Just read some more form the Sale side of it, the will be PLAYING ON A FRIDAY NITE, thank god for small mercy, that means WE SALFORD RLFC will be PLAYING HOPEFULLY ON A SUNDAY where will the toffs go now , and who f in cares.

The vast majority of people turning up on Monday don't read the Turkey and ,whilst they may have fond memories of the Willows, they just want to go and watch a decent game of rugby,locally.
We have a very neat modern ground and a competitive team.
That's a compliment to the club management.
Dual use of a stadium is long overdue.
Sports teams owning stadia will reduce.
Just go and enjoy it.
The glass is half full.

This is the nub of it.

This in turn feeds into all the anguish over the Sale move. Some Salford fans don't want to sqaure the circle of why we are in this mess in the first place and simply throw their hands up and say 'face reality we don't own this stadium' and then the closest they get to asking why is saying 'people in Salford don't like RL.'

Well if Mr Salford put as much effort time and money into the willows like he has at barton i'm almost certain the willows could of been revamped to some degree.

Pev, you need to get your Labour mates on Salford council to seriously get on board and help us. We need answers about what agreement both clubs have with the joint venture company and if necessary we need a better deal for Salford.

Dream on !

Why?

Firstly,they wouldn't tell us.
I would love to know!
Secondly we have no right to know .
Thirdly ,the deal has been signed and won't be changed.
As I say,we are where we are.
Deal with it.
Enjoy it.
Swinton or Oldham,who regularly thrashed us,would give their right arms to be in the position we are,with a millionaire benefactor.

We don't have a right to know what a ground part owned by our council is costing? You probably used to say we don't have a right to see what expenses MPs are claiming or we don't have a right to see who is meeting privately with the Prime Minister.

The deal could easily be changed - it's only a contract.

As for your Swinton or Oldham comment - is that how low we have sunk? Comparing ourselves with fallen giants of the past?

I want to see us move forward whereas you seem content standing still which inevitably means going backwards. I suppose if we did go backwards at least we might get the chance to ask Swinton and Oldham fans directly what they think of our Chairman, eh? Then again most people off this forum probably wouldn't bother going.

I will just deal with your final paragraph.
Staying at the Willows would have been standing still and therefore going backwards.
My point is that we have a good stadium and a decent team as a result of a forward looking Chairman.
Enjoy it.
Good night.

its a crutial time in the history of salford city reds, with Sale moving into our area the club and us the fans need to do as much as we can to promote rugby league, salford city reds and poo pooing any rugby union talk in the area.
im hoping that we are able to up our game and give sale a bloody noise in the battle for the manchester area.

Our manangement structure NEED to step up, this is a massive period and what is needed is strong leadership from top to bottom, JW HC DT and the rest of the saints that have put hard earned money into our club over the years need to restructure the club and make it look like Salford city reds is a organisation that is worth investing in.

Further investment will give us the money to expand our crowds and grow like sale in the area.

Without further investment we wont be able to compete its as simple as that, we will still plod around but our big chance this stadium has brought would have gone imo

Staying at the willows would have given us a slow death perhaps another 20 years of salford rlfc but nobodys is going to invest into a organisation which is slowly dying. Perhaps the bravest thing this club has ever done is taking the plunge with barton they went for it if they fail least they gave it a go...it was a poor go and it was a badly managed go...but it was a go all the same

Nail on head! Me, you, Walshy, KOTS, Iain, Chico even Martin LOL Unfortunately he's still hammering down his epitaph! He even knows us and reads everything we say and wishes we didn't exist! Does he give a ? Nope and why should he? Dave (not his real name) Tarry has done well out of Wilko as have many of us but he and us realise things dont last forever!

I reckon the Sale Sharks should change their name to the CUCKOO`s. They stand back and watch somebody else do all the work and then just step in and take over the nest !!!!

that information will be commercially sensitive, but if elected myself I will work to get the best for Salford City Reds to enable them to get out into Salford and bring the crowds in.

How can you compare signing Dai Young to signing Gavin Henson on a joint deal? It's a stupid idea, we are Sale's rivals why an earth would they want to share players with us? And to be honest why would we want want to share players? I honestly don't believe you still think it's a good idea! I have no doubt for your love of Salford as you mentioned previously the only thing I'm doubting is some of the nonsense you have been spouting on here recently.
