Well done Salford......

Massive improvement i witnessed last night, especially defending our line in the last 10 minutes or so, last year we would of leaked in a lot more points, i thought holdsworth was magnificent and smith was outstanding in the 1st half. Thought young Gareth Owen played well coming on in the second half, as you know i'm not a sean gleeson fan but he flipped a magnificent ball out for Gibson to score in the corner in the first half, don't really want to draw a negative on a great win but i wish we had a pack leader to march us even further up the table.

Well played fella's

If only the off the field management we're putting in as much effort as them 17guy's on the field.

SUNDAYS AFTERNOONS IS A MUST

Well this Leyther and his son watched a great game from a great view in the west stand. Pity the ref didn't have as good a view as I had of the game as some of his decisions I thought were poor. All you unbelievers that put on here you were going to loose hang your heads in shame and get behind that team now. They didn't give up last night like they did in the last two games of last season that I attended. Hopefull me and Oliver will be watching a few more games from that great view. Even the Hull fans I sopke to didn't really begrudge you that win. Well done the Reds.

I think it is fairly obvious that this squad of players will go through brick walls and jump through burning hoops for the coaching team and the desire of the players won the game -(as coach and player have since announced.) Bentham was appalling and the performance of Hull was like watching paint dry and will drive supporters away.
I think this performance should answer the nonsense about our players fitness.As at St Helens,when the officials repeatedly get it wrong it saps the energy and focus of the players.This time it happened in the first half after the 'obstruction try'.They still kept going in the second half - got through an immeasurable amount of tackling and finished strongly - no question about fitness !
A lot less negativity on this forum and on facebook may help persuade those in any doubt to attend the games.
A big well done to those people in the West Stand who kept the vocal support going,even when we were behind,and those 'Chorley Panthers' of all ages were magnificent in testing the acoustics of the new stadium.
Superb support - superb players - both deserved the happiness of a home victory,as do the coaching staff.
Proud to be there and have the experience of everything the night offered.

Still room for improvement from the players but their discipline to keep persevering from the non-performance
at the first pre-season game and through games where the decisions by officials are beyond ridiculous they continue to play the game in the right manner and in the right spirit.It seems to me a great squad of players have either been assembled,or moulded by the coaching team.

Amusing reading the match thread on the Hull board - seems a select few can't take losing to little old Salford

Blimey, I have to agree with Dante's Inferno

I commented at the full time hooter that over recent years we would not have been within spitting dsitance going into the final minutes of a game like that. Our goal line defence has improved massively - can it get as good as it did under Harrison in 2006?

Allied with this is a desire to actually play some rugby. We are a long way off being able to beat the likes of Warrington and Wigan, but I think it's a mark of the dire stuff we have been forced to witness over the last 3 or 4 years that the style we are currently adopting is such a breath of fresh air.

Also enjoyed reading some of the arrogant rubbish on the GatesheadHull board. I think my favourite comment was by one loon who suggested we were being forced in to kicking on the third and fourth tackles. I seem to recall we were only doing that as a deliberate attacking ploy to try and catch the visitors out, certainly not through desperation. God, if the way to play the game is five drives and a kick, their lot will be hoping McRae has an influence over their team's playing style...
