I am getting p1ssed off with the negative vibes ... yet on Friday night I heard some good and positive suggestions.
Needed a forum (in or parallel to Forever Reds) where the fans suggest to the club ways of
-increasing numbers at games
-overcoming the college/hotel collapses so we have some form of stadium that meets the next franchise bid
-ways of marketing the club, the game, and the whole ethos of Salford
-getting together with the club so we can survive NOT getting a stadium, NOT getting a franchise, and LOSING players : so Salford RLFC still exists in 2020.
There must be bags of potential out in our fans - solicitors, business leaders, accountants, persons in sales, persons in property, etc.
We need to get involved now so the club and its fans can meet the issues we are arguing about.
Please NO it's XXX's fault. We haven't the time for that luxury.

Forever reds do this, but we are only small in number, all we ask for membership is £10, we don't ask anything of you, it is up to you if you attend the meetings and meet and ask the players club officials questions. We organise socials to raise money for the club we might ask why not come along and enjoy yourself.
But for £10 meet fellow fans who share your concerns, as a special offer the person who is the 3000th to join will get free membership.

but we need to do this much more formally - literally a standing body that pushes ideas at the club every month and reports back the responses.
We need to work from the question and answer basis to a much more proactive front that has the aim of survival if possible in SL (even if we have to play at .... City [I would have to really gulp down a lot of pride then]) or in NL as a good community entity like Halifax, Leigh or Whitehaven/Workington.
Otherwise we will be respectful but dead.
What I never want to see again are players promising at meetings but doing otherwise.

Great post Hillbilly red, we ALL need to get involved, I am willing to put the effort in & I am sure some of my friends are, we just need a leader & some direction
Lets get the positives back in Salford Rugby club, we have all taken too many negitives just lately.
