...Diagnosing SBD (Sporting Bipolar Disorder) since 2003... Negs bringing down the tone of your forum? Keyboard Bell-endery tiresome? Embarrassed by some of your own fans? Then you need... TheButcher I must be STOPPED!! Vice Chairman of The Scarlet Turkey Clique Grand Wizard Shill of Nibiru Prime & Dark Globe Champion Chairman of 'The Neil Barker School for gifted Clowns' "A Local Forum. For Local People":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6329.jpg



The Salford public are not really interested in RL, or anything else I can see for that matter. A significant percentage of regular Salford fans are not even locals. While the Club needs to do better to market themselves (Difficult given that our performances recently destroy any marketing done) I feel sorry for MK who is trying his hardest to get things right on the pitch.

I can't see any answer to it tbh. If MK gave away tickets for free every week they still wouldn't bother. In fact it's been tried a few times. Barring a freakish Leicester-like season at some point, I can't see an increase happening any time soon.

That sounds like a Broncos game for most London Fans

Which is annoying when comments come from people who can and do walk up to their ground.

Mind you, I do feel as if I am supporting a dying game. RU is now far more entrenched in the NW. Association Football has taken over almost every sport.

You could bike it to Salford from Rochdale in an hour, it's about 15 miles and all downhill, getting back mind is a different kettle of fish. icon_cool.gif
In all seriousness the location and huge failure to ensure you have ease of access/egress was the most heinous and shocking decision for a community based club and unless you had lots of success then a huge drop off in attendances (and all the massive downsides that follow from that) was a gimme.

If it weren't for the fair-ground land adjacent to the KCom, parking would be horrendous, as it is getting away from the stadium car parks isn't what i would call ideal but by no means the worst though we always parked up at my nan's and walked over.
Access isn't too bad and the stadium is within walking distance for many, train station is about a 15-20 minute walk too and this is were Salford massively falls down as being said it's literally miles away and unless you have access to a vehicle for those living in the Salford RL catchment area it's not within reasonable walking distance.

I'd still like to see clubs provide for secure cycle parking facilities however, I'd certainly bike it from the other side of the city with my mum when I'm up visiting Hull and tbh there's not a lot in it time wise cycling back compared to using the car. There is what looks like a canal path that runs to the back of the AJ, maybe some promotion for people to be able to bike it on a Sunday afternoon as opposed to using the car?

Firstly, they haven't for all fansone area where you know the fans could congregate before and after the match.
I used to drink with many before they went to Edgeley and I set off for Salford (I work in Stockport).

Secondly, by being positive.

Thirdly, the nature of much of their fan base is different. It is almost pyramidical. They could play for a local team, support a more regional team, and go to Sale as the super-regional representative team.

Fourthly, from friends who have attended the games: the match figures can be questioned (allegedly).
