| Some stick, some dont.
With warrington, I call them the Wire and im only 23 however the wolves was a brilliant initiative, along with the 'Wolfpack' to get kids in when we were 6 or 7 years old and many many lifelong fans. In those years we averaged about 3500, I genuinely put the success in our attendances down to the hard ground work done 15 years ago and part of that wasthe reinvention of the wolves. Besides our town crest has a wolf on.

sounds like sound marketing from a well run club ? If only other clubs would follow suit ?

| Wire had no money in those days
We were saved from going bust by our current owner! Stroke of luck really.

| We were being called Tigers long before SL and adopting it into the club name. Honestly can't remember if I've ever heard anyone refer to us as the Glassblowers.
On a similar note: Huddersfield Barracudas anyone?

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

| We had a great nickname with Les Diables Rouges / The Red Devils, but unfortunately someone decided City Reds was better. You'll hear Reds used now and again but I'm yet to hear a Salford fan use the term City Reds.

| Personally I like the City Knights as a name. Wasps invokes bad memories however.

| I'm really glad my club stuck with 'Robins'. I find the whole Rhinos / Warriors / Bulls thing a bit too contrived and American.
It's also a far greater achievement when 17 Robins defeat 17 Rhinos that the other way round.

Good stuff!
I graduated last year so don't have much to do with them anymore, bar watching the odd game. Hopefully they can regather next year and put a decent fully committed team out.
