I'll not be going I'm afraid. Nothing to do with United though, doing the Otley Run on Saturday for a mates B'day. Think I'll be the only Salford lad missing both!!



Didn't look at fixtures when I agreed to go ages ago!

I fancy us against Bradford though, not too disimilar to us, had a hiding against Hudds themselves and gelling new players in to the team. Defo a game both teams will be targetting to move up the table.

I believe a Mr W. Rooney has purposely got himself disciplined at work so he's not working on Saturday, just so he can attend the game.

Similarly I understand his former colleague Mr C. Tevez is planning to throw a sickie so he can be at The Willows.

I'll be there too, so that's three more

Or to the big screen in the stadium for the 2nd half? They managed to do it at the HJ to show the RU World Cup final after the Northern Union v All Golds game in 07 (though everyone left to avoid seeing that tosh).

I think the only thing that would stop me going is having City and United on the big screen

I'm playing cricket so missing both united and Salford! Gutted! If it rains and it's called off I will be watching united!

Count me in ..............

Lancaster City v Salford City ko 1:00 pm
Salford Reds v Bradford ko 4:45 pm

I'm gonna miss it... but nothing to do with football... Work related issues unfortunately.

Also... Even if there were no other reasons... I'd consider missing it anyway due to that refereeing appointment. I did say at the start of the season that I wouldn't go to any games officiated by that guy... I have broken that promise so far this season... but I come away wondering why I broke my promise. He ruins the spectacle.

will be there seeing that I have my season ticket - catch most of the 2nd half of United-City in the tavern.

I'll be the sad loner stood on my own, headphones in, ipod on full blast, refusing to speak to anyone, look at the scoreboard or engage in anyway with anything other than what's happening on the pitch to avoid hearing any scores before I go home and watch it on v+

That's the shi[size=1.[/sizetest excuse I've ever heard?!



Won't watch Salford in France ...
Won't watch Salford if he's ref'ing

What next??
- Won't watch Salford if it's windy?
- Won't watch Salford if the ref wears purple??
- Won't watch Salford if the day ends in 'Y'???


Just 'fess up and admit you don't really support Salford anymore?!

I'll be there. Couldn't care less about the wendyball. Besides, what is special about being a United or City fan? You're just one in millions. If you're a Salford fan you are in a fairly elite group watching the greatest game of all in a historic, atmospheric old ground in its final year.

Pretty much sums it up for me too.

We will be there as usual.Just cant understand why the kick off time couldnt be moved.Got a good feeling about this one though.

Good call

Hang on a minute... I said...

So where did I say that I have stuck to my guns and not actually gone because of this ? The word 'consider' says that I'd think about it... and the fact is that I've still gone to games officiated by him.

At the start of the season it was looking like I may have to pick and choose my games due to financial reasons... so I would therefore choose to avoid his games if it came to it as I would deem it a waste of money due to his poor standards... Would financial reasons be a good enough excuse for you ?

Expect around 600/700 Bradford supporters on Saturday so that'll help push the crowd.

The strange kick-off time of 16:45 doesn't help anyone I agree so expect that 600/700 support to be down to 400 as most will just stay and watch the game in the pub/home etc.

See you all on Saturday.

I just don't understand Sky's stance on this one - not only will there be an appalling attendance at the ground I would have thought the viewing figures are also gonna be low due to the Derby cup-semi at the same time - absolutely crazy IMO
