| Quote: Original Salford City Red "Have you carried any promotion for the Catalans game?Distributed any fliers,asked any friends or family?'"
That quote sums up everything that is wrong with SRD and sadly everything that is wrong with a certain section of our support. You wouldn't be a member of forever reds would you? Or behind one of many, "look I'm a better fan than anyone else" pages on twitter, blowing smoke up Marwan and Martin's on twitter.
As a fan, I pay my season ticket, buy match day programmes, buy club merchandise for my children. That's where it ends. If you want me to start walking the streets, printing and putting up posters, then your having a laugh, suppose that makes you a better supporter than me?
Who is it we support... Salford Red Devils, Profes....

| Considered a success by me too. Don’t forget this is a Salford team that before yesterday had won just 1 in 11 games.

For me, this could only be considered a success if Contact details were taken from the people attending yesterday. Would enable follow up, targeted marketing, etc.
However, I took 2 newbies with me and they weren't approached / asked for details. Pretty sure I'd heard that this would be done. How can the investment made by the owner of free entry be deemed a success if no follow up is made?
After the last reduced price entry match (Warrington), I sent a Twitter about this as my brother bought 2 tickets and was not asked for his contact details. Martin vickers told me I was wrong, and that everyone had info taken. My brother must, therefore, have lied to me, even when I specifically asked him again. I passed my brothers contact details to Martin after this, at his request. If you're a gambler, take a bet on whether or not my brother received ANY contact from the club!
I really do worry about the future when things like this happen (or don't happen)

I mentioned this elsewhere, didn't see anything or anyone taking any details.
As I keep saying, nearly - just nearly.

Well you can take Twitter, Facebook and this forum off the list, as despite popular belief, only a small percentage of people use these things, not to mention take everything in. The Evening News I'll give you, although a lot won't buy it any more. The radio depends on the station it was on, and when. Plus, I hardly ever listen to the radio so wouldn't have seen it. Posters? I haven't seen many around.
I plugged the game myself amongst as many people as possible. There were still plenty I've spoken to who had no idea it was free. Whether that's a lack of marketing, not marketing in the right places or down to the individuals I don't know. But it's not something that should be dismissed so glibly.
As it is, it seemed to work quite well as we got double what you'd expect for a Catalans game normally. I also seriously doubt anyone had their details taken, they were just being put through the turnstiles and no one was on the other side to get info off anyone.

| I've been through the reasons before but it’s an increasingly hard task marketing Salford. They also face barriers many other clubs don't. Beyond posting a letter through 200,000 homes telling people about last week’s offer, I doubt any other method would have had much effect.
