| How about 13 full backs? First one back in position takes the number 1 role whilst the other 12 form the defensive line.

Yes. It's bitter bullsh*t. I think the vast majority of Salford supporting blues will be quite happy, or at the very least non-plussed with the change.

Just another mark on the "LeagueFreak is a bellend" sheet, then. Hope he gets shafted somehow.
Quote: SCR-SeaDiver "I can honestly see the Stadium being rebranded 'The Devil's Lair' or something to that effect. It's incredibly cheesy but if it puts bums on seats I'm not going to disregard it straight away as an option.
We just need a new name for the South Stand now
I think the SMC and those who currently own the stadium naming rights may have something to say about that.

I heard a while ago that if someone registers a domain name for a company or organisation they have no association with, they can be made by law to transfer it without any financial reimbursement.

I was wondering to myself how long it would actually take before an 'ism' patrollor played a do-gooder card from the moral high ground deck. But thanks for the warning.

| The real Red Devils from Greater Manchester get to have their heritage nickname as part of their club, I'm pleased for you. It's a shame those plagiarising ba$tard$ from Stretford in the other sport pinched it from you and ran it as if it were their own for decades. The sad thing is I wonder if the nation know about [iles diables rouges[/i and whether they just think you're copying them lot?

rlThat may not be truerl. But Salford certainly had the nickname before United.

I remember going to a Manchester United tour at Old Trafford back in 2000 just after Utd won their second European Cup (I went mainly to view the champions league trophy) we were taken out onto the pitch and were told the history of Utd's Red Devils moniker, Utd's tour guide said it was actually supporters that started the nickname off for Utd, as they attended both Salford and Utd games u'd see Salford fans attending Utd games. Something which caught Busbys eye before the game was a young child with the the Red Devils knitted onto an homemade scarf, he went over to the child and his farther and asked " nice scarf son who are the Red Devils" the farther replied its Salford rugby clubs nickname their the Red Devils. Busby replied "cracking little nickname I'm impressed with that" apparently you'd start seeing scarfs being sold at old Trafford with the Red Devils on and eventually a devil was introduced into the clubs crest the season after. I think it was brilliant story and the guy who was heading the tour said he was told by busby himself when he was at the club under an club ambassador role.

As lovely as this story is, it, like most attributed to Busby and the ‘Red Devils’ name, is probably an urban legend. The most far out story I’ve heard yet is that United earned the nickname ‘A Voros Ordogok’ on tour in Hungary, which sounds remarkably similar to how Salford got the name. Misappropriation, perhaps? (Although at least one RL historian reckons Lance Todd fabricated the nickname prior to the French tour for promotional purposes.)
Busby was very proud of the ‘Babes’ moniker, making few if any references to the ‘Red Devils’, even in his memoirs. He wasn’t known as a rugby fan, nor was he known for savvy marketing ploys. The first time Manchester United made reference to the Red Devils was for a souvenir brochure during the 1956–57 season; the nickname is also mentioned in newspaper reports at the same time.
I have a hunch this is more likely
But it’s nothing more than a hunch at the moment.
