3 conversions missed gurantee holdsworth wont be given the kicking duties at HULL NEXT SEASON

[iGood coverage by Manchester Radio this afternoon.

Great effort by the boys let's all hope our young scrum-half is OK?[/i

Unlucky today I thought you had it at the end , good luck for rest of season and hope snyde is ok

Not long back.
Two/three choices in attack and we'd have won.

The last try by Hull was forward but, hey ho, that makes up for Alker's one that knocked Hull out of the cup.

Two forwards who have come into a lot of stick on here: Boyle and Jordan did put their hand up and improved.

We do need a big nasty forward tho'.

I went expecting to see us get pasted after the Widnes fiasco and 10 minutes in I thought all my worst fears were going to be proved right

In fact I came away disappointed we didn't get the win - on the second half performance I thought we deserved it - Feel desperately sorry for Marc Sneyd - just to get into the first team then get badly injured - I wish him all the best for a full recovery. Do the Hull fans get the award for the least sporting in the league slow handclapping whilst the splints and stretcher came on - miserable gits

whilst you played some good attacking rugby, holdsworth was the stand out player on the pitch for both teams, the only reason you were that close in the end was some baffling decisions by hicks! credit you took advantage of those decisions and nearly came out winners, as for the slow hand clapping when sneyd was injured it was only a minority and soon ended when they realised it was a serious injury, myself and some fc fans had a go at another fc fan who took great enjoyment in shouting at the officials to get him (sneyd was down injured) off the pitch for holding the game up

Very impressed with your attacking play, especially patten and holdsworth, caused us loads of problems, not sure I agree with the poster about the ref being in hull's favour, thought he kept you in the game at times, but I would say that.

Think the hull fans didn't realize how bad injury was, and the got a huge clap off the field by all fans.

Not sure how the ref was keeping us in the game - pretty sure the penalty count was massively in Hull's favour. Fair few dodgy decisions went against us - dropped ball while trying to offload being given as a ball steal, knock on at the play the ball given as interference. Pass for the last try looked like it was forward as well.

Disappointed we didn't win. Should have scored from the break that Jodie made from our own half towards the end but just panicked and couldn't finish. We could have scored a fair few more points today if we'd had a bit more composure.

Proud of each and every one of the Salford players - and supporters who attended,today.
Stu Howarth taken out long after he had passed the ball right;Marc Sneyd before he was eventually carried off injured and the appearance of our club doctor on the pitch were all incidents that showed the ignorance of the FC folllowers.We got nothing for the Howarth offence and were penalised 3 times in succession and Stephen Wild had a hand in his face first;then struck in the midriff/upper torso and then the highlight of the day for the FC followers O'Meley put in a flurry of punches,doesn't cause injury,and when he gets 10 minutes and the penalty in favour of FC he gets the loudest applause of the day.( Some gave him a standing ovation !) I thought these NRL players were used to high intensity ?
I don't think the referee has much experience in such a 'cauldron of hate'.Cheering when he was injured just about put the cap on it.They appealed for everything throughout every second of the game.

Any critics of JW should study the last 30 years of FC - Having to sell Crooks and Schofield in the 80's.
Taking over Gateshead in 1999.Owner Lloyd,from Lawn Tennis,locking the gates,etc.rland the latest on 'their' stadiumrl

It must have been very embarrassing for such a big spending club to have the MoM - Tom Lineham - rlon a freebie from Yorkrl signed by the much maligned Richard Agar.

Let's hope our coaching staff are able to do likewise;they're out there !

Massively disappointed - but Proud.
One place higher than last year is still possible and if results do go our way....

We have done very well despite the never ending injuries.

Well done to the coaching staff...the half time talk,after the last minute first half try to Hull,and the inury to Marc,must have been good...

Best wishes to Marc for a full recovery and a successful 2013.

Eh? Embarrasing to have a young kid who already looks the part having only played his 2nd SL game today?
Right.....

The ref was bad for both team, Salford should have won in the end but took some wrong options. Thought Sidlow had a great game, continually drove at the Hull line & did two important off loads in the first half one of which we scored off.Also Pattern will be sorely missed, his play coming into the Line caused Hull all kind of problems.

On a sour note, I was invited by a friend along with a few other Salford fans into there corporate facility, talk about being abused, thanks for the hospitality guys but next time I don't think I will bother.

I really do feel sorry for you I'm afraid. If anyone could be the epitome of a blinkered fan then I'm afraid your it. Your praising the 100 or so fans that went today (Massive effort ) I stick up for Sneyd as he is only young but he doesn't seem to be settling I don't know if it's a confidence thing. It's renowned fans get to their feet after a bit of BIFF so don't understand your point, then you go on to criticize Hull fans for making it an intimidating (ish) place for the ref getting on his back to try and sway his decision making. You think the shed would have done this over the years? You then proceed to have a dig at Hull for giving youth a chance from the lower leagues? What would you rather they spend money over oversea players to the standard of Junior Langi, Kevin McGuiness, Gray Viane??? What about Zak Hardaker from the lower leagues? I must admit though it was nice of the team to keep up the tradition of conceding a try on the hooter of each half again.

complete nonsense. the slow clapping was not aimed at the player but the length of time it took to get a stretcher onto the park. once he was lifted the whole ground clapped him off. in fact the same thing happened to your first, lengthy injury. yet when one of our players went down (heremaia - always worrying after his disc injury) i noticed only about half a dozen of your fans applauding him when he got to his feet

you played well though, draw would have been a fair result
