If those are your two starting wingers then Salford only need to get good ball out often to Sio and Burgess, they could have a field day.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Doubt you'd have less than 1,000 home fans there, maybe we can now do what 1,000 away fans at our ground do when they claim they outnumbered us 2-1 in a 6,000 crowd

Great to see Fartown selling so many tickets it should be a great game.

Yup, there's a real buzz around our fans at the moment and especially for this game as it's become a bit of a rivalry over the last few years.

If the Giants bring a 1000 plus fans that will be great, the atmosphere will be good let’s hope that the Giants do us a favour at let us sneak a win

As if, we need a win ourselves to keep top 2 hopes alive, should be a cracking atmosphere - and colourful from our lot.

All SRD games are nervy for me 'arry!

There was a time, early Marwan, when the games were a breeze. Simply as within 20 minutes the Reds would be 10,20,30 points behind and there was basically nothing left to worry about. 

Now they are abit more competitive, different matter.

Once ingrained into "same old same Salfordesy-ness", you develop this gut feeling that you will taste defeat even if you are 20 points ahead with ten minutes to go.

Every time. It makes the wins more enjoyable.

I do usually relax when 40 or more up with several seconds left on the clock.

Brilliant stuff from Ch4, sky should take note that this is how to promote games!!

[Futtocks]

Adam Hills trailed the C4 broadcast of this match on tonight's The Last Leg. I know he's involved in the presenting team, but it's still one of those small incidental boosts that helps, and which RL hasn't really had before.

That's exactly it Futty you can barely move or cough without other sports being mentioned all over the place in the media and tire yourself out stepping over the number of football bores and nerds like him on House of Games.

If your never out of the limelight .........

Hull FC beating Saints tomorrow?

Once again, Channel 4's pre-match has been excellent.

will agree- ian watson comes over well in it - like his enthusiasm and positivity is worth a marquee signing in itself

Impressive number of Huddersfield fans.

Time for a return swipe...

With free travel for Huddersfield fans and tickets £10 for adults with under 17s free, I would say a travelling "army" of 1,000 is pretty poor for a game 30 miles away.
