Fair enough by Hardcore my point was my observation is that our home support around is pretty always around the 3 thousand mark , no more obvious than when we play somebody like catalans or quins, so thats what i was getting at.
Maybe my rose tinted specs was getting carried away with the positive feedback about the shirt.

| All you have to do is look round on an average home game. I bet you'd be lucky if you manage to count 1000 supporters wearing solly jerseys

We were getting down to the 1000 mark against a couple of teams in 2003 and 2008. Watching uneventful, one-sided dross — now that's hardcore!
To be fair, what I was going to add, and didn't because I couldn't be ar sed, is that it's not necessarily the 'hardcore' that you base your sales potential on. Replica shirts are as likely to be bought by new or floating support because wearing one is the most direct, visual way to build an association. So, in theory, the club could easily sell a 1000 shirts. In theory.

perhaps it is a Salford thing, last night I had a free ticket for United, asked everyone in the pub we were in in Trinity if they wanted to come, even offered a lift down and they all said would rather watch in the pub, despite beer going up 5p a pint.

Yeah, but we're all dead hard so prefer to go "blacked" up to games and not "jestered" up like the rest of super league seem to do

Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry. Worry never fixes anything.

There's nothing new there Pev, thats been the case for years but people hid behind the "I'm a massive United fan but there's no chance of getting a ticket". In my former local the Willows I often offered to go out and obtain a ticket for "the mouths" even offering to pay for it so long as they went, guess what there was always an excuse.
They just got dressed up in there nited replica to go to the pub.

The bit I found most amusing was your suggestion that the club should've ordered 5,000.
As a comparison, Bradford (whose fans all seem to live in Bulls merchandise) have ordered 4,000 shirts this year and they have a far bigger fna base, and get far bigger crowds, than we do.

Don't you think we'll sell more than usual though? Firstly, it's a decent, more traditional shirt. Then there's the commemorative reasons and we also now have a decent retail site which again may increase sales.
Do you think Bradford would order 4000 if they were issuing a shirt in similar circumstances?

To be honest, I'm not sure. Hopefully, but probably not many more.
That said there's a fricking HUGE grey area between "sell more than usual" and "5,000"?!

Yes but then, as I mentioed, they have a far bigger fan base, and far higher attendances, than us.

I hold my hands up. Having now seen it first hand, we'd be lucky to sell 500 never mind 5000.

| Picked my shirt up yesterday.
OK the material is more like a T shirt than a rugby shirt, the V's are 'iron on' and the sponsonsors badges are too prominent AND there's no devil AND it's overpriced. BUT, I still think it's the best looking shirt I've had whilst supporting Salford and I shall be wearing it proudly throughout the season. COME ON YOU REDS!
