| Obviously a lot of you will be feeling crap after getting demolished by a very much improving Vikings team last night, but don't lose heart completely! You'll bounce back. There's always next season...
I'd like to add that I think your new ground is really good, especially the impressive main stand. And your pitch is in A1 condition. Glad we were given the East stand on the night. Only gripe I have is the ages it took to get sorted with tickets at your club shop last night. I miss The Willows though. I know new grounds are the future but I do miss the special atmosphere generated in the old stadiums like The Willows and Knowsley Road.

Listen mate getting to the ground yesterday was a real real hassle. If I thought that after all that I'd be standing for 80 mins I might have decided against it! We had a great atmosphere going anyway. Salford have done the right thing in getting a new place.

Come back to me when you've spent 8 years outside of the top flight in a league where no-one gives a fook, where no-one sees International players, where referees are trained and where no-one dares to come through the turnstiles. 8 years.
Either support your SUPER LEAGUE club or stay in and watch Lloyd-Webber's Superstar of an evening. Veievers must love rwading posts like yours - really gives the lads a lift.

| Right! That's it!!! I'm "DEFANATELY" never going to go to another game, live in Salford, think about Salford, wear red, eat anything red, see red, go to Media City, buy anything from any of the club's sponsors or do any welding until the players have been public flogged on Salford Precinct, made to visit every house in Salford to apologise for that performance, and made to do odd jobs by way of recompense. Or until someone pops my dummy back in. Whichever comes first.

See you in Hull than?
In 42 years......... yes we were bad, we let Childs get to us, we let Widnes batter us, but we did the same to them at the start of the season, they have improved since then we were just the same old same old. We for some reason play worse against the clubs below us, like we are brought down to their level. Both sides were bad last night one a lot worse than the other, but if we had played Leeds or Warrington last night with the players showing the same attitude we would have had over 100 put past us. So lets move on and win some more games.

Just for the sake of clarity. You did not LET us batter you. We handed the battering to you by being better in just about every aspect of the game. Yes you may not have had your finest hour last night, but players do not run onto a pitch to deliberately lose a match.
Get over yourself.

| Agree Widnes have been improving lots, and we have a strong pack with Kite getting fitter and O Carroll as an addition. Widnes should have beat Catalans and Saints at home,so we are no pushovers anymore, like Salford think we are to be honest.Our team spirit is brilliant and onwards and upwards for Widnes.

What does that make Salford?
I recall some Salford supporters shouting "Widnes Superleague? You're having a laugh".
If I recall, and I think I am right, we beat Huddersfield, Wigan, and only lost to Saints by one point. And we had Mr Hicks for that game!

Aside from just before half time when two players gave up chasing your lad going in in the corner. It looked to me at that point like they couldn't give a toss.

| I get why some fans want to stop goin but cant you see thats the problem. We need all the fans to come so we cam get to the 8k fans and spend full cap. Then we CAN compeete. Yes well see a few beatings like friday but in the long run for puttin up with that, we'll eventually get a good side. People who havent even been to new ground.....shame on you. We had to move with the times.....time you did too.

People have been saying that for donkey's years now. It's no wonder people are getting fed up, particularly with all the promises and disappointments surrounding the stadium move.

| Salford are trapped.They aren't a big club because the team is never quite good enough.The team is never quite good enough because there isn't enough money to improve the squad.The crowds won't get bigger because the floating fan won't come unless the team consistantly wins.Therefore its all self perpetuating,no money, team not good enough,team not good enough no extra fans and no extra money and so on.

Hogwash. All our problems could be solved by marketing. And possibly sacking some people.
