[iMASSIVE GAME FOR THE REDS ON FRIDAY.....

I would love it if we win this game..

And after yesterday's fine or in some peoples eyes 'SHOCK' win over the highly rated Warrington Wolves anything is possible now for the rest of the season.

COME ON SALFORD CITY REDS....[/i

We smothered Briers on Sunday, we dealt with Westwood who was having a superb match, Matty Blythe was contained : we need to do the same smothering to Rangi Chase and Danny Orr, we need to deal with Ryan Hudson, we need to contain Thompson and Arundel.

And we need to let Ratchford and Broughton loose at them when they are retreating in defence.

Come on you Reds.

Got a bit of momentum now, need to look at winning this game, with Crusaders and Harlequins to come it could be a MASSIVE result in the context of the rest of the season.

C'mon Reds.

[iYOU JUST MAKE SURE YOUR IN ATTENDANCE "MacclesfieldRed"

YOU KNOW WHY....[/i

I will be there



I dont miss a game until the Hull KR match, so theres a garenteed 3 more straight wins!!

clarke is more of a threat than hudson (as is milner) he is extremely quick from dh, feka will struggle if clarkes starts running at him.

Should be a good game, wish i could be there.

Hopefully we can carry on from the Warrington game on Friday vs Cas, although usually we slip up the week after a shock win.

In light of previous posts I will wear a Bin Laden mask so the team won't know I am there.

Very true hopefully we can buck the trend, our next 3 games are winnable Cas at home then Crusaders away and then Quins at home....struggled against Crusaders recently but hopefully pick a win up there.

when was the last time we did actually win 3 on the trot?

In Super League it was 2006; Catalans (a), Huddersfield (h) & Warrington (a).

Getting misty eyed thinking about that run and season. Magic.

Any idea on your team?


We still have our shortage in the front row, but it's looking better than it did a few weeks ago!

Should be a good game. It will be interesting to see who the bookies make favourite. Don't think i'll be putting any money on this one!

[iWHAT TEAM TO YOU EXPECT TO SEE on FRIDAY?

[/i

No need to shout!

we have a few rested and a few possibly coming back from injury so its hard to call but if youngquest and isa are back i think it will look something like this


mathers
youquest
arundel
isa
dixon
chase
orr
emmit
milner
jackson
ferres
aspinwall
hudson

widders
fozzard
clark
mcgoldrick

with holmes, snitch, massey, thompson and owen (and possibly jones) to take the place of any that aren't fit.

youngquest in for owen, think he went off injured last week. no other changes to squad from last game

He doesn't mean to shout but he's deaf with a speech impediment

Salford 22 Cas 37.

Attendance 3807.

isnt aspinwall getting banged up tomorrow ?

Chase and ORR are the boys to watch, if our forwards dominate they they wont be able to play its that simple, get on the front foot and be positive

I see we've struck lucky with the officials. From the Guardian.....

James Child, the referee who allowed Bradford to score one of their two tries against Saints on the seventh tackle, has been dropped from this weekend's round of Super League fixtures. He will be a touch-judge in Friday's game between Salford and Castleford.

SALFORD CITY REDS SQUAD:

Patten, Broughton, Nero, Jewitt, Henry, Ratchford, Holdsworth, Cashmere, Godwin, Boyle, Neal, L. Adamson, Anderson, Smith, Gleeson, Gibson, Sidlow, Paleaaesina, Spencer.

CASTLEFORD TIGERS SQUAD:

Arundel, Aspinwall, Chase, Clark, Dixon, Emmitt, Ferres, Fozzard, Hudson, Jackson, Massey, Mathers, McGoldrick, Milner, Orr, Snitch, Thompson, Widders, Youngquest.

I must have missed that when watching it and don't remember sky mentioning it either
