Then again, the majority of supporters simply don't post on here, not by a long way. The Turkey is representative of the opinions of about 20 people. Of those, I reckon 8 could consistently write something worth reading. The rest just pop in here to indulge in whining, gloating, p*ss-taking and all the other playground stuff that every message board suffers.

My tuppence - Our City doesn't deserve a club as good as the one we currently have. Questioning the running of it, when it shouldn't (by sense and rights) even exist as a professional outfit, is the very definition of diluded.

SALFORD RLFC MEANS THE WORLD TO ME AS IT HAS DONE SINCE I WAS A LITTLE BOY DURING THE GREAT ERA OF OUR GREAT CLUB DURING THE SEVENTIES, BUT LETS LOOK AT FACTS
HOW MANY COACHES ;;;; FAR TOO MANY

HOW MANY CHAMPIONSHIPS ;;;;; FAR TOO FEW

34 YEARS WITHOUT THE TITLE ;;;;;

I THINK WE HAVE BEEN PATIENT ENOUGH

LETS SORT THIS MESS OUT

Quote: theredshed "I think the expectations from the fans this season were not too high. I feel the unrest and justifiable criticism after the last 3 games is down to the supporters witnessing a distinct lack of team spirit, effort and some truly awful defensive play.

Who knows maybe it's a blessing in disguise that these problems have come to light early in this 3-year franchise period, allowing the club to address immediately where they are going wrong and what they can do to improve and catch up?

I think of equal concern to the club right now is the risk of losing valuable support and revenue at a time when the club really needs it.'"
THATS A GREAT CALL MATE

Quote: smithy68 "MR WILKY 25 YEARS

.......and I suppose that in the last 25 years, Halifax, Hudds, Wakey, Widnes, Leigh, Warrington, Swinton, Rochdale, Oldham etc etc etc have won plenty.

Whilst I am just as brassed off with the current situation as anyone who comes on here, surely it's not difficult to recognise that without the backing of JW, we would almost certainly by now be facing the scrapheap, like a fair few former great clubs.

It doesn't take a genius to see that our recruitment policy, no matter who has been coach, has been something of a disaster. And yes, perhaps JW's backing on many of these is, with hindsight, hard to understand, but it's quite likely that he is putting faith in others to make quality signings.

He may not have transformed this club into a silverware machine, but it's odds on that he has kept it alive for us.

Unless you can personally do better, lay off the fella FGS icon_rolleyes.gif

Quote: smithy68 "MR WILKY 25 YEARS

And who, exactly, would've won us more titles? Who else was lining up with pockets full of money to take this club forward?

No one.

We have a salary cap to contend with. We cannot expect Wilky to constantly plough his own cash into the club - as I've said before, his pockets aren't bottomless.
A few months ago we were all glad to be back in Super League and have the chance to slowly build the club up. We're never, realistically, going to be a Saints or a Leeds - we don't have the support, nor the interest of the general Salford public. That isn't Wilky's fault, unless you're going to somehow blame him for the general apathy of the Salford public?

But hey, if you can find someone out there willing to plow millions upon millions into the club with no danger of running out of cash whilst circumventing the salary cap then bring them in.

He was shot in both arms , and both legs. He later died because of his injuries. Tommy 25th March 2007. Salford City Reds are the National League Champions again and nobody will ever win a Grand Final more dramatically than this. Division One champions, Grand Final winners, winners of the Northern Rail Cup; everything their hearts desired. Down and out? Not a bit of it, they are never out. Memories are made of this forever and a day, Salford fans will ask "where did you watch the 2008 Grand Final? Where did you see John Wilshere save the day with the last kick of the ball?":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10288.jpg

And no doubt these people will be the first ones back when we get a competitive side together.
