So our performance against a Giants team that was on form was by far our best performance of the season and that was all down to one man Stefan Ratchford, That is just two games, who knows what could have been if Ratchford hadn't been playing on the wing. So instead of slagging him off why dont you praise him for his attitude not only when given the oppertunity in his favoured position, but his attitude to do anything for the team, I wonder if Myler would have put his hand up to play on the wing?


I am sorry mate Ratchford has done well but that is one of the biggest exagerations I have read on this board. We beat huddersfield, Saints, and Leeds for that matter, because of great team performances. I certainly dont see how you can single out the performances of any player in particular. I also dont really see why you are trying to make excuses for Saints and Leeds just because we beat them. However I suppose from your viewpoint if Ratchford had played well in those games it would have all been down to him too.

im sure if wigan make an offer to sign him he wont be all that good all of a sudden and lewis whatever his name is will be the next best thing.

OK yes he is crap :roll:
We get a exciting young player who has come through the ranks and peoplecome on here having a moan when people praise him.
Lewis Palfrey is the next best thing if you ever took the time to see a reserves game.We also have Eddie Vaughan at full back.
There is a good pool of talent at the club which I hope to see at some stage in the first team.

Not sure whether he will make it, but I really do hope he does. He has the potential and is of course Salford born 'n bred. Would be great to have a local lad at half-back leading us around the pitch.

I agree. It is great to have young players coming through that are actually from Salford. For too long we have relied on the leftovers from the likes of Wigan, Warrington etc after they have signed the players that they want.

I'm sure Ratchford comes from Pemberton, Wigan. :wink:

He was certainly more impressive than Myler in the two recent games v Wigan.






SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

That is my point. Most of our young players are from Wigan, Warrington etc. Presumably they only sign for Salford because they are not deemed good enough, at that time anyway, to be offered contracts by their home town club. Therefore we are always going to be playing catch up as in general we are signing a lower standard of youngster than our rivals. It is harsh but true. It is essntial that we develop more Salford born and bred players who want to sign and play for Salford instead of relying on other areas.

Or we got in first.

Would you say Kallum Watkins was too good for Salford as he signed for Leeds??

Maybe we should say well done to the talent spotters and remember to thank Karl Harrisonand Alan Hunte for getting the academy running as it should

ratchford will never win games like myler will do end of story

I said he was better before all this came out about Myler and Warrington
