Just read an email from the marketing department - anyone buying a ticket for the opening game against Wakefield can claim free either a mug, a pen or a scarf (all with Salford name and logo of course). This looks like a great way to tempt any wavering potential fans into the ground, and could be the fans Christmas present referred to on Twitter.

The free mug, pen, scarves, offer had been on for a while. It was on when I attended the open day at the ground. I think it maybe a player announcement?

Described on the website as a "classy Parker pen" that would be the option I'd choose if I were buying a ticket (I have a season ticket). As salford sport says, this offer has been open for two weeks, though I had completely missed it. I hope that the email I received is part of a widespread marketing campaign to get a bumper crowd in for the opening SL game. I'm looking forward to it already.

Fair do's. I'd pictured a crappy red biro. Or a picture of Junior S'au with a kit that disappears when you turn it upside down.

Given our luck with the weather I'm surprised there isn't a snow dome - the whole team disappear in a flurry when you shake it.
