Not really? nobody expected anything less tonight, currently we have nothing, were relying on young lads to get us through, when Dr Koukash get some players in then we'll have a look from there.

I hear Gareth Ellis maybe available.

Ive got a feeling unless salford start getting good crowds Dr Marwan Koukash gona lose alot of money

How come there were only just over 5000 people tonight I thought that was very disapointing to be honest.

He knows that he's not stupid.the crowds won't come until the team is winning he's in a process of doing that.

Reasonable crowd considering it only went on sale On weds. Vievers picking Murphy over evalds and mccgoldrick over sneyd were the biggest disappointments.

He already said he aint in it for the money.

It is going to take some time before Salford can compete on the field. The most important thing is they still exist and the new owner can resolve off field and on field issues in time.

Maybe.

Although, if you listen to PV in the big press conference he says that a few of the younger players are not ready in his opinion. Which you have to respect. Sticking new players in is going to take a little time anyway.

One hell of a job to do both on and of the park,enjoyed the game,nice to meet the Dr after the game in the fans bar,even gave us a tip for a horse running on monday at chester. So in my eyes a good crowd,a nightmare getting away,an accident i believe didnt help,hope nobody was seriously hurt....Just a thought, why sign players on loan who your not sure about when you might as well give the kids a chance and then strengthen the side with proven players your sure about. Now mr salford as gone i hope the good Dr considers playing on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.

I have read that some one died in the road accident last night.

In the end the game must have been a bit of a side show yesterday.

Lets not forget Wigan won the LLs last year and scored that kind of tally against sides like Saints.

It's going to take some months for Salford to construct a team. They are more or less starting from a worse position than Widnes did last year. It took Widnes nearly 20 games to get some kind of form.

Yes ,a young lad lost his life,tragic,and theres us moaning about getting home late.My heart goes out to his family and friends.

Sad to hear if true, just hope it isn't due to the queues caused by the traffic for the parking that has helped cause this.
