Virtually all of the stand that I was in stayed to applaud the Salford players after our team had gone into the dressing room. I don't know if the Salford players heard us chanting "Salford, Salford" as they were doing their warmdown in trhe middle of the pitch!

All this c@=p about being french v english isn't fair - they were outplayed by a better drilled team on the day - even one of the Reds players told me after the game that Catalans wanted to win more than Salford ....say no more
