Although getting "walk-ups" would be a good idea, I fear it needs more than that. The day a person wakes up and thinks, "Ee, I'll go to t' rugby" have gone. Even people living close to Barton will need a reason to go. These days, where a fan lives is less important than the image of the club and its marketing. if United and City can filll stadiums in far-off countries, we should be stealing ideas from them.
Locke as a new Beckham, Chase as a harder Nasri, Mozza as Giggs.
We need to make ourselves very visible where people go for leisure: cinemas, in town (e.g. Printworks),and other sports. We need to be linking to City and United so younger football fans think of trying the experience out once their season finishes.

Interesting where we all live. One poster on here could say "France" and be right. He attends most matches. How do you market him?

Just looking at the population stats for Salford (And its borough's) if just 5% of the population of the City of Salford turned up at matches we'd average 11,700 (roughly) add to the those who do travel from outside the city to watch you wouldn't get in the ground and then there's the away fans....

Currently I'd predict we're at around just 1 1/2% of the citys population.

5 percent, just 5 bleedin' percent! icon_mad.gif

It's a poor show, but there are nuances in Salford that are pretty unique for a British city. There is the old chestnut about how much affinity those in Cadishead, Worsley and Little Hulton have with Salford. (I won't give Swinton the satisfaction!) And yet here, most of our fans live there.

Very interesting topic!
I've had my fair share of travelling to attend matches. Currently live near Walkden, so it's now going to be an easy trek for me. However, for the previous 22 years I lived in Chorley so a little more travel involved. During that 22 year period, I also had some prolonged times living and working abroad: 4 years in Madrid (2003-2007), and I "commuted" to around 20 matches over that period via Easy Jet; and 12 months in Bangkok (2013), whereby I only managed 3 matches as I tended to come back to the UK every 7 or so weeks for a week but couldn't get in-synch with the fixtures!
So, it's back to being a season ticket holder now!
Was born in Seedley, and my grandfather lived on Weaste Road. He used to work at the Willows, so my indoctrination started early!
