Let's hope they're jumping the gun on this one as it still isn't confirmed elsewhere...'"


Could mean either 1 of 2 things:

1. Salford are putting up a bit of a fight over the fixture being moved and finally making a stand on behalf of the fans.

2 .Salford are waiting til 4.59pm to confirm it, just before the staff clock off, and therefore missing the deluge of complaints etc.

Which one is more likely?

Just throwing it out there. icon_wink.gif

Interesting to note on the stadium facebook page they said they have no problems with it being on Friday or Sunday, so if it stays on Saturday it is sky who have decided not to budge from a rigid 6pm-8pm Saturday timeslot (which is already in the tv guide) despite having pretty much any kick off time they want available on Friday or Sunday.

Karlos, the other game listed for Friday is Wigan v St Helens and Wigan cant lose the league leaders shield likewise Saints cant move any higher up the table so its easy, televise us on Friday at our stadium and leave the other match as it is with no cameras.

Could even show both games on Friday with one live via the red button option. The ironic thing is if Bradford lose at Catalan (4pm) sky are going to be showing a meaningless dead rubber game in a neutral venue, as Wakefield will already have secured a play off place before kick off, so it will have been moved for no reason.

That BBC story has been on for hours - the club stated after it was put online that it is not confirmed. Somebody is saying on Facebook that we're not going to know until tomorrow.

Re the Wigan v Saints game beaing meaningless - yes, Saint's can't go higher, but if they lose and Catalan win/draw, they drop a place. Saints are playing for 3rd place.

Might be a nothing game but with nearly a full stadium and it being the JoiningJack game aswell as simply being Wigan and Saints its pretty much guaranteed to draw more viewers than Salford and Wakey would.

All you club apologist's hang your head in shame. Todays decision to play elsewhere is a symptom of having your soul ripped out.

Blaming Sky, Sale etc is nothing but short sighted. Sky call the shots. If the chairman hadn't sold our soul there would be no argument.

JAW please leave this club ASAP you've already done enough damage, Our soul has been sold. We've been MADE a laughing stock, you're out of your depth running us into the ground. Please sell up, apologise, and walk away.

So passionate. Do you strike your keyboard with fury as you type these little brain-farts of yours?

Wow how funny are you.
Which pathetic brother are you.

I'd doubt you would comment on my rather passionate brain farts in a face to face meeting Mr Puni boy.

You've had a mare there pal, no soul has been sold! It either had to be moved to the Friday or venue changed due to sky's viewing slots, Sale couldn't change their game as one of their conditions to entry of the yawnion premiership is that they are top priority club at whatever ground they play at. (Before you say it, yes it is a farce but no, we couldn't do it in RL atm due to having Huddersfield, Wigan, Hull etc.

It is really disappointing and even a little degrading, but it's reality that these things can and will happen.

DI I assume that I come into the category of a club apologist which I am not, as I know that the club have made mistakes over the many years that I have been a fan and mistakes were being made well before John Wilkinson came on the scene.

The present problem over moving the match to Saturday is down firstly to Sky TV and secondly to the RFL/Superleague and the club appear to have been given no chance,as yet,to have any say in the matter and I have contacted Sky,the RFL and Superleague asking them for an explanation, I haven't contacted the club as it is nothing to do with them although the RFL site says that we will be playing somewhere in Greater Manchester, I assume that you have vented your feelings on them also?

If and when John Wilkinson leaves the club I will wish him well and thank him and Howard Clague, Ian Watson and their families for all that they have put into the club.

If you could explain just what you have against the chairman that makes you constantly rant on in the way that you do,then please enlighten us on what it is as I am sure that there is some treatment available.

Whatever the chairman has or hasn't done I feel that any prospective buyer/investor will listen more to him than they would to you.
