| Quote: Jim Jalfrezi "Dear Callum.......
a lot of the posters, have been going 'home and away' for some 40+ years, just like me.
We've seen it all in that space of time..............from the finest side never to win a major trophy, to heartbreaking semi-final defeats, fantastic 'against all odds wins', and yes, rugby just as poor as you are witnessing at the moment.
It's all part of being a Salford fan.
Don't expect too much, even IF your still going 'home and away' 20 odd years from now. It just might never happen.
I'll forgive your rant, as I want us all to pull together, whatever the outcome.
Just a word of warning though, personal abuse will not be forgiven if it persists, because the truly loyal Salford fans are totally sick to death of it. It's not helping one bit.
So, either put up with what you get from our beloved club, or, give up following Salford.
BTW, I'm 48 years old tomorrow, so you can imagine just how fed up I am about it all.
Happy Birthday to me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!'"
Totally agree lets all be positive about the club we love and have a great Birthday to.

| Quote: Prestwich Red "Yet again at the end of the game we had so called fans shouting abuse at the players. There are a group who every game stand at the tunnel exit next to the club shop and hurl abuse at all and sundry. You can see the players faces as they walk off they are shocked and dismayed.
I am not Smiths biggest fan, but last night he walked off between two players so he could be shielded from the so called fans.
Who in their right mind would want to come or stay at the club when your own fans hurl personal abuse at you.
I am not happy with things at the club but will these numpties please wake up and realise what they are doing at games is seriously damaging the reputation of Salford.'"
All that I can say about idiots shouting seriously personal insults is: I'ts a good job that Ian Gormley aint around!
That's if some of this lot even know or remember him.
Some of these so called fans should keep their mouths shut whilst they still work.
Pathetic

| Quote: davros "The young lads who post on here are very passionate about the club and are not the devils that they have been painted out to be. They all should be encouraged to show that passion in a more positive way.
Lets not all fall out with each other at this difficult time. We all must get behind the club and the coach till the end of the season. Rant over!'"
absolutely spot on
us young ones ARE PASSIONATE about the club and have not experienced the good times like the 80s and early 90s which we have been told about by family who have brought us up to support salford and to this day we still do... and would love to go through the experience they have been through with salford in the 1990s winning the premiership final against halifax with 50,000 + fans turning out... this is why we come on here saying the things we do because where passionate about this club and want to experience what my family as experience while being a salford
fan... yes i was absolutely buzzing when we made the play off and just want to go through this experience again like ever single one of us on here lets just stick togerther and get through this ruff patch and hopefuly in the near future salford will be as big as us all want salford to be..

Since the 70s all Salford's successes have come at the lower level,2nd division titles,2nd division premiership finals,promotions and play-off finals to Super League.
That's the nature of the club we support.No major title for over 40 years,always struggled in the top division,too good for the lower division.
Salford will only become a "big" club,competing regularly with the best,if they can get more income into the club either through increased attendances,the new stadium,or a Mr Moneybags taking over the club.
In the meantime be thankful we have John Wilky as chairman or we could be like Swinton or Oldham,both former "big" clubs,but now struggling.

| Quote: Original Salford City Red "The sooner the likes of Callumisared and Ave it! along with a few other people? are no longer associated with the club the better for all concerned.
The outburst's that they both appear to be admitting to are are an absolute disgrace and they should ashamed of themselves and there is not one decent fan that I have spoken to recently who want this type of person to support the club or even belong to the Forever Reds.
The problem with people like these is that you cannot have a normal discussion with them at any time unless they get tanked up beforehand and it is quite strange when some of their targets are actually in attendance at meetings etc how quiet these people are.
No one is entitled to verbally abuse anybody whether they have paid to watch a match or not and the length of time that some people have been supporting the club(5YRS) is nothing and again does not entitle them to verbally abuse, threaten, or physically assault people(which throwing a pint of beer is)
For what it is worth the players, coaches,officials, directors other staff and supporters are working hard for the club what are these people doing?
The coaches make errors, so do the players, and so do we all but these pale into insignificance compared with damage that the likes of Callumisared and Ave it! are doing with their stupid comments and actions.
Please stay away from now on.'"
Woww just because I had a little ourburst on here after I got in that means I should stay away from the club? Give me a break. I never said anything to Mcrae nor the players last night I didn't boo them or give them any personal abuse I simply came on here after my day out, and let off a little steam, and if my comments on here have upset Mcrae or any of the players then maybe its them who should stay away?? So comparing me to what callumisared has done is way way out of order don't you think?

After having another look at your first post the answer is no.It is a disgrace for anyone with to actually print such rubbish and I find it quite sad.

Yeah maybe so and I've apologised for that, but posting a few words on here is hardly the same as squaring up to the coach in an aggresive manner (like Callum), which is what people seem to think I have done
What was said was in the heat of the moment and I've accepted that some of my comments were out of order, I for one will not be staying away from the club or the team as much as you'd like me to. I'll be there week in week out as I always am, having a beer, enjoying my day and supporting my team!!!

we won the league in 1974 and 1976, which was the major trophy then, therefore that is 33 years not over 40 years unless you know of a different branch of mathematics, but it is still a long time, some "bigger" clubs than us have waited even longer.

Yes you're right,it is 33 years. My abacus must have packed up.

| i understand the frustration and anger off fans slagging off players & staff.i for one had and outburst with one off the players but thats due to personal reasons not rugby.rather than having a go at the players attend the meetings that salford organise where players and coach answer the fans.im there week in and week out and i get frustrated but the more the fans go bitter the players do.i mean look at the difference when we was playing wigan in the cup,we was on a high now fans cant wait for it to be season to be over.the only thing that annoys me is that we dont get told alot about whats happening at the club.we find out stuff from 3rd partys.once the board buckle up then i think the fans will get behind the team alot more and the shed will be rocking.

| I think we'll draw a line under this thread. Rash comments were made, overreactions were posted and retractions came later. No one in their right mind comes on the Turkey if they don't support the club. Well, no one in their right mind supports Salford. But we'll all be there on Friday. Let's make it a loud one, especially as it should be a winnable game.
