Agreed it's a nothing issue in the grand scheme of things.

As for Bradford, do you mean them taking Sidlow off us? It's a professional sport and that's the way things go. When Widnes were in the mire, we pinched Myler off them and you then pinched him off us. That's all part of sport even if it does stick in the throat.

Troll alert

Agreed.

On the Bradford front it wasn't anyone thing in particular that got me thinking 'eh up', but, more a perception reading their board rather than actual dealings club made. That old addage, "do unto others etc" was quickly forgotten as their situation improved to quickly IMO even in the arena of professional sport.

May be I'm wrong, there ia lot of good will shown to most clubs beyond the rivalry that exists on the surface without any competition we don't have a competition.

Good luck to you this year and lay off beating us at yoiur place this time eh?

If that's aimed at me then your wrong, or don't you like visitors.....you're not sat in Langworthy 'duelling your banjo' are you?

Sorry Salford, but you are going to be a average side for a number of years yet!

Keep dreaming. . . . . . it's all you have.

Have you even read this thread? Your revelation isn't too ground breaking. To bring you up to speed, we are all very happy to have a club to support after the position we have been in over the past couple of months. We don't expect to be challenging in the near future - however, at least we have a future. I'm not sure who you support, I assume Warrington, and if I'm right you should know that positive change is possible with the right backing.

Do us a favour, and don't come the "Sorry Salford" here. This fanbase are delighted that our club is still around. Of course we hope we can field a competitive team and grow in stature as a club in Super League, and we know it's possible as we were at Wilderspool watching our team against Warrington in bottom of the table scraps.

So if it's ok with you, we will dream. And if we can wind up the big clubs whilst we're doing it, all the better.

LANGWORTHY?

It was just the first part of Salford that came to mind as I typed. no disrespect to Langworthy but i've never heard of "anytown"

LMS film about Rochdale

Probably true. However we still have a 21 year window to claim the superleague title before emulating Warringtons current 58 years since being crowned champions.

Ok as in HILL? Thanks and enjoy your season

A "window" that unfortunately for me isn't yet closed, so keep plugging away. On reflection, I would certainly take Warringtons 'barren' period in comparison to yours.

BTW are we sure that 'Mr Zoo days' is a Wire?

Personally, I wouldn't take any barren period. By its definition it's not worthy of note. Besides, it's just nit-picking at each other which serves nothing.

Looking at previous posts (all 6 of them...) it suggests he is. The attitude matches up, too. Seems he's got a short memory about his own club, but quite a few do.

Plus wasn't Wilderspool nicknamed The Zoo?

Would explain his username.

Indeed, well spotted.

Whilst I might agree with your opening statement, after all who would take a barren period if they had a choice? I have to say that I think that barren periods are worthy of note and serve a great deal rather than "nothing".

Only by assessing them at the time can you hope to get out of them, unless you believe in Lady Luck? Only by reflecting on them can you fully appreciate the good times.

Hope you turn your fortunes around

Good detective work, you and Mr Perry Boy I'd not botheed to check Mr Zoo days' extensive back catalogue.

Let's hope that you all remain well grounded and true to your roots should the prospect of better times ahead become a reality

they'll sell him to us now , another bits fallen off him .

Are you attempting to come off as patronising and sarcastic? Not that I know why I'm wasting my time replying to you.

You tell him Ginge old buddy.

Go on then I'll admit it, I'm just interested in your club's situation from a couple of angles in that although from Warrington I live IN Salford and know a few of your speccies. I went to school on Weaste Lane at the time of Dixon, Coulman, Watkins etc

Additionally, although Warrington were probably never anyone's second favourite team even in our darkest days, the arrival of Simon Moran and his Take That ticket salary cap economics changed the perception of others towards us and quite possibly the same will happen to you?

In short, I think that we live in interesting times.

That's fair enough, I think most of us would agree with that logic. Perhaps it's the perception of the written word that's leading me to think there's something a little "off" with the way you've been wording things.

I'll leave it there then until nearer the 15th March and my prematch pint in the Jules Verne
