I think there is definitely an issue here. I have applied for my 2 free tickets for the W*gan game. The offer came in an email and you email back to marketing@reds.co.uk. I suppose if the RFL are paying Salford for the tickets then you're getting some money in, but I wouldn't be happy if I'd spent over a ton on a season ticket. How do you think you'll get on against the pies?

F*cking Hell, I'm not botherd who has free tickets and who hasn't even if I did get a free ticket, I would still probably hand some money over because at the end of the day we pay our entrance fee's to provide the club money to continue to run.

YOUR RIGHT DANNY THATS A GREAT CALL BEEN LISTEN TO MY MOANING WIFE TOO MUCH I SHOULD LOOK AT THE BIGGER PICTURE

Jesus Christ, I can't believe some of the idiots on here. Whinge when the club does nothing to encourage more people to come, whinge when they do.

Is it really possible for these people to get in for free every game? Because I can't believe that for one minute.

Season ticket holders, we are the converted one's & we do it to promote our club! how else are we going to convince potential new fans to come without offering these types of incentives. well done Salford, please look at the long term aim.

I am also a season ticket holder of 12 years & don't have a problem with this incentive, I am taking two lads from work who have shown interest but never been to watch a live game.

it says it all that we have to give free tickets away to people through the door in the first place. this says they need to do this just to boost numbers to look good for the franchise

think you have missed the point Danny. i for one have been a season ticket holder for 15 years, and i dont mind the club promoting things like this but is this actually working? how do you know that the peolple who come are actually intrested. they probably give bogus adresses but yet they get a free ticket to come and watch wigan and other big games.sure it looks well having the ground full but where were they againgst quins and celtic?. thats probably what gets peoples backs up, it does mine

My Rugby Union loving Geordie friend at Uni had the offer to recieve a free salford ticket last season, he couln't go but has pestered me ever since to get to a game. He's paying on the door on Friday and he's bloody excited.

So whilst missing out on free tickets etc, he's actually paying to watch the game. The incentive obviously has worked in this case.

season ticket holder for god knows how many years,
in the lottery for 31 years £2.00 a week, £104 a year to date £3224 and counting

about 12 - 16 years ago I was an agent with over 50 members all paying a £1 aweek, but i moved jobs i don't know how many are still in but a number did direct debits at the time.

Guess what i got a free ticket for Friday according to the club we have 5500 lottery mambers all got an invite, so check with club.

Oh I won £75 in 1987
and £10 in 2005
but i m only in the draw to help out the club

my mum got a voucher for 2 free tickets through but only decided to tell me last night and you needed to have applied for them before yesterday! ha i think it's a good idea! just another way to try and get new fans. she also gets free tickets for some gaves coz she works at the uni.
