Maybe if the trafford centre could give a little bit of a mention to us on the big screen in the orient, not sure if its been done before it probaly has, but I've never seen us mentioned.

how about cleaning up around the willows.
if you come from the coach park you have to hurdle what looks and smells like a pond of toilet water, and on the way out the hurdleing has to be done in the dark. the alleys down eather side of the pitch are full of broken bottles or dog poo, a good sweep befor each game would do wonders for the place. I noticed Wakefields grond is not too different to ours with the only exeption being that it looks clean and a little cared for which can only be good for attracting people. just a thought that would be cheap and effective!

Imagine the Uproar

" Salford City Reds have announced they are to open a new shop in the trafford centre, "its going to be great, Salford city reds are doing their bit to beat the recession" Said John Wilkinson salford chairman.

In other news Salford city reds have announced that they will NOT be using the 300k to invest in the squad and there will be no further transfers, Steve Simms said " We have had a look round but we feel the money is better spent elswhere "

Im sure a shop in Monton,Eccles,Walken or the Height wouldnt cost anywhere near that.

They do and ive seen it

me too

the problem with the advertising is volume and consistency. i have students working for me from salford uni and they haven't heard about the club and their supposed to be a partner? our main sponsors are the Trafford centre you wouldn't know when you go there.
there simply not doing the basics anywhere near well enough and thats way before you start looking at who your booking for half time.

Yeah a ground between [iBrookhouse[/i and [iIrlam[/i must be like Utopia compared to weaste.

The trafford centre isnt going to happen, money is everything and if the RFL would take most of the cost they would want to have a controlling say ie it would become a Rugby league shop not a Salford city reds shop which would benefit the sport but not us as the new "fans" would just pick a winning team, we need a shop where people go, You would get passing trade in all of the areas at present people go to the club shop make a special effort to get there as its the club shop and nothing else on a non match day.

Stick a shop/cafe bar in a town centre like walken or Eccles and you'll get people popping in as its easier access, the Height would be a contender, near a college/schools, students might get interested at dinner time if we can get a tie up with them with student offers somewhere to go friday night, its on a main road lots of cars driving past.

It might be a lot of money to rent a shop there perhaps for 12 months to see if it takes off, i did have a chat with the new guy at the start of the season he wanted to know where the "Centre" of salford was where everyone goes, its a good question as we dont have one imo.

I agree with all of the above, it just gets me when people have a go at the Weaste area when there are lots of other areas IN Salford that would be very hard pushed to poke a stick at Weaste...

Nowt wrong with the shop as it is....just requires some effort, that's all..

The only place anyone seems to visit in Eccles is Morrisons.

I agree with on that one....
