There's a lot of people predicting Salford to finish outside the eight. If these people don't want to take us seriously I'm not in the least bit bothered. Personally I much prefer it this way because it takes some pressure off.

It makes laugh how people keep saying our signings aren't that great. There are only Leeds and Huddersfield with the same level of quality in the half backs, and I'd like to know who all these amazing superstar second rowers are that people on these forums seem to think are better than Hock and Hansen?

I don't really know where Salford will end up this season but I'm confident of two things...
1) it will be entertaining to watch
2) if they don't do it this time it won't be long before they do.

People said the same about Man City not that long ago. Bet their fans are happy enough.

The fact we have people coming on here with lets be honest a slight whiff of jealousy is just brilliant. For years we've been little old Salford - a lot of peoples 2nd team, the also ran's if you will. Never in our clubs history have we been given such an opportunity like we have so it makes me smile even more when I see cheese wits like this chap coming on here dogging our chances. Must see us as a rival because I don't remember him saying the same things this time last year.

I understand that it is a 'slow news day', but, you really should get over this "little old Salford" routine it's a bit old hat.

The OP is obviously a bit 'challenged' but from what I've read on here and on VT, most posters seem to be giving Salford a fair assessment. Some have you in or around 6th-8th others as high as 4th-6th, much in line with what's been posted by your own fans.

if there is any whiff of jealousy we all know that someone's seasoned pro signing is someone else's Dad's Army recruit, I think you guys will go well this year FWIW. Will we find out some more on Wednesday?

I do agree with you on this one. The 'jealous' posts don't sit with me. It's a cringe-worthy statement at best, especially ironic to come from fans of a Club that finished where we did last year. To add insult to injury, to say anyone is jealous of a side that has not even played a competitive game together yet is just asking to be trolled at a later date. I think most people are giving us pretty fair positions too.

As for Wednesday, I personally wont read anything into it. We could run in a hat full of tries or concede a cricket score. As long as there's no injuries it better prepares the squad for the first real important game.

Agreed, although apart from heralding the new season this particular 'friendly' does have some interesting aspects to it as there's a lot of players on show with plenty to prove.

Here's hopping for a decent game as opposed to a continual series of interchanges

Sorry Rico you got me wrong. I am not for one minute saying we are little old Salford, this is merely a perception from other fans, I think we will do alright this season like u. Butcher - I think there is a little jealousy when a team goes out and recruits heavily - did we not feel a little of the same when Warrington and other clubs invested in the past? You speak to any fan from a club struggling financially and try telling me they don't look a little enviously at our set up - I know I did the same only 12 months ago.

I think tomorrow brings the chance of bragging rights and very little else. Will be a good barometer to play against a big pack to see how we go, still think we're a bit light in the backs though and it's teams like Wire who will expose this.

Are the club going to do the match day coverage thing again? In hospital and it would hekp pass the time if they were.
