Yeah it was disappointing, but that's sport sometimes. We're not the only team to get thoroughly outplayed on more than one occasion this season. Every team has suffered some kind of catastrophic mindfart at some point. It's highlighted for us because it was such a key game and we'd been playing well. Sometimes teams that lose momentum like we have with a couple of null weekends find it hard to maintain. We can still have a strong finish with a bit of luck which will lift morale before the start of pre-season.
It's not the end of the world!

Not the end of the world, admittedly. But it is the end of another disappointing season as a Salford fan. I'm running out of time in my desire to see Salford just once perform well enough to reach a cup final or at least manage more than an abject performance in a play off game...

We avoided relegation, which for me was my main concern. Apart from that it has been disappointing in some areas with a sprinkling of what might be. I'm with you on the fact that it would be nice to see Salford succeed in my lifetime. So far the first half of my life has seen me watch Salford decline for all of it. Fingers crossed the second half goes better, and indeed I actually finish the other half.

I can guarantee you will have both halves of your life ... promise.
Sad preacher nailed upon the coloured door of time;
Insane teacher be there reminded of the rhyme.
There'll be no mutant enemy we shall certify;
Political ends, as sad remains, will die.
We were thoroughly outplayed yesterday, which (through gritted teeth) I can accept - it happens to the best of teams.
But when the other team is simply more up for it than our lot, in what was basically our cup final, well I find that hard to take.
We drove over with 4 young fans yesterday, none of which were older than 12. They must wonder what the hell they have done to deserve us dragging them there to watch that. Let's hope social services don't find out...

I was just being optimistic that I'm at the halfway point!

That is why I love the Doc, other owners might think that but he is honest and open enough to admit it.
I can see a couple of the players on the books waving their goodbyes at the Widnes game.
Me and are kid (TheButcher) putting the world two rights.

I think coach and owner need to have a discussion. The team had 4 days off, including the weekend, and were trained very hard on the other days. Wakefield had 10 days off and turned up refreshed, bright eyed and bushy tailed, as opposed to running onto the field already tired.
Perhaps we should stop questioning the players' loyalty commitment and passion and, instead, question if they are being properly prepared?
Surely now is the time to blood some of the fringe players and see what they have to offer? What are the chances?

Salford haven't managed a win against those teams home or away all season.
