Doom & gloom is human nature and our fan's nature. You only have to look on here to see that. When everything's going smoothly (as smoothly as it can for Salford) this forum is DEAD! - No one has much positive to say about anything. When there's problem's, everyone and his dog is scare mongering.

In our defence, were not stupid, most of us know when someone can only talk the talk, we've experienced enough of that with SM over the last 4 year's to last any supporter a life time. Secondly, were a fragile lot, who now expect the worse.... A shame with such a broad horizon ahead of us but certinaly not a surprise.

Anyway back to the rumour mill and doom & gloom....... has MP returned yet ?

Shot down over France...I heard of his new best mate he planning to smuggle himself in a laundry basket on the ferry over from France...he was last seen carrying a red briefcase don't know if that's a good thing or not....anyway.
Simms has got a fast car organised with dodgy plates so he will be here by morning he will sleep in wilkys safe flat on the quays till the heat is off..

The blue seat thing was a plan so nobody will be looking for him....just waving our fists at the seats and "Tom" the guy fitting them in anger

Closely followed by Salford, if the position of the last accounts posted with companies house are anything to go by.

It's an open forum anyone is free to look in, it might not always meet with your perception of all things Salford but all i stated was where is this particular threads enthusiasm.!!

Bitter blue

Holdsworth just asked patten how training is going, which probability means he isn't here...or not training yet

At this stage of the season where do they train? Might if its possible and go watch them as I'm off all week.

At the willows this morning then "GYM" VIA twitter where ever that is.. walkden? Wigan? Dunno if I'm honest

Can't image much going on apart from players running around so much they make themselves ill that what is going on by the sound of it...good news if you ask me

Im sorry but why are the players not all back at the same time? Why should some members of the team be training and others be sat on a beach back in AUS. It's not hard.

As mentioned elswhwere Moon and McPherson are late as they are daft enough to be getting married .
Maybe others have contracts that say they do not have to come back for pre season till later as it always seemed to be under SM.
Either way you get the impression that Parish will make them all put in a decent pre season and get them much fitter, if only we had the money for the training camp that the Welsh RU team went on in Poland before the world cup as they were widely regaurded as being the fittest and best prepaired and the cryo treatment in Poland was reckoned to be a big factor in that.

And they only lost 3 out of 7 games too...well worth the money that was.

To be fair two by a point each and the help of a very dubious ref and being a man (not only the captain but best player too) isn't that bad.

A loss is a loss however anyone want's to dress it up.

Rumours that Stuart Howarth is joining you guys. Just released by Wakey.

Three rumours i heard on Saturday:

1. The first SL game at Barton will be v Wolves.

2. The mellenium magic weekend will be the City of Manchester Stadium weekend.

3. The middle name of yesterdays ref is Bruce!

I may have made one of those up!
