I remember the posters on the gates of hope high and some houses up on eccles old rd. a few years ago,we have to at least try,if its so expensive why do we have a marketing department at all,what do they do all week ???????????????sorry to seem negative but think its beyond a joke.
The fans seem to be the only ones the club rely on to try and boost attendances

Given our crowds you'd have to suggest our fans are failing the club then. Shall we slag the fans off for a bit? Then we can have a whip round and send the cub an apology cake.

I raised the issue a couple of months ago, trish did a good job but whoever we replaced trish with, we cannot be paying much! If we are I think they should be sued under the trade description act.

Marketing at Salford appears to be poor!

I remember the Caravan and the Cubby hole on the precinct, but neaither was eye catching. To have this sort of retail it needs to have good merchandising sold by people who care.

There was a post by Chris before where he mentioned the shop becoming a place to hang out when he ran it. That's what it should be, if we had room it should have an aread for fans, maybe a coffee bar etc.

I actually think that the trafford centre, Meadowhall Sheffield and Metro Centre gateshead should be a target for the RFL to market the game.

These shops could sell all the shirts including national ones, they could show where the game is played at all levels. Tickets and promotions, players etc could be used. get Sky involved, maybe you can be the video ref stuff. Even a Vox for feedback.


I know too much time on my hands.

Those were the glory days, dont have the time to do it these days unfortunatly

I think a shop in Salford precinct would be a great idea, if the rents too expensive how about eccles, monton, walkden or the height, perhaps the club should trial it perhaps for 12 mths see if we got regular custom from people and would give us a tool to market the club with.

If it doesnt work ditch it least they can say they tried it and they didnt get enough custom

To those suggesting taking space in The Trafford Centre - I suggest you take a look at the costshttps://www.traffordcentre.co.uk/corporate/lettings/12regentcrescentrl

Surly We get discount for having Trafford Centre on the Top
