Might want to get it double-checked if it comes back something like "Michigan Rouge est une déception dans la chambre".

| How about a banner with something radical like 'Salford RLFC' on it?

| How about everyone lobs a few pennies in and we get one thanking the Doc?
Failing that we have to go along the welcome to hell line as I think it's a real winner and let's face it many have been calling for a change back to the Red Devils so why not fully embrace it.

Welcome to hell definitely is the right choice.

| Quote: Diavolo Rosso "I'd definitely check that slogan with someone at the club, as there are plenty of sensitive souls about (apparently) who might find something like that offensive.
I always fancied doing a banner that said "LES DIABLES ROUGES S'ELEVANT" (The Red Devils are rising ... may be slightly off, anyone with better French is welcome to correct it).'"
This why the entire world should speak England like what we does.
Here's the reply and it just opens a can of worms.
Quote: Diavolo Rosso "You want to say that they are gaining force, that they are getting better and stronger?'"
Is there an answer to that?

| Just had another reply.
Quote: Les Diables Rouges gagnent du terrain "Have been thinking about it and for me the best slogan - in case you do want to express what I wrote in the previous message - would be
Sounds good to me.

| Banner sounds a good idea but I'd be more inclined to go with something basic like Les Diables Rouges/Dirty Old Town/Salford RLFC.
I'd leave all the 'welcome to hell' stuff to the club as it's more of a branding thing, it's really got very little to do with Salford RLFC or the fans. On a practical level, it'd be embarrassing if we're getting slammed by someone or if the ground has got 15 people in for a cup tie versus Hunslet. All the Latin/French stuff is a bit poncified for me.
Either way, good luck with getting it started and past the politburo at the stadium. As someone else mentioned banners can be a nightmare to put up every week as well.

| While it has been mentioned, can we lose the links to "Dirty old Town" when dealing with visiting fans...
the last verse doesn't do Salford proud:
"I'm going to make,
Me a good sharp axe;
Shining steel,
Tempered in,
the Fire.
I'll chop you down,
Like an old dead tree.
Dirty old town, ..."
And there's nobody more a fan of James/McColl than me.

| I don't have a problem printing a banner at my job and I'm more than happy to fund this myself; I just need someone to design it for me as my attempt is a bit rubbish.
Personally I think we need as many banners as possible for the start of the new season. If it gets picked-up on Sky's Super League coverage it could potentially entice more people to the ground to watch us.

| Could you not arrange a translation in Arabic too at the bottom?

Les Diables Rouges s'élèvent.
Quote: Diavolo Rosso ""Les Diables Rouges gagnent du terrain" '"
Sorry fella, that's just merde. It also means "the red devils are making ground" which sounds like we're celebrating finally getting out of our own half!
Personally I'd go with "Les Diables Rouges se réveillent", meaning "the red devils awaken". Or stick with something in English.

Think it might look cool, I'd approach the club with that as I'd bet the Doc would love the fans having something like in the stand to make it feel moe like the old shed.'"
