Just for the record the attendances this year have been questionable with regards to improvement, and if their has been any improvement surely its due to an upsurge in away support. So the 3000 - 3500 die hards still remain it's core support and even more lying dormant awaiting transformation as they've lost trust in this leadership.

Quote: Red John "

The 5000 crowds are an improvement on last year, but it looks like the club were expecting more. The difficulty they have is that they've (rightly, in my opinion) invested as much as possible in the squad, leaving little for marketing. But, despite playing some of the most attractive rugby we've seen for years, they still can't get Salfordians off their ar[is[/ies and into the stadium, and I doubt any amount of marketing will make much of a dent on that.
'"


No one really knows our average crowd mainly due to the mythical figures being announced earlier in the season, and then rounded down after they had made the press.

As for not getting people into the stadium, sadly first impressions matter, and the shambles over ticketing/parking in the first few games will have put people off (not entirely the clubs fault). Also a lack of any promoting of season tickets towards the end of last season (even with 10000 in the ground vs Catalan) meant that we would always be starting from a low base crowd wise. Until the club realise the importance of promoting the sales of season tickets we are unlikely to pull in any major crowds on a week to week basis.

i think next season Salford need to announce season ticket sales early and a simple method of people getting them as for last year i thought the leaflet they eventually gave people was over complicated for a season ticket.

hopefully they will come up with a more better method of people possibly paying on the day on the turnstiles other than getting a ticket.

the shuttle buses have improved over the season to where they pick up, parking round the stadium has improved with pay on the day parking next to the small pitches right of the stadium, the airport also the container company opening up for parking for fans.

i think salford where blinded thinking if they build the stadium that will solve all problems i for one did not think this and i believe it will have to be a gradual process. salford and the smc hopefully will learn a great deal from this season and improve on it for next season.

hopefully some sort of investor can come in and inject a little money in to the team and improve the salford business. i will give credit to phil and all his back room staff for what they have had to work with

Quote: red eyes "It seems on here with Salford you are in the camp where everything the club do Is right,or the other camp that thinks everything they do Is wrong.There Is no centre ground surely the club do not do everything right or wrong.
'"


It's nothing to do with people being right or wrong it's about those continually pointing angry fingers not being able to grasp that without a serious financial injection of cash the club will continue to fall short of expectations. Salford will continue to develop and lose players (feeder club) and come a cropper like they did on Friday after two good results. Anybody over 12 years old who thinks Salford are capable of being a top 8 club every year without major financial investment should be locked up for their own safety. d040.gif

Next year I honestly think we'll struggle to attract more fans than we have this year. Most away teams this year have had 1800/2000 (and more) there so in essence the 3000/3500 home following is more or less the same. Next season when the 'novelty factor' wears off and we're continuing to do what Salford do, loose games we should be winning, then I honestly think hand on heart we'll average less!

I'd happily get leaflets and posters printed off for the club at my own expense and time. No one at the club seems to want to do anything so its about time we helped out (even though it's not our job). I'm not saying posters and leaflets will make a massive difference, they may not, but they might get the locals aware that this is [sizeSALFORDS HOME GROUND IN THE CITY OF SALFORD AND NOT SALES[/sizethe lack of marketing and information about the stadium and who plays there has been embarrassing this year although it has started to improve lately. We need to take action and help the club out out. The reward may not come on the pitch, but will come in Salford heaven when we snuff it, if not we will become second class tenants in our ground no matter what anyone says.
