When passion and skill work together, the end result is often a masterpiece.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47867.jpg



If any of that is aimed at Me, (Louise/MsCityRedGirl) I will stand by my Opinions staunchly, I truly care for this club , Ive put more than my fair share of Money and Timein, Ive backed the club even when it was knowingly in the wrong. All most supporters are asking for is Honest Communications at a Time that could ultimately prove fatal to the future of Our Once Great club. There is constructive criticism and there is just ranting and I don't believe my articles or views are of the latter.

my earlier post was NOT aimed at anyone asking for answers it was aimed at those people that have backed themselves into a position that leaves themselves with the only way out is for the club to fail so it results in them making allegations that are not true.
hope this makes my position clear

not asking for blind faith that's why I said "i agree many of the things at the club have been wrong for a long time" and there is nothing wrong with wanting questions answered but people telling lies is different and every bit as dangerous as blind faith.'"


No problem, after reading it again I realised I took that part out of context and I do agree with the point you were making. Fingers crossed this all gets resolved soon so we can move on.

Ken Gill could make the ball talk.:



Some encouraging news - and I'm getting desperate for some!!! Mind you, I don't believe everything I read in the papers.

I really wouldn't get worked up. ANY investor will be doing due diligence on the situation and will know far more about the position of the club, its sponsors, its potential deals, potential signings etc than Mr Barker - he's not written anything that isn't in the public domain already (when does he ever, given that he seems to get most of his stories straight off the message boards!).

Salary cap - you're havin a laugh.:



Hope the latest 'news' is correct however it seems amazing how a positive story can be leaked when we have reached the stage of almost open revolt from the fans. Good tactic to get the fans to pipe down or is there genuine interest? Hope it is the latter.

At risk of getting a load of abuse here... I rang Neil yesterday to speak about this, and it has plenty of substance by the sound of it... and a story will not impact anything.

My reference to substance was the omission of a quote to backup the story. This would suggest to me that somebody has a loose tongue and is leaking sensitive information to Neil Barker. Considering the clubs statement on the 19th I can only imagine this source to be someone connected with the Council, Peel, the Stadium Management Company or the RFL.

Do we think NB will change his in my view negative stance when / if we get new owners LF? = new start = clean slate you read sales reports / articles they are so positive and welcoming and warm while in my eyes there is always a sinister undertone when there is a salford story might be worth an ask

If you compare sales coverages both in paper and on social media in the MEN it dwarfs ours, they have twitter accounts run by the MEN promoting positive news stories all the time for me NB or somebody in his department should take it upon themselves to do somethin simular.

I do feel JW or somebody has in the past has run over his dog or somethin icon_wink.gif sometimes perhaps if we stuck an extra sugar in his tea or invited his family and friends free to games every week for a meal n beers he might look at promoting the club a bit positively, being a jorno he has to get the big story that's fine but I wish he looked at the bigger picture with sale ready to swoop in we need to fight back and be positive and without him helping us its not goin to happen

There was another bloke called Ben Collins he usually does bury and a bit of wigan who did a few articles while NB was I presume away or busy but I though he showed how the club can be highlighted in a positive way but not OTT just like sale.

Quote: The optimist "Do we think NB will change his in my view negative stance when / if we get new owners LF?

It's really difficult knowing Neil as I do, as I have been criticised in the past for backing him... but the Neil Barker I know seems a far cry from the guy who is perceived to be the root of all evil on here. He's desperately keen to see Salford do well, but he can only report on what he is given. The fact is... it's been hard to find much positive to report on over the last few years and that saying about making a silk purse from a sows ear has never been more apt. It would make his job an awful lot easier if he had a ton of good stuff to report. If there is positive to report... he'll report it... if not... he'll report that... and some of the stuff that I have been told in the past would make your toes curl... but he chooses not to report it because of the damage it could cause... although saying that... he probably wouldn't be allowed to report it by his bosses as the MEN do need to keep some kind of decent relationship with the club, and it really isn't that kind of newspaper.

As for the comparison to Sale... He'd be the first to try and dwarf that with Salford stuff... so it's the sports editors that need to be taken to task on that.

Overall... I've never had any major issues with him. Yes... I have phoned him complaining a few times, but listening to his reasons each time... I've always felt that it was justified.

So all in all... If we have the positives I believe they will be reported in a positive way... but it's really not been easy to find much recently unless we make it up... So the question is... Should he make it up to make everyone happy ?

If people feel otherwise, then that's fair enough. But my own personal views of him are that they guy isn't all bad. My feelings for this rugby club will always overshadow my loyalty for a journo... but truthfully... He's always been fine with me and I take people how I find them.

Just digging into Securitas and Christ I had no idea they were as big an outfit as they are, makes you wonder how a Swedish firm became interested in RL?

Just hope that it comes to fruition as over the years have worked for a Scandinavian company and worked closely with lots of others and they in my experience all go about things the right way and I couldn't see them getting involved if they didn't want to do it right and make a real go of it.

There's a fledgling Swedish rugby league competition. Possible way in for a Swedish Super League franchise through Salford, merger or otherwise?
