i agree

I hear what your saying Holty but Widnes' ground is in a very residential area and they have managed. The shed could easily be re-modelled along similar lines but just looking a bit more shiney and new.



The Austin trueman stand could be brought forward towards the pitch getting rid of the track area and thus allowing for the stand to be built back up to the same height as the directors stand is now all the way down the length of the pitch. This would ensure residents couldn't complain about it be too high.



If we joined the shed and the Austin Trueman to the North stand we would have one end completely enclosed eventually.



Have to admit I'm not sure what could be done with the club end. Maybe extend it down towards the pitch as hospitality areas for sponsors?????



Red Willow: I didn't say it would be easy to just buy back the Willows and I admit I don't have all the answers but it would seem we as fans have more ideas than the board at present. Until they actually TELL US otherwise that is.



I agree that the surrounding area is not the greatest but perhaps with regeneration of the ground it will improve?!? Maybe we could even have a task force organised by the Forever Reds to help maintain the area surrounding the ground?



It wouldn't be the first time the fans have mucked in to help sort the ground out. I remember loads of us going down to help get sheets off the ground when it was frosty for a big game against Leeds about 20 years ago. People say they want a community club- start with a Community!!!!

The problem with that is that they're not always able to tell us things. There could be allsorts going on behind the scenes, but bringing that into the public domain could jeopardise things for one reason or another. It's not just Salford that do this, believe me. I know it's not perfect and we all get frustrated with it, but we do need to show a little understanding towards that.



As for developing the Willows, I too can see no reason why something can't be done. There's got to be a way in this day and age of sprucing the place up a bit. And there's loads of room in front of the Main Stand to develop that part of the ground.



I'd guess it's all "ifs" and "buts" now, though.

Even more cynical after listening to the infant Balls whitter on how he could save so many millions from education for "affordable housing" ... money that has come from college development ... asPFI is working.

What Private Finances?

If I may?



Random Turkey User: "Why wont Wilky return my emails? Too busy spending my £11 I suppose. Where's my stadium? I want answers, we all look stupid, can't they setup a webcam in the boardroom for me!? I've watched my last game. The silence speaks volumes..."



On the premise that no news is bad news (above) then surely some news (no matter how bad) is good news?



Street party anyone??

ANY OFFICIAL NEWS from Salford City Reds has got to be good news.



I know it's not what we all want to here but at least it's something to give us all hope for the future.

how many more false dawns?

The only thing that press release is announcing is that were are now entering creek and we are about to lose the paddles.
