  1. Ok Derek donates a lot of money to charity which is commendable, it doesn't make him a saint though. A certain Yorkshireman raised millions for charity but wasn't exactly a nice bloke was he? And no I'm not comparing Derek to him but you get the gist right? Lots of rich people donate (as do poor folk), it doesn't make them a perfect human being. As for the Twitter comment, yes it was stupid, but it was completely unintentional so you move on. He'll no doubt post something far more offensive/intentional at some point which we can laugh/cringe at because that's his personality. He's brash and a bit of a balloon, he just happens to be bankrolling his local club and, for the time being at least, it's bringing on field results (which Leigh are rightly getting plaudits for).
  2. Jeez someone loves Degsy.
  3. I'd have stopped after deluded.
  4. Says a Wire fan.... the only atmosphere you can generate is through a 12yo boys brigade drummer and his mates. Priceless.
  5. The word "dimmest" in your username tells an even bigger story.
  6. Incorrect, but then you know that and you're trolling, badly, just like a few others on this thread. So to put you straight..... There was a VX3 merchandise van at the ground on the evening of the HKR game (near the beer tent). The "bench" you refer to would've been one run by the supporters trust to generate funds for the development squad as they sell off a range of second hand rugby goods donated and do raffles etc. TBH, I can't recall the exact reason why we can't use the club shop which Sale have taken over but it's probably due to the high rental which the club can't afford. If you're working to a shoestring budget then spending tens of thousands of pounds a season probably isn't the wisest move when online sales account for the vast majority of your income. You're welcome.
  7. Sorry but you're talking out of your backside and TBH your posts just come across as trolling. You have no idea what efforts the club are making but you are in a position to make assumptions about contracts? Care to tell us how much these "expensive 8 year contracts" cost? Nope, didn't think so. You have no idea so you're just clutching at straws to have a dig.
  8. . People in Salford won't give 2 shiny shoites about a Manchester based team bar possibly a few dozen. Same with jumping ship to support Leigh, Wigan, Wire etc. It won't happen. For Salford fans it's Salford RLFC or nowt. The fact you're comparing RL to the world's biggest sport in relation to glory hunting adds absolutely nothing to your argument. Remind me who your team is again? EDIT: And in relation to these thousands of new Manchester based supporters.... what's enticing them to the sport now that hasn't previously made them supporters?
  9. And the most embarassing post of the week award goes to....
  10. Salford have been hamstrung somewhat in the fact they have no control over any match day revenue and are unable to use the stadium to generate cash via concerts/boxing events etc as they are only a tenant. Feel free to list what "actions" Salford should've been taking, I'm all ears.
  11. Sale's average attendance last year around 5300, down 600 from the previous season. https://gloucesternewscentre.co.uk/gloucester-third-ranked-among-premiership-clubs-in-average-attendances-this-season-despite-cost-of-living-crisis/ Their gates increase significantly when the likes of Saracens/Leicester come to town.
  12. Well you'd better get thinking then cos I want an answer. Agree that he's capable of magic but he does make mistakes. There's no way he gets in ahead of Makinson and (IMO) Welsby is a more accomplished all-round player. So are you gonna leave Bevan out then?
  13. Out of interest who are you dropping out of Welsby, French or Makinson to "find a place" for Field? Which of those 3 is he better than? Whilst he does some amazing things, he's got some weaknesses in his game. Moreso than the others mentioned IMO.
