I am mearly commenting on the quality of the player. I just don't think he is very good and it is frustrating when you look at the size of him. Hope it works out for you guys but I was surprised he wasn't released in the off season tbh as he may have 1 good game a year which isn't enough. In relation to Salford need to hold onto everyone.... why? This is an opportunity to clear the deadwood, I would rather take a chance on a cheaper young front rower from the lower levels.

Good luck to the lad. He's young for a prop and fingers crossed he'll improve.

That's Nas, Scruton, Sidlow, Evans and we're presuming Langley at prop.

Beer is the root of all my problems, ironically it solves them too Homer Simpson that is:

We all say that about players who choose to move on. We pick out there bad points and emphasise them. Sykes was an exception tho eusa_whistle.gif

Cos you are she-ite and need all you can get?

You guys are struggling for fans and money, I hardly see how replacing the likes of Moon, Holdsworth, Smith, Sidlow etc with a bunch of lower league unknowns is going to attract more fans?

We were "lucky" during our disaster of last season in the fact that we have a decent solid fanbase which sadly Salford do not have. Two months of 3000 or less crowds and you are fecked.

Sidlow doesn't fall into the same category as the other names mentioned, they were the ones we should have held onto if possible. Sidlow isn't top 8 standard and is one of a lot os the players int he squad who is mearly good enough for us to finish 10/11th every year.btw love the sympathy, I will have part of the £500,000 I donated back please!

Where have I (or others) stated a lack of sympathy?

I have every sympathy and would be a hypocrite if I suggested otherwise. I do hope you survive and we can all move on as before. I have more of an issue with your apparent cockiness over this here as I don't really see why you see fit to mock?

However, good luck with your survival bid.

Most bulls fans don't share his opinions, I apologise for him...

I can see this deal helping both fans, Salford are in desperate need of lowering the bills and Bradford are in desperate need of a prop. Think most are just happy to have a solid if not spectacular player.

After last season I wouldn't want anyone to go though same as we did, hope Salford pull through and soon for the fans sake.

If you are referring to me then really, no need.

Pretty much exactly what I said. Seems you share my opinion on this. icon_biggrin.gif
