| As a member of forever reds & a season ticket holder I think without doub't there is a problem within the club, although we all come on hear to have our say I believe more than ever we now need to stand up & be counted.
We have all talked about JW putting in his own money & whatever the rights & wrongs about how far he has taken the club & whether he his the right man to take us any further, I myself am not too sure but we need to now get behind the club.
I for one would welcome & would pay extra on my season ticket if the extra went to helping the club to use the funds on the infrastucture or development of some more young players, I would also pay extra for my forever reds membership if it gave us the same result.
I don't want to look back in 5 years & say if only & before anyone starts having a go I have been a season ticket holder for 10 years & a forever member for 3

I support the club not individuals.

| I agree to a certain degree with redgunner, if price rises went to purcahse players then im all for that, but my worry is does Salford own the Willows Variety Centre, which must make a lot on match day etc.
What is the club doing? what is the Chief Exec doing? We all hear rumours that pertain to come from the club and they fill me with dread, as to our ambition.
We all talk about Mr Wilkinson, who the hell are the other directors? We are a private limited company well why dont the board create shares and sell them to the fans. (If Wakefield can do it why cant we?)

| The Willows is owned by John Wilkinson and I don't think it takes that much on match day last season we were queuing for drinks now it is almost instant service.

| Thanks Red Gunner
Im 32 and have watched the club since a child and it has always been the same mentallity from the club an onus on the fans to come out and support the club. Well isnt it about time the club made it so i WANT to go to games. Its like going to see a dying relative at the hospital!!
I dont want to state the obvious but people dont want to buy a crap product, all products have a hardcore support that go week in week out, but new support wont be attracted ever at this current rate.
Why should the club expect loyalty from the fans when the they show no loyalty to us or themselves and blindly wipe away the clubs proud history and tradition. We are the Red Devils, we should be proud of it and promote our heritage. The excuses about United are rubbish, within this game everyone knows who we are and to be honest Brand United is more Man U than Red Devils.
Sorry for the rant

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

i dont think so.... from the way we have been playing this season think the ticket prises should go down because come the the last games of the season when we have nothing to play for and are playing as bad as we are at the minute how do we expect to get fans to turn up...
i for one will be there no matter what!!!
but i think we need changes befre its to late startin with the bored!!

I bet it takes a fair few grand at least mate! Drink prices are pretty steep, £2.70 for a small bottle of magners. £3 a pint i think? Wouldn't of took that much against hudds but the last home game against bradford it was pretty full, as was most other home games. If like someone has posted, the variety centre is owned by wilkinson's wife, does the proceeds go to her or the club?

Good luck with that. We couldn't even get a straight answer about why there were gates on the bottom of the club steps stopping people from standing there.

33025.jpg Any silverware is better than no silverware!:33025.jpg |
|
| im fed up with quite a few things.
obviously the way we are playing is p!ss poor at minute and hopefully that will change. its just the small things that are embarressing me more than anything
the music we play before the game is shocking and far too loud couldnt even chat in the shed without repeating myself 20 times, pre match entertainment is poor aswel( obviosuly down to money i know)
next that shambolic mascot we have is a joke i was emabarressed watchin him. probly the worst mascot ive ever seen, he looked like a tramp especially in trainers and the suit didnt fit him, bring back our devil!! he was more concerened in chattin up the cheer leaders!! i remember when i was a kid when the mascot went round and shook hands with the kids etc now he just does that crap dance.
also doing a mic test during the game while the ball was in play? whats that about its a joke!
sorry for the rant but it's not just the rugby im peed off with at the willows and there were a few infront of us who werent happy about it either.

| Something significant happened last Friday.
Up until then we basically knew where we were and what we had.
We knew our place !
Whether it was being served without a queue at the bar in the Club,or a realisation that the new Ground is not going to happen,or that Wilky is 65 and losing the will to see it through yet again,I don't know BUT it is not about the team.
Teams and players come and go but,all of a sudden there is a pessimism that is affecting everybody and it really would be good if JW could inject a bit of optimism from somewhere,because he is the only man that really knows................................

| Ignito looks like he is wearing a nappy.
As for half time "entertainment" all I can say is bring back Trevor.
None of the comments are aimed at the Flames who continue to be the most professional outfit associated with the club.
