Does the time on the forum require adjustment?

Both games are on Premier Sports (every game of the World Cup is on Premier Sports)

highlights on bbc1 at 11.50

Anyone going to the Scotland v USA game at our place? Just went to buy some tickes and for some reason the West Stand doesn't appear to be open. Anyone know why?

Just a quick plug....the Vulcan in Walkden has every game of the world cup being shown, no matter what else is on. Beer is cheapish as well, £2.45 for bitter, £2.65 for lager. IM not connected to them in any way other than a customer btw, but gaz is ex Eccles.

Do we get the Scotland/ USA game free as part of the early season ticket deal...also any one know how much parking will be..

Not free we got 3 games for a tenner Samoa England knights, England v Italy and Scotland v USA.

That's what I meant red league couldn't remember if it was included..

Spooky ...tickets have just come in post....

Will Salford host the smallest crowd of the tournament?

I've seen loads about how other host towns have embraced and pushed their game - anyone know what's going on in Salford (other than the offer to season ticket holders)?

I would have thought so. I don't know when the bidding process was to host each game, but I doubt our previous management were too bothered hence why we've got arguably the least favourable game. I have no reservations that had Marwan and his team been in charge at the time we'd have had the Kiwi's or Australia playing a game here.

Won't it have been the Stadium Management Company that put the bid in, rather than Salford? Seeing as it's their ground to rent out, not ours.

I think it was the respective towns/cities (with the help of their professional clubs) who put the bids together. I can't imagine relations were too great between our club and the council at the time which probably lead to a p*ss poor bid.

They should just announce entry for 1p - see if the place fills?

I think the reports of 5K tickets already sold for USA v Cook Islands at Bristol show that, given the affordable tickets, if the event is properly publicised that you can generate interest even from non-RL supporters. The only publicity I've seen about the game at Salford from the council has been based on Twitter.

I too fear that we will end up with the lowest crowd of the tournament (although I believe ticket sales have been slow in Limerick so that may yet save us). Shame really as if the event had been pushed to the max by the council, SMC etc & could've attracted say an 8K crowd it would have been a real shot in the arm for the campaign to attract new support to Salford.
