To be honest we didn't deserve the win, we had the ball near their line for little patches and looked clueless. We gave our to many stupid penalties like usual which probably lost us the game.

Went to the game -Not great - watched it on TV - not great advertisement for RL.
Can't blame Ref most don't do us any favours but Ganson was OK this time!
Crusaders obviously watched our last 2 performances and defended against Ratchford/Broughton/Patten
We were lacking in passion/aggression and ideas - should have had a better kicking game, perhaps short ball over the top - they were always fast up on defense.
All their 3 tries could be described as lucky or opportunist!
However - always live in hope - will be interesting against Cas next week - usual case will sneak a win or get hammered!

even with free tickets people would not come, we have been at the Willows 110 years yet there are people we live on Salford Precinct in the flats who have no idea where it is, there are very few pubs in Salford to build up support at and get people in. We are not a Rugby city never have been, and i don't think we ever will, and I don't know how to change that, even Swinton supporters trust has more members than the Salford supporters trust, Salford has a general apathy about it and a can't be arsed attitude.

Thats true, but what are the club doing about it? We had golden angel a few years ago andf that seemed to work - well 6000 against swinton would suggest so anyway

Surely, the club should be doing more then. I drive round wigan and see posters billboards advertising for the warriors....theres just nothing around the salford aread

we need to build crowd momentum now and I would love to know what the clubs plans are for this
