Quote: Redfordanger "Can't help but feel this is only good news for us.Couldnt give a rats a**e about united, but if they should go into decline now,then maybe more people would come and watch us.I work all over the north west and nobody wants to talk about any other subject but united.Whenever I mention rugby,people just ain't interested.'"
I go to United as well as Salford.
I really do not understand why people have a utter dislike for football.
Where do you visit in the North West ? I always find people are quite happy to talk about rugby League wherever I go as well as football.
Football (or soccer whatever you prefer to call it) is the best supported and participated sport in the region and probably the world.
Hence the reason he papers/TV and the person on the street talk about it.
If you think a couple of years of United winning nothing would bring fans to Salford then you are sadly deluded.
Move to Wigan Hull or Sydney if you just want to talk and hear about rugby league(even then football will come up
)
