should be a entertaining games how much to get in

I think is four quid

Or free for season ticket holders. I'm desperate to make it, from what I’ve seen this year, there have been some crackin’ games, however I have some last minute shopping to do before heading off to Wembley on Friday, so it could be rush, rush, rush!

Asda 6 crates of booze, there 3 mins shopping done

Anyone else popping down tonight?

Can't make it, but all the best to lads, hopefully they can restore a bit of pride

The Reds actualy need to win by 23. It's currently Salford 16 Bradford 0 after 12 minutes.

Keep the updates coming please matey.

no as we score points against them their goal dif gos down as ours goes up hence 12 - 0 will give us +8 and them +6
currently + 12 to +2

It'll be my pleasure, HT Salford 22 Bradford 8.

Cheers!

Salford 38 Bradford 8 after 53 minutes.

Go on you red men. Put 'em to the sword! "We want 60 - we want 60..."

Full time Salford 48 Bradford 12!

PARKING

Please note that parking within the grounds of the stadium will be limited to pass holders only, and entry to Edge Hall Road itself will therefore be strictly controlled.

Probably the one good thing to come out of the season and we have to search around for info

Agreed.

Would be good to see the lads paraded around the pitch on Sunday in recognition of reaching the playoffs
(although they will inevitably have been beaten by Wigan the day before?!

)

Would imagine it will be a slightly weakened under 20s side with the likes of Sneyd/Owen etc lilkely to be in the first team squad? Might still go though.

Just wanted to add my congratulations to Alan and his "boys" for their achievments so far this year. Big ask for them at Wigan Saturday, sadly i can`t be there. After paying the money i have done to see Muse I intend to be there and make a day of it !
If i remember correctly one of the areas we fell down on at the first franchise bid was our youth system, so to get a team into the play offs (and to do well in same, I Hope ) within 2 seasons of the initial bid is a great achievment and is one of many ticks for the next bid.
Seems the future is looking bright
