I think I actually enjoyed this more than when we hammered them a few seasons ago.
Every inch and every point was hard earned

Ah so you are saying the thing that changed things was just money? Because Ellis has no involvement in running the club or coaching.

Like it or not, we played a good tactical game to beat Wigan. And great as he is Fifita is not a tactical genius.

You have to feel for these individuals who've dug a hole so deep that they can't climb out or even put the head up and cleanly enjoy a result like last night.
Still a couple more to make an appearance. Anyone been round and knocked on Willzay's door yet?

You cannot deny the positive impact of bringing back Fifita and signing Gale both of which I am sure resulted from the sponsorship of the new board member. It could be argued that yes money did help because I doubt either of these would have happened especially when the club admitted they wanted to sign Gale at the start of the season but didn’t have the resources necessary to do so.

No pain no gain wrote:

Using Leigh as a fine example of how it can be done is short sighted to say the least. All their spending goes into their first team. They have a reserve team that hasn't fulfilled a fixture this season, no academy, no ladies team and no pdrl team. Salford are another side were all the funding is spent solely on the first team. If every team in the competition operated like this rugby league will cease to exist in the iong term.

Salford have a Ladies team playing in SL2
Salford have a reserve team (admittedly not a great one)
Salford have a PDRL team
Salford applied for an Elite Academy license and were refused by Super League (so not our fault)

Nowt like a factual post though.

You're welcome.

PS. Well done last night, great result
