Has John Wells got a job lined up with Toronto?His comments are pathetic.

Nigel Wood has overseen a bad period in the history of our game in my opinion and may be happy what he has taken away with him but should be far from happy with what he has left behind. The RFL has been poorly run,hasn’t communicated with the fans,has allowed major problems, such has referees leaving in mysterious circumstances,officials leaving very quickly, hardly any development officers in positions where they are needed, a shambles of the end of season fixtures,poor promotion of the sport in any format etc. The challenge cup has been devalued,season ticket holders are missing matches to late changes and Sky is running the show for most of the time, TV games now last ages longer than necessary and at some TV games the paying public can see a screen but not see anything on it yet can see the referee taking instructions from above, its either that or they are taking a phone call from someone. All in all his legacy is not a good one.

Not sure there were two or three players in the area.

It was Bussey,he is remembered by a lot of people from the challenge cup match in 2017. The biting incident was clearly shown on TV. The penalty should have given but wasn’t,what rubbed it in was that Bussey was immediately substituted and when he came back on the the second half he complained to the referee the someone had bit his finger.

I wonder what Kayakman’s view of Bussey’s disgraceful act is now?and let’s see what the Match Review Panel makes of it.

I cannot see anywhere that Hastings has had a ten match ban, there was an incident with Dale Cherry Evans at training at Manley Sea Eagles. I think that a previous poster was inferring that Jamie Acton of Leigh hadn’t learnt from previous bans,he got a four month ban this year.

Where did you here that Jackson Hastings had previosly had a ten game ban? I think that a previous poster may have been referring to Jamie Acton.

They also out bid Salford for Matty Russell a few weeks earlier.

The Salford fans certainly hope so.😀

Well, from the minute he arrived at the club he has shown 100% loyalty to the club and it’s fans and on occasions to fans of other clubs,you may or may not have seen the quote from a Halifax fan for Jackon Hastings conduct in the recent qualifier there. The lad committed a foul he has been punished for it and he and the club will have carry on until the Toulouse game regardless.

Irrespective of how many games Hastings got,how many “goons” have TWP signed to achieve what they want. Most clubs have signed players before signing deadline its within the rules of the game.

Krzysztof don’t believe all the stuff that you read on some of these threads,some posters appear to support various clubs according to their posts but in actual fact some will hardly visit a live match. Last year we had.5000/6000 at a challenge cup semi final,so that shows an interest there,last game at the Willows there were 10000 plus. The hard core fans that I know will support the club in whichever league/competition they are in. What doesn’t help the club is so called experts who advised the owner on a strategy on player recruitment with a large expenditure of money that clearly failed and the regular loyal fans that turned up every week forecast what the end result would be right at the start of that experiment,which by the way was initiated by a man very close to Toronto, Mr Noble. What also doesn’t help is the fact that over recent years matches have been arrranged on every day of the week with little or no thought for the fans and their family commitments.

Kryyystuff,I forgot to say that your idea of the stadium location is far off the mark,I can get there quicker than I got to the Willows although I have a longer walk from where we park the car,the same apply’s on the homeward journey. Some of the stadiums biggest critics that I know rarely visited the Willows and have never visited the new stadium,and I pose the question if the stadium is so hard to get to how come hundreds of people attend various events and seminars and gym sessions on a regular basis. Initially I was a big critic of the stadium company but they have improved since the early days and the traffic flow before and after the game is much better than before. We probably have more car parking spaces than any other Superleague club and the away fans are located in the East Stand which is all seated and comfortable unlike the areas that we are allocated at some grounds.

Well then I have put some money in as I want to help the club,which I have supported for many,many years, we haven’t had much success but the pleasure that I and my family have had shows that you can follow a sports club and get a lot of enjoyment out of making friends over many years.

Thank you for that offering ,as a Salford fan since 1946 I agree with every word that you have written.
