The way the Salford fans talk it's easier to get to base camp on Everest than it is to get to there ground the funny thing is Sale RU fans don't seem to have the same problem

Not to mention the reserve ref, J Cobb.

| Quote ="The Perry Boy"That doesn't really tell the whole story though does it?
Salford's average attendance before the 6 point deduction was higher then the figure you stated. Who's to say that if we didn't get the deduction that our crowds wouldn't of maintained if not increased as we'd be in the top 8.
Leigh's highest attendance was a game where it was free admission! This will obviously boost their average as that crowd was probably nearly 3 times bigger then normal. What was their average before this game?'"
Don't make me laugh. Koukash in the past has spent millions on star signings to bring the crowds in, broke the salary cap to have these star names, rebranded the club back to it's original name, spent a fortune bringing Sheens over, tried reducing ticket prices. Have any of these brought any of the 200 odd thousand people in Salford District alone, never mind surrounding areas, to the AJ Bell? No. With the exception of Leeds, you have the biggest potential catchment for fans in the whole of Super League, yet the worst crowds. Make all of the excuses you like about stadium location etc.., but the glaringly obvious thing to fans of all other clubs is that the people of Salford/Manchester don't care much for Rugby League. It's sad to say, I'd like to see every city in the country be able to fill a stadium every week with Rugby League supporters, it would be fantastic for the sport, but it isn't going to happen any time soon unfortunately. This isn't anything to do with a like or dislike of any particular club, its an observation of something that's staring us all in the face. Salford/City of Manchester is predominantly football, Leigh is a Rugby League town.

| Can't see anything other than a Salford win and relegation Saturday.
We're the worst team in the league and our back row is non existen
I've posted this before but Eugene was a terrible appointment.
Best hope is they are a broken group and not interested but I think they'll be keen tomorrow.

| Let's leave attendances to one side as the people you whinge to are those who attend the games.
(As an aside, Sale fans I know [and I know several as I work in Stockport state the figures are higher than they experience.)
We're not confident, you've got 3 over us this year, and neither of us have been the worst team in SL this year. I'm not looking forward to the game, you're not looking forward to the game, let's get it over with.
And hopefully we'll meet, as our respective clubs, in SL in 2018.

| About 29 hours left of this torrid season. Heres hoping we survive. Weather forecast for tomorrow has improved, playing in heavy rain is more of a lottery.
Regardless of the outcome, Rovers Till I Die.

Oh no, mind you, surely he has to get one of his predictions correct at some point.

| My favourite was in a play off match in around 2004 when we were getting humped and so tried to get the match abandoned by keeping all the balls following each conversion.

Didn't we get a club fine from that game because of that, and the fact someone pinched the photocopied price signs from the turnstiles where the cheeky feckers had upped the price for us going?

What worries me , is whoever goes down HKR or Salford will find it extremely hard to get back, reason being Finance,will HKR find a backer with the passion and drive of Derek B at Leigh, or will Marwan Koukash stay and put his millions into a declining Salford,if NO to both questions then I fear both teams could go into free fall next season.
Nobody likes to see a RL Club struggling but it's a fact of life in the Championship, poor crowds , not much RL funding, no cash from TV,a bleak outlook,which will be difficult to recover from.

I seem to recall we did, I always liked it when we used to remove the "discount" for the visit of our slum dwelling neighbours.

We'd all want that. But as I've been posting all week, this is the moment us fans have to do our part. Just like all season we've veen turning up to cheer them in, this week is when it REALLY counts. There's little we can do in reality to change the game other than to scream our suppirt for the lads and hope it's enough to give them that little bit extra motivation to see them home.
