this will not be the end, or even the beginning of the end.
It is merely the end of the beginning

You may not read this but just incase you do, you'll find a majority of supporters who dont post on here don't feel like you, take your rose tinted glasses off.

I think the expectations from the fans this season were not too high. I feel the unrest and justifiable criticism after the last 3 games is down to the supporters witnessing a distinct lack of team spirit, effort and some truly awful defensive play.

Who knows maybe it's a blessing in disguise that these problems have come to light early in this 3-year franchise period, allowing the club to address immediately where they are going wrong and what they can do to improve and catch up?

I think of equal concern to the club right now is the risk of losing valuable support and revenue at a time when the club really needs it.

If you have a better solution I'm all ears??? . . . wealthy salford tycoon's haven't exactly been cueing up down Willows Road in the last 25 years with open cheque books, wanting to take over have they? :wink: FGS the club can't even attract any new directors prepared to give a few grand a year let alone a new owner!

Should we not be applauding the Chairman's generosity and commitment to this club over many years, rather than taking cheap shots when the chips are down? . . . Or is there an ulterior motive behind these personal attacks in the hope JW will respond by digging even deeper into his pockets for us? :THINK:

£17 i paid against harliquinns, i could of gone to the ashley brook spent £15 on bitter gone to chandos chipppy got a bag of salt and pepper chips and watched a good game on sky , but i chose the willows as i have been going since the days of watkins and co , but this team showed no efffort at all,it was rubbish , i am sick of every season the evening news big ging us up , its the same old rubbish year in year out ,perhaps mr wilky you should have a good look at yourself as you have agreed to these signings ,spend your time on your new hotel in the park and let someone who cares about the club and the fans run it [/b]


We can only spend a % of what we earn, salary cap springs to mind :? if you know any world class players that want to play for us on less money than the big clubs are offering , then please let the club know.
If sir john could spend the max salary then he would, but there is still no guarentee they will want to play for us, stop blaming wilkinson.

I think the equation is pretty simple really;
No Wilky = No Salford

Then again, the majority of supporters simply don't post on here, not by a long way. The Turkey is representative of the opinions of about 20 people. Of those, I reckon 8 could consistently write something worth reading. The rest just pop in here to indulge in whining, gloating, p*ss-taking and all the other playground stuff that every message board suffers.

My tuppence - Our City doesn't deserve a club as good as the one we currently have. Questioning the running of it, when it shouldn't (by sense and rights) even exist as a professional outfit, is the very definition of diluded.

SALFORD RLFC MEANS THE WORLD TO ME AS IT HAS DONE SINCE I WAS A LITTLE BOY DURING THE GREAT ERA OF OUR GREAT CLUB DURING THE SEVENTIES, BUT LETS LOOK AT FACTS
HOW MANY COACHES ;;;; FAR TOO MANY

HOW MANY CHAMPIONSHIPS ;;;;; FAR TOO FEW

34 YEARS WITHOUT THE TITLE ;;;;;

I THINK WE HAVE BEEN PATIENT ENOUGH

LETS SORT THIS MESS OUT
