigh are NOT.
Salford by 30????

Looks a tough Easter fixture and our record away at Salford is dreadful, of course our home record to Wire was dreadful up to a few weeks ago and anything can happen in this league.
Give 100% and I'll be happy.

Tough fixture for both teams tbh. I believe we have another body back in Huaraki to come into contention for Friday. I'd probably go with

O'brien
Carney
Sau
Whelham
Johnson
Lui
Dobson
Tasi
Tomkins
Mossop
Jones
Murdoch Masila
Flanagan

Brining
Kopzcak
Huaraki
T. Carney

Heard ticket sales by your lot have been very good and can only hope the people of Salford can finally bothered to come out.

Bongser would never advocate that a fellow fellah fall off the proverbial wagon but, were you to do so, he recommends starting with bitter.



Bongser has not posted much lately as he is being out-loonied.

A good quality line up that & if Huaraki back then further boosted.

I get the impression that your attendances are on the rise & that Salfordians are slowly buying back into the club ?
Maybe there is a feel good factor returning with a better standard of product on the pitch & the obviously improved results that go with it.

I really don't fancy our chances at all.

Unfortunately I shall be missing my first match of the SL campaign on Friday as I head down to Christchurch tomorrow for Easter with family.

I have however timed my return to ensure I am back at LSV for the visit of Hull on Monday.

Harold,do you mean Christchurch, Pennington?

Gud on ya Harold. It doesn't mean you can't give us the final 17 on Friday before you go.

Sorry, I believe Derek is still pondering the 17 for this week.
