RD2 | Salford Red Devils (A) : Tue Feb 18, 2025 4:43 pm  

I enjoy the visit to Salford anyway, and given the pre season optimism was particularly looking forward to this one. Regardless of their financial issues, really fancied us to make it 2 from 2 and consolidate a strong start. Not at all sure what to expect now, from the team they put out to what we'll serve up. Anyone else going?

I’m going, I enjoy going to Salford and can’t make the game there in a few weeks.

I’ve got a feeling they’ll still be under the 1.2m cap! This takeover seems like a right soap opera.

We just need to show a reaction this week, another performance like Saturday isn’t acceptable

I know RL isn't football, but takeovers generally take weeks or months to be ratified, so I'm not sure why people don't seem to understand why it hasn't been ratified yet

Especially as one the people seems to be a RAP artist, only in RL!

True, although you'd think proof of funds wouldn't cause too much delay. Unless...

I'll wait to see the squad before I decide whether to go.

Ours that is, I couldn't give a monkey's about Salford's.

Looks like you'll be playing Salfords cup squad as no news still on the takeover, silence from the club so clearly not going to be this week

Really? Salford could become RL's answer to Wrexham

50 cent? I thought that was the cap value of this week's side.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the RFL gave Salford ‘special dispensation’ or some such BS to play their full strength squad because of the BBC nationwide coverage of the first Sts game and the backlash that followed.
