Think people need to be realistic , even when we had a semi decnet team the crowds weren't massive , definitely not the 8K which gets mentioned as a minimum. I'm a season ticket holder and so far this year we've played on a Thursday at 8 , Saturday at 3 , Sunday at 1 + 3 , Fridays at 8 . It makes the commitment to get one next year waver a bit as having a 9 year old who plays 3 sports my commitment is to get him to and from his games. That said , we've lost the last 4 including one against a team in the division below , the stadium and location is what it is and on Friday the traffic and weather was anightmare to get to the ground BUT I still got there. There is a level of apathy but being a Salford fan for as long as I can remember we've never challenged for much so to expect people to just decide to turn up is wishful thinking , it's a steady improvement with building on solid foundations that will do it , not quick fix signings , twitter rants etc. I'll still turn up as it's the team I support , it's the 50/50 or 40/60 people we need to get on board and good match day experiences will get those people but consisent match day experiences

Quote: GIANT DAZ "When Koukash 1st took over we we're inundated with Salford fans crowing and warning us all that a red empire waas going to take over the sport, they were going to sweep all before them in 2 years, dominate thr game for years, have all the world's top players playing in front of packed houses etc etc....i did say back then, even though i was told i and every other RL fan in this country is simply jealous and envious of Salford because we all knew what was gonna happen to wait and see what actually happens before shouting their mouths off !!....they weren't happy with Koukash stating they WOULD be top 4, they were adamant they were gonna be better than that - Well, it seems my words were very advisable at the time as 2/3 years on from koukash's entrance and they appear to have gone BACKWARDS as a club with little or no chance of threatening the top teams before he inevitably has enough and buggers off leaving them with nothing !!

Those fans have made it easy for people to say i told you so etc....the are not jealous of you, far from it, they're probably wetting themselves laughing thinking what came out of certain Salford fan's gobs/keyboard.

I don't mind Salford, had some good cracks at the Willows in years gone but nowadays there is such a chip on their shoulders they and their club are slowly becoming a bit of a dislikeable joke to fans i've spoke to about them.'"

I think you'll find there were very few Salford fans that took that opinion but it's far easier for you to generalise as you've probably encountered 3 or 4 of those aforementioned gobes. While we're on the subject of gobes, any chance you can take the likes of jools and meast back to your board? Thanks in advance.

Jesus Christ there are some obsessed fans on here. Let's just leave RL to the handful of teams that can pull 6k every match and throw the world conquering Leigh RLFC into the mix. icon_rolleyes.gif

This 'inundation' sounds quite avoidable.
