Yes Neal is from Irlam. Think Clay is from Warrington.
Cant see there being more than the odd Salford born and bred player in super league anytime soon.

1st Money - unless you have a season card - ticket , you wouldent pay £20 pound unless you was die hard.
2nd Performence - If you lose game after game at the willows why would you turn up.
3rd Marketing - The games are only advertised on the offical website , and rugby league websites, i wouldent be suprised half the people in salford knew a game was on.
Thats basic

First accept sadness. Realise that without losing 70% of the time, winning wouldn't be such a relief.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32990.jpg |

I don't think this the main reason people don't come. The fixtures are shown in the Advertiser, MEN, National newspapers and also available to check online or on text etc. It's just an excuse this imo. The reasons people don't attend are:
1. They have no interest in rugby or sport.
2. They can't afford it or don't want to pay the admission price.
3. They have other priorities/things to do.
4. A lot of people only like watching a winning team full of stars.
5. Some people are attracted by demand and would go if the place was full and had a big match atmosphere.
6. They don't like the facilities.

think the "no interest in rugby" point is the main problem - where I work there are approx 20 blokes,and I think perhaps only 2 of them know anything about RL !!!! (they both said they'll come to the new ground though interestingly) |

Good john wilky last looked out
on the pitch at salford.
when the snow lay round about
deep and crisp and even
brightly played the lads that night
though the frost was cruelllll
when poor swinton scored a try
we had 94urrrrrrrrrr:7891.jpg |

| People won't fork out £20 to watch, for want of a better word dung. Club are partly to blame for the crowds, no advertisement what so ever, what have this company done they employed at the start of the season? God bless the try before you buy scheme  |

Interesting point about the £20 on the day. It is £12 however for members and £18 for pre booked tickets. Considering we are are moving to a new stadium and it's a whole new era for the club, what do you think the admission prices should be at Barton to really help attract a lot more people through the turnstiles? Personally I'd prefer to see twice the numbers for much less than twice the current gate revenue. I believe that demand creates further demand and would help increase revenue in other areas like sponsorship and merchandise.
For instance should the club take a view that we will have 12,000 places to sell x 13 games and set a target of £1m a season for gate revenue? Would this be more achievable and realistic at lower prices than aiming higher and hoping for the best? (Just because we will be playing in a new stadium) At the end of the day we don't have anywhere near the same pull as a Premier League football club (especially with so much competition in this area) and people have lots of choices such as the Cinema at £7-£8.
Would be interested to know what other people's thoughts are?

Made more noise than Salford fans. Dire atmosphere equal dire performance. Partly feel sorry for the players, how they're expected to get pumped up for games with about 30-40 people singing in the shed. Sometimes feel players are having a laugh at the fans when they say ' [ished was brilliant last night[/i '. Been every home game this season, only fans we've prob been louder than is the Bradford lot! Reason for that is because they was gettin tonked! |
