Quote: Red John "The marketing ideas you put in the rest of your post are the sort of things most of us would like to see. The point quoted above is why they don't happen. The club hasn't got much money and has chosen - correctly, in my opinion - to spend as much as it can on the squad in the hope that a winning team will bring fans in. The fact that it's still a relatively weak squad shows how little money the club has. The alternative that you seem to be suggesting - spend less on the squad and more on marketing - means, inevitably, a weaker squad, so you end up spending a lot of money marketing a team that's getting tonked every week (and, despite what you no doubt think, the current squad won't get tonked every week, only [imost[/i weeks). I doubt that any amount of marketing would bring people in to watch such an uncompetitive team.

So that's the problem. The club has no money to spend. You want to blame the chairman, the board, the CEO, whoever. For me, these are the people (the [ionly[/i people, unfortunately) who stand between us and oblivion, because they're having to put their own money in to keep the club afloat in the face of massive public indifference. It's the public indifference that's the problem

RedJohn i fully understand your views, but to be honest he hasn't attempted a single PR & Marketing stunt in many a year. It doesn't cost a fortune in his world does it.

Someday, somewhere, today’s empires are tomorrow’s ashes.:

Many if the things you've suggested [ido[/i cost a fortune though, or at least a 'fortune' where Salford are concerned because they've virtually no money left for marketing. Even printing leaflets to hand out costs money. One of theh reasons for moving to the new stadium was to attract more money so they [ican[/i do some of the things you suggest. The money has to come from somewhere.

As DI has already explained, you can't just keep using REASONS to provide the reasons why things are the way they are...

Well i spend a lot of time in the warrington area, their community programme puts us to shame. I know the wire are backed heavily in wealth but even stretching back a dacade or so when they were averaging 4000 attendances, they were always marketing and promoting the club heavily so i don't buy into your views john. Their's no excuse refraining from promoting your product.

They were marketing and promoting heavily and achieving 4k attendances? Another excellent point you've contradicted...

You fascinate me. I try to correct your ramblings but you have a weird habit of correcting yourself, then ignore your own reasoning.

Quote: Dantes Inferno "I have never once heard, read, seen a statement off Jaw regarding putting the club up for sale. I've heard in the past few years he is willing to step down IF, a younger enthusiastic businessman appeared on the scene to take over his reign. But he has never once put the club up for sale, so until he does we can't really take his comments seriously enough, we'll never know how much serious genuine interest is out there until he actually takes the club to market.'"


And there you have it folks. Because DI has never heard, read or seen a statement from JW (or an advertisement in the local Loot) it's not true.

You poor soul. You actually think the club would need to announce it "for sale" to ensure it found a buyer.... Dear me..how's McDonalds working out for you?

You really do live in a make believe dream world DI. I suspect your of average intelligence and therefore able to forge a few blind reasons (without proof) as to why all is not well.

When time and time again your arguments are exposed to be no better than your supposed support of the club itself. You really should not be allowed near a computer. You should be personally assed at your local mental health clinic if you believe the sale of a sporting entity is made public? Not until serious consideration has been given as to whether the interested party is suitable or serious in taking control of said sporting entity would it then be made public.

Getting back to you though. I question your alleged support of the club taking into consideration your constant DIvergent and opposite argumental mentality.

And if your support isn't In question then where just left with the conclusion that you have very little in the way of social face to face communication and or debate leading you here, posting unfounded, untrue, unsupportive billy b0llocks just to get attention. Being involved with club on a higher level than yourself really does show me just how far from the mark You actually are in so many ways.

They say knowledge is power. With that being the case DI. You my friend are the weakest link.....Goodbye.

Again, I don't think you're being fair there. Unless you're talking about giving away free tickets (which Salford have tried) then the things Warrington were doing will have cost money, and Salford haven't got any so can't do the same. Simon Moran bought the club about a decade ago, and I guess the apparent increase in marketing would have been financed by him. Salford need a Simon Moran, but we haven't got one (yet).

Quote: Dantes Inferno "At least they were out in the community, not like salford doing fookall.'"


But they aren't 'doing fookall'. By your own admission

It's all down to money.

And what world exaclty do YOU live in??? The more you say the more I think you just blurt out the first thing in your head. Please think about what you say before you mash away at the keyboard. There's no excuse,you have an unlimited amount of time to consider posting garbage like this.

Can you please tell me the net worth of JW or at least what you think it is? you give the impression you think he owe's his life and hard earned money to SCR's. Why ? Just becuase he's passionate doesnt mean he's stupid. He has to keep thing's balanced, and if he bankrupt's him self putting money into a business he control's and doesnt currently see a return from then the club itself (with time) will cease to exist!

To help you comprehend, think of it this way, if a business you control is losing money (which SCR's does) when do you call it a day when putting money into that business ? Do you carry on and stupidly put in more than you can afford ? and more than you will ever see a return from? I think everyone with a brain knows the answer to that, but just incase your unsure the answer is NO!

I'm sure JW would put endless amounts of money into the club given he had an endless amount's of money to give! And that's what you strugle to grasp, HE DOES NOT HAVE ENDLESS AMOUNTS OF MONEY, it's been pointed out to you for month's now in topic upon topic that we're lucky to have a club to support, as the chairman and the board are not making a profit from the business and have every right to pull what funding there is and put the club into administration.

So if you think things "dont cost allot in his world" tell us what sort of fortune you think he has? The fact is you have no idea and on that note you should cease posting your garbage.
