No I don`t think everything the club does is `ace` but unlike yourself I support the club home and away - thats what fans are all about isnt it? Far too many Salford fans are just living in the past - those days will never be repeated so if you feel by continuing to gripe at every turn then maybe it would be a good idea to pack it in.

EB I have read many of your posts in the past and know you are a Salford fan who wants your Club to be successful which is natural , I feel your posts are realistic and to the point, I agree if not for the points deduction Salford wouldn't be where they are so it's not down to Team performances,I know every Club has its negative posters and that's no disrespect to Solly who is entitled to his opinion and have his say, but the 8's are far from over, I feel you will finish on at least 8 points in the 8's so it ain't over till its over.Charlie knows.I've had a decent day on the Horses today EB , 6 WINNERS ,not good prices but still winners pity I didn't have a Heinz bet.Good Luck in the 8's.

I can really identify with your assessment, I have continued to be a season ticket holder & have supported for more than 40 odd years, however over the last year feel I am going through the motions. I stay because I don't want to give up on the only professional club in the city of Salford, a sport I played at school & have supported ever since.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing but looking back the club died when it moved from the Willows. Passing down Weaste lane the other day I thought why we had ever contemplated moving from its heart beat to a wasteland in Barton, clearly pushed by the RFL who told us we would never be considered for the super league at the Willows, the very same organisation that continues to put the knife in now.
I think it easy for other to patronize or ridicule our support but since moving to Barton I defy any other supporters to injure the disproportional penalties inflicted on the club year after year.
I also believe the owner as a death wish on the genuine proud supporters of Salford who no longer want to be part of the circus.

Finally I don't have any issues of playing rugby in the championship, however we first need a club & supporter as the main ingredient, sadly I think we are sitting on the edge of neither.

Its funny how anything goes now..
