I feel we moved backwards when we got rid of Karl Harrison and a Steve simms appointment of mcrae at least when Karl Harrison was here the team was committed and we did not get battered every week then we got mcrae that's where it went wrong I just hope Wilkinson takes control and not let simms employ the new coach. For me he is the main problem for a while and if any one should leave it is him

You didn't and it wasn't. 5 or 6 hundred, which for travelling down on a Friday night is a bloody brilliant effort.

As for our performance... Dour. Uninspiring. A weak way to go out of the Cup. It was just a deflating night all round.

Thats your opinion,my opinion is that we took around 1000.

No, no you didn't.

But then it was Simms who appointed Harrison and you liked him!

To say I was shocked at the turnout last night would have been an understatement! we could have no excuses, second round of the cup, at home no football being played so no excuse.
If there was 1200 Salford fans there last night that would have been tops,


So 2087
-1200 Salford fans max
= 887 Rovers fans at minimum
Shall we settle on at least 887 Rovers fans then?

is that including the Rovers fan who jibbed in and got chased down by andy slack and his steward boys and thrown out this 800 Hull KR fans

attendances have been dreadful at all the cup ties, only 5000 at Bradford and St helens and warrington. Can someone get Sheik Mansour interested in RL!!!! I have watched Salford for over 40 years , and i can take losing as long as we play with passion and play expansive football that everyone wants to watch. This i am afraid has been lacking for sometime, and is down to poor coaching, poor fitness levels, and a squad with not enough depth. At the moment we lack passion for the shirt, lack of leadership on the field , and the senior players know if they havea bad game they wont bev dropped as we have no one to come in. I would rather see 17 players on the pitch who would give there all, and play with freedom and imagination than watch the current dross.

Holdsworth should not be the captain,and definitely not stand off,another one we went overboard about,
but still only an Australian reserve.another bad decision.

Any other nuggets of Rugby League knowledge, Lancetodd?

Maybe, Grandmother shows Patten how to be a real fullback?

Or, Ratchford waste of space because he's got a bendy face?

I love the fact that we have fans vomiting this kind negative tripe. That for some incredible reason, they are in a better position to judge who should and shouldn't be a Captain.
