Anyone else go to this last night?
Couple of things that stood out from the Q&A session was the extra activity going on with the scouting of local players and the club planning on bringing back the A Team (not of the Murdoch, BA, Face Man variety I may add!😁)
Great news if it happens and should allow local kids more of a chance to pull on the Salford shirt. Used to love double header A team/1st team games at The Willows. Would the SMC allow this though at the AJ Bell seeing as they charge us silly money every time we play on the stadium pitch or would they be forced out onto one of the training pitches? Also, any idea what support we'd get to fund the A team and how much it'd cost to run per season?

Aye: the answers to the questions to Mr Blease showed we were moving forward and realised the limitations we have inherited from our past and also the situation in the area (we're not a Wigan or Hull area). They have plans to deal with these and have started to utilise different options (e.g. not just looking at rugby playing youths but seeing if they can be found in other sports and attracted to playing RL).
You rightly bring up costs. How I wish for the type of backer soccer gets.
