Put tickets in the pound shop

I remember the Caravan and the Cubby hole on the precinct, but neaither was eye catching. To have this sort of retail it needs to have good merchandising sold by people who care.

There was a post by Chris before where he mentioned the shop becoming a place to hang out when he ran it. That's what it should be, if we had room it should have an aread for fans, maybe a coffee bar etc.

I actually think that the trafford centre, Meadowhall Sheffield and Metro Centre gateshead should be a target for the RFL to market the game.

These shops could sell all the shirts including national ones, they could show where the game is played at all levels. Tickets and promotions, players etc could be used. get Sky involved, maybe you can be the video ref stuff. Even a Vox for feedback.


I know too much time on my hands.

Those were the glory days, dont have the time to do it these days unfortunatly

I think a shop in Salford precinct would be a great idea, if the rents too expensive how about eccles, monton, walkden or the height, perhaps the club should trial it perhaps for 12 mths see if we got regular custom from people and would give us a tool to market the club with.

If it doesnt work ditch it least they can say they tried it and they didnt get enough custom

To those suggesting taking space in The Trafford Centre - I suggest you take a look at the costs: Rent £235,000 (assuming you are willing to sign up for a 15 year lease!!!) Service Charge £15,400 PLUS 7.5% Management Charge Rates Payable £84,000 So we'd need to sell a Myler a year to keep that going!!

Surly We get discount for having Trafford Centre on the Top

Maybe if the trafford centre could give a little bit of a mention to us on the big screen in the orient, not sure if its been done before it probaly has, but I've never seen us mentioned.

how about cleaning up around the willows.
if you come from the coach park you have to hurdle what looks and smells like a pond of toilet water, and on the way out the hurdleing has to be done in the dark. the alleys down eather side of the pitch are full of broken bottles or dog poo, a good sweep befor each game would do wonders for the place. I noticed Wakefields grond is not too different to ours with the only exeption being that it looks clean and a little cared for which can only be good for attracting people. just a thought that would be cheap and effective!

In other news Salford city reds have announced that they will NOT be using the 300k to invest in the squad and there will be no further transfers, Steve Simms said " We have had a look round but we feel the money is better spent elswhere " Im sure a shop in Monton,Eccles,Walken or the Height wouldnt cost anywhere near that.
