Season tickets go on sale Tuesday , leaflets have already gone to print ,
the two other names frequently mentioned to me are Karl Pryce ( he's 6'6" high & 19 stone , and out of contract, suppose that makes him a 'massive' signing ) and Paul McShane from Leeds on a season long loan as cover at hooker.
none of which would initiate hordes of potential new season ticket holders to flood down Weaste Lane.
If it really is a Big Name ( see previous 33 pages for hints ) and a potential crowd puller. why would Salford leave him out of their season ticket campaign ?, no hang on this is Salford ..

I would imagine it's because the deal could not be done before they went to print on the season ticket brochure. If the club had held off putting out info about season tickets we would all be complaining about how unprofessional the club are.

Example:- The club have made eight new signings and haven't bothered to get new season ticket details out yet. What a lost marketing opportunity they all need sacking! We need bigger crowds and they can't even send out season ticket info on time, what a joke club. Can you imagine some of our fans reaction? I could!

It's one of those situations where the club could be critised whatever they do. What would you have done different Middleman, left it another month before you sent out the season ticket info?
