Re: New Salford Red Devils : Wed Oct 18, 2017 8:11 am  
Did there have to be a re-brand ?
Not sure why they (Salford) have done this, Salford Red Devils seemed a decent "brand".
THe location, ease of access (parking) and general apathy of the fans seem to be the main reasons for low attendances and very little to do with the badge.
On a side note, what happened with the Willows Ground, has it been flattened or, has it been moth balled.

Think there are more important things to concentrate on than the club badge.

I imagine it was done to coincide with the fans ownership of the club, trying a different approach to speak to the people of Salford, as well as an effort to cut ties with the Marwan era that pis£ed a lot of fans off.

looks like my daughter won the competition at her school to design it, why didnt they ask the guys who set up red devils apparel if they could use their logo or they could have designed a few and let the fans decide ?? ill be buying my salford gear from red devils apparel instead.

That car parks not gonna get easier to get out of anytime soon


The car park will be easier to get out of by the end of this month. The new bridge has been completed and they are now just finishing connecting the new road to the A57 and the Trafford Centre.

As others have pointed out bees were on the Salford coat of arms before they were on Manchester's.

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.

There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT:

My thoughts exactly. I think they sealed their fate when they protested the potential Manchester move.
