Doesn't the HJ hold 17k?

Reported that Salford have sold 4,500

Begs the question, where's the 7k empty seats?
Why no pay on the day sales?

Makes no sense but this is the RFL!

Even if 50 people turned up and paid on the gate, that would be a few grand added to the gate receipts.

Sadly, they are worried that fans mixing could lead to trouble!

Salford had to put a press release out urging their fans to think twice before starting trouble!

Just over 15k I think

Yep, 15,200.

And yeah, if we've sold 5k and Salford 4.5, which are the figures I've seen quoted, where are the other 5k+ ?

Probably the idiotic Dire fans wearing Salford shirts..

Same bunch that came to the WCC game against Cronulla wearing Cronulla gear..

Probably the same bunch of misfits that attended the semi against Catalans a while back..

Anyone got a pic of those morons, one was Gaz Hock in drag....

Dire fans..you gotta love em, not even allowed the Super League board anymore until they confirm SL Status...

To be fair, I did wear a beret and string of onions around my neck at Wembley when Saints played Catalan!

Sad if this is what the new-look Salford are going to bring to the game's top table.

Don't remember anything like that when they were a force to be reckoned with back in the 70s. It was usually Warrington and Leigh who brought the trouble-makers.
