Quote: stouffer "Indeed.

London's average attendance was 2200 (ish) last season. If they sold 700 season tickets, then their average attendance to season ticket ratio was 22/7. If Salford's ratio is similar, we'd be looking at an average attendance of about 7850 next season. Can't see too many people complaining about that.'"

Yep, we'd kill for a slice of that pi.'"

I was wondering if anyone would spot that, largely so I can be smug and say "well, of course, 22/7 isn't pi. Pi is an irrational number, which means it can't be expressed as a fraction. 22/7 is an approximation to it, and was the upper bound of the range of values for pi identified by Archimedes."

Mmm. That feels better.

Actually pi (and every other number) can be expressed as a fractal, which is technically a fraction (over a fraction over a fraction ... ) ... Just saying icon_wink.gif

He doesn't want a football club anymore he wants to promote rugby league now, and I think Salford will do something within 3 years. That's pretty instant in my opinion.

All this mention of Pi and not a single Wiganer insight.

I was thinking about this last night and think another decent indicator will be when we don't turn for a game and get battered which unfortunately is going to happen the odd time, if the new team is generally doing better it will be interesting to see how many early walkers we have and how many are at the next match.

Marwan just needs to realise it's going to take a little longer than he realised it would, this current Salford team to anyone that knows rugby isn't going to win SL, we can all see that, it's a competitive side that will win more than it loses and will compete and beat some of the big boys but it doesn't have the full package, the depth or even the youth system to call on.

It's hard to attract top players to a side that hasn't looked like winning a title for decade unless you pay big bucks, which because of the salary cap isn't possible.
If this side gets a playoff spot, next season it becomes easier to recruit a higher standard of player without necessarily paying out as much. This turns the team into a better team than season one, season three then becomes the season when you can invite pretty much anyone to join a side that has the potential for a GF win.

With mega bucks season 3 is the key season not season 1, season 1 is the exciting season but season 3 is when I think Salford will be dangerous, Marwan needs to learn a little patience and I'm sure a genuine top 5 threat will equateto 8k+ crowds.

Quote: middleman "Now spawned a copy story on the Sky Sports Site rlMarwan Koukash disappointed by responserl no doubt BBC will follow , followed by RL trade press / Red Tops on Monday.


I view it as a piece of subliminal advertising/propaganda.
Once again,despite the players being abroad and not much to discuss,he has timed it brilliantly,just prior to one last push for a high attendance for the first game at Barton on Sunday 16th February 3pm k.o.,and got the local press and national reporters to mention Salford Red Devils.
Excellent leadership ! Excellent timing.
( The only negative was the report from the court in the MEN of the lack of professionalism from a former player.That has been a bit of bad timing )

Absolutely hit the nail on the head, shame a fan of another team has to be the one to actually get it.

I honestly think this season is the begining of a very long upwards curve (I mean where currently lower than a pregnant snakes nipples) which will I hope peak and stay at a team who fights every season for silverware.
