I believe Wilky is also behind Lockes new ginger doo.

It is time to move on and be positive.
It's just a shame that Mike's bile and character assassination of the guy who kept this club going for years has tarnished such a positive thread.
I couldn't be there yesterday ,and I know it wouldn't have happened under Wilky(different times and styles), but by all accounts it was tremendous.
Really looking forward to the best season in years and a good tough squad.

Being a Salford fan we have a way of taking what was a very positive open day and turning into a negative rant in the past

I attended the open day & was blown away with the marketing, which has gone up a level or two. I also liked what MK said about the mistakes he made last year, long gone were is bold predictions. If anyone wanted proof of his commitment you only had to see how he operated yesterday. Finally well done Salford for recognizing local rugby clubs.

Well said Bonita and its time to move on and look forward to our best season since the 1960s hopefully. What a team has been assembled.

Anyway for Mikes ears only Please understand Rugby League clubs do NOT make money. Wilkys huge losses are there to be seen in the Public Domain - Your Grand Dads are not. Tot the debts up and you will see they total many Millions of Pounds and to cap it all since Iain Watson`s demise any Willows `assets` he had have now gone. So as I said - time to draw a line and move on as this Season is going to be Special I feel. Outsiders for Wembley even?

Another positive from yesterday was Marwan stating categorically that Salford would remain "In Salford" while he was running the club. He mentioned that they were looking at the possibility of putting one or two games on the road in Manchester to spread the word and promote the club.
We as fans need to support this by making sure we attend these games so the atmosphere is great for neutrals attending. What better atmosphere could it be with a good turnout and some of our usual songs being sung.
As stated earlier we can market the club and play our own part in marketing the club!!

Yes it would also be great to see a big away following for the opener at Warrington.

Where we have a start of 12 points with Bet Fred - surely worth a crack with the team we have assembled.

Especially with it being the first game. I'd prefer us to play Warrington and then Saints in the opening two rather than about half a dozen games in when they are in full stride.

I wasn’t there yesterday but was this new museum/heritage bit open?

Re: Todays Open Day : Tue Dec 16, 2014 1:13 am  

Couldn't make this open day either, but from the previous one and what I read the SRDF set the museum up for occasions like this, not as a permanent feature. ( I may be wrong, but am very sure I will be corrected if I am)
