This shameful news coming from such a quality media outlet.

I mean really that would currently mean there is only approximately 4 seats per person in attendance.

Me thinks there is maybe an ulterior motive behind you posting this kind drivel with such a megative slant given to things.

theredshed. Spot on matey.

The last time you saw most of the muppets on the forums was the 'McRae out!' shenanigans. They seem to have appeared again earlier this week and have mysteriously disappeared as the Club announce new signings...

Firstly could anyone tell me the circulation figures of the Salford Star?I ask this as I have been unable to find anyone else apart from a couple of posters on here who actually receive it and it appears that the Salford Star doesn't cover all parts of Salford.

Secondly is the Lance Todd dinner actually in honour of Lance Todd?

Thirdly is does appear to myself that there are some supporters on here who make out that a bad news story is good news and that a good news story is bad, especially when it concerns Salford City Reds.

We have a Chairman and a couple of other directors who for years have kept the club going despite the setbacks over the stadium,despite poor gates,despite some numpties who call themselves fans and despite some poor peformances yet these directors are providing us with a new stadium and some fans are still unhappy just what do they want?

If I were the Chairman I would have cut my losses years ago but I am not and John Wilkinson is and being the man that he is he will not give up despite all that I have said above.

I'm almost lost for words.
I'm neither an Architect nor a Structural Engineer, but have no reason to doubt that previously reported and documented plans which detail the fact that the capacity of the stadium can be increased as and when necessary.
Didn't soaring material costs and the (ongoing) recession see off the original design and capacity ? If so, wasn't it almost entirely accepted that a scaled down version was the only way forward ?
Why then are people still whinging about what the ground will hold when the build is compete ?
What the hell does it really matter ?
The Willows had run it's course and was not suitable for expansion. What were the alternatives ?
Some people are never happy, and as far as I'm concerned should alter their outlook on life.
I couldn't give a damn if it initially only holds 12k, it keeps our club alive and in with good chance of growth and success.
Those who have devoted countless amounts of time and energy to get the project to this stage have my utmost admiration.
Could any of the moaners have done better ??
(answers on the back of a postage stamp please)

Its dead easy all you do is draw up some plans on the back of an old fag packet. Then you get a Thomson local and look under B for Builders. Phone one up and tell them to start the day after because the fans want it built by the end of next month. Then you pay for it out of the millions the club makes every year. Simples
