they are going to have a good team next year, theyve already signed V.anderson and chris nero aswel as matty smith and a few more signings to be revealed apparently, on paper i think they will make the play offs next year

He does or they do? I don't know one Salford fan who thinks he came from out youth system to be honest.

Absolutely, we are going to be considered by many as obvious candidates to lose our franchise, if so I'd have no compliants if we really are proven the worst offenders.
I've never criticised any teams recruitment , and a ' clutch of foreign players ' can apply to a majority of current SL sides . All I know is the youth we have promoted in the past couple years have struggled for form & confidence as they need better / experienced players alongside them it's all about getting the balnce right and putting a competitive team on the field to build support at the same time .

I don't disagree with any of that.

Like I say, the reason of my post and using Salford as example is mainly aimed towards anti-Wigan critics on nationwide Rugby League TV and radio broadcasts and on messageboards such as RLFANS.

I meant him I dont know any other Salford fans so I couldnt possibly label you all.

I understand your frustation mate.

You have a similar number of overseas players to most other teams in SL, but being Wigan, aka probably the most successful club in British RL ever, you are one of rugby leagues most hated clubs so people are going to snipe. At least you guys are bringing over some quality players and generally always have done.

You need to pick your battles more wisely, as currently it isn't all Wigan against the world. Good luck in the play-offs, hope you win the Grand Final.
