johnh1 815 Report post Posted August 29, 2019 Just want to say that after supporting this lot for over 50 years, how wonderful it is to be a Salford fan. We have had our downs, we have almost disappeared completely, we have had to move home because of the RFL directive (not applicable to other clubs apparently) yet here we are within touching distance of something great. Happy days. 28 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cookey 1,054 Report post Posted August 30, 2019 Well done Salford. Much more enjoyable to watch with a decent crowd (5,000) Were there many from Bury? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wellsy4HullFC 3,911 Report post Posted August 30, 2019 Would be huge for Salford if they get to the GF. Well, to be fair, it would be huge for anyone other than the usual suspects! So sod Salford, c'mon Hull! 1 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's helped both Leeds and Salford and looks to have been a good deal for both Leeds needed a Lui type player more than a Lolohea player (who didn't look to be enjoying his time at leeds) and Lui was leaving anyway. On Salford, it's great to see them doing well, I like Ian Watson as a coach he coaches his teams to play the right way and they play some great stuff, I hope they can really shake up the playoffs 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damien 9,269 Report post Posted August 31, 2019 I'd be intrigued as to the number of fans Salford would take to a final at Old Trafford. They have always attracted good support when they have got to the likes of semi finals in the past. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oxford 4,271 Report post Posted August 31, 2019 (edited) Well I'm booking my ticket now ... no I'm not mad I just love the GF and the CCF and I missed the latter. October GF + last wine trip to France before allowances, customs and queues take over the experience. No point in optimism.

Scubby 10,861 Report post Posted August 31, 2019 If Salford get to the GF will the fans turn out, or will it be too far to travel? They have been awesome this year and are a real threat. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leeds Wire 754 Report post Posted August 31, 2019 I listened to fighting talk on radio 5 this morning. Justin Moorhouse, a big Man Utd fan, was complaining about Man City nicking the Blue Moon song from Crewe FC or someone like that. I shouted at the radio "but you stole the Red Devils name from Salford!" Good luck to the original Red Devils for the rest of the season. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
