As I say elsewhere Peel pay handsomely too sponsor the club and frankly I don't care if the say Lowry outlet Timbuktu, some people would I'm sure go with a sponsor paying less just so Salford could be mentioned in the shirt.

Like it or not naming rights and sponsorship is nothing but corporate and as such will 99% of the time go too the highest bidder. I'm glad that we as a club can attract a major brand like Under Armour too provide the kit and have a sponsor with the financial clout of Peel involved.

Not hard to put Salford above the club badge though is it??

Then clearly peel needs a geography lesson or should we let this company decide where we live? Salford in Cornwall sounds pretty good to me

Just for interest - over the last 15 seasons - has 'Salford' appeared on the Shirts in every season?

This is all very indicative of what is wrong with the fans.

We get a big name kit supplier and certain elements find nothing but fault in it.
We have a sponsor who chose too brand themselves as being in Manchester despite being in Salford and that same element moan.
We chose black, it should be white.
We get a new ground we should have stayed at the Willows.
We re brand and the decision to call ourselves Red Devils rather than Salford Red Devils causes wild speculation.

Within the space of 2 season we have gone from perennial hand too mouth strugglers too having a rich owner with vision, commitment and the will too make Salford succeed.

Can't people just except change and try for once too try and be positive rather than making it look like they don't appreciate what has been done to save the club from extinction.

I've no doubt my struggle with 2, to, too and two will be the main cause for concern for some.

I couldn't give too hoots.

I wasn't passing judgement on the sponsor on the shirt, I just didn't know that Peel were branding Media City as Manchester. Everything I have seen in the past when the BBC were moving was always referred to as Salford.

I couldn't give a monkeys what it says, just glad we have got a decent sponsor. Saying that the Lowry Outlet is a bit like our stadium, half empty!!!!

Outlet shopping is so popular I just don't know why the Lowry is so poor.

Maybe the club could open a shop in there in one of the empty units. Put us on show to more people.

[quoteDear God what is your problem? You not like someone having a differing opinion to you?

If you're so keen on heritage why are you not advocating going back too the original colors? Heritage is often best left too books and memories as more often than not modernisation brings improvements. Are you saying if we become known universally as the Red Devils and become successful and self sustaining that you'd not support the team?

Regardless of the name they are my team, I have been going (or been taken) for 40+ years, played for them and will doubtless die with them in my heart - the name matters not one jot with it is what runs through your veins that matters.'"

I`m sure the Doc and Martin Vickers put a lot of work in securing this and the big money that seems to be coming with the deal, though I`m not so sure of the £1million I saw mentioned. Whichever design was chosen someone somewhere won`t like it but the amount of vitriol and negativity I`ve seen on twitter Facebook and on here about the deal would if I was the Doc make me wonder why I bother.
I agree with Michigan, we should be shouting this deal from the rooftops. If you don`t like the design don`t buy it...

As you say,this is a good news story.
Another one.

Every Club will have moaners and doom-mongers. It just seems to me that we have an awful lot per head of fan than others and for a Club perched so precariously as we are, we can't really afford that luxury. There's little point in sitting back and wallowing in sentiment. We all pine for the Willows, success, the good old days. When kits were kits and there wasn't a video referee in sight. Like everything else, time moves on and we as a Club and fanbase need to go with it or face being left in the past. Unable to or unwilling to partake in the present. The Club is unrecognisable from even a few years ago. In a good way.

We're in danger of nitpicking the Club to the point that MK might just not see the point full stop.

Which will not only leave us without the 'Horrible non-Salford Kit' but without any prospects for the future.

Shall we all get a grip?

Too put this into prospective , I can only think of one other RL team who have a deal with a bigger company (Brisbane & Nike) and certainly there can't be any who invest so heavily in the science of the kits they produce.

If you look also at some of the athletes UA sponsor then they again show what a huge brand they are.

Tom Brady - NFL player.
Lindsey Vonn - Skier.
Hunter Mahan - Golfer.
Jordan Spieth - Golfer.

Pretty sure that Kooga and ISC don't have the same world wide presence.

Would be good if they picked one of the Salford team too be one of their named athletes too help spread the name of not just Salford but RL in general.

Well said are kid, was going two post the same but it was two much trouble and the too people who'd read it are both two busy.
