Salford were always going to struggle without Marwan covering their losses, instead relying on their pitiful crowds to bring in income.

I don't know how Salford will survive whatever they say we have a 7500 average and our directors still have to put 500,000 in every season

Aren’t they the same person?

Valid: (of an argument or point) having a sound basis in logic or fact...

no one in Salford cares about the rugby team. It’s the same in Wakefield and Huddersfield. It’s sad obviously but true which is why these 3 teams hold the game back

No-one?

Funny how he doesn't mention Widnes isn't it. As far as holding the game back, he doesn't have a scooby-doo what he's talking about as usual.

I should be banned for using bad language in calling out a troll for what he is, and he is allowed to carry on delighting in other teams plights not once not twice but three times?

New to the forum? Didn't you say on Wakey forum that you had previous accounts that were banned?

Literally no one?

Lets be serious for a minute, can you not see a common denominator here?

Most of those supporters have seen the square root of sod-all when it comes to success (you don't understand the concept) & yet they turn up in whatever numbers, some St's fans would walk away if they didn't make the play-offs.

They care, more than you'll ever know.

No one?

What you should realise is that those few thousand people who do turn up to Salford games care a great deal. They aren’t turning up to watch trophy competing sides, they are turning up through loyalty. Something more successful club’s fans wouldn’t know much about.

I’d be more worried about the fact that trophy winning sides only pull in between 10-15000 fans. Is that all they can attract when being at the pinnacle of this sport? It’s pitiful really. Charlton pulled in similar figures to St Helens last season and they were in the 3rd tier of English football and Saints are arguably the third biggest RL club in this country. Portsmouth who were in the fourth tier last season had a higher average attendance than all clubs in SL! These more successful RL clubs have no excuses for their lack of fans. They aren’t exactly taking the game forward and pulling in big crowds week-in-week-out are they?

Everything you need to know about rl in one post

GROUP A: St Helens, Wigan, Leeds, Hull FC, Warrington and Castleford delivered close to 800,000 SL fans in the UK last year......12k average
GROUP B: Catalans, Salford, Leigh, Widnes, Huddersfield and Wakefield delivered close to 400,000 SL fans last year........6k average


The harsh reality is that Group A clubs have taken the game as far as it will go in the UK whilst they are hamstrung by under-performing Group B clubs.....blaming the Group A clubs for not doing better is crass. Comparing us with football is insane by the way, but I am sure you knew that but did it anyway just to suit your argument.

Id be delighted if those figures were, 800,000 and 400,000 fans of SL, but they aren't are they, its just counting the same fans multiple times.

Hence a 12k average for 6 clubs is just a 72,000 fanbase (plus an adjustment for adhoc attendees).

Rightly so as well I'm not sure why your still hanging about, it can't be for your stimulating conversation or your knowledge of rugby league
Jog on and leave the proper mischief making to Chorley John or his shadow queen jane.
