Well since my last blog Salford have started their recruitment for 2014 with new signings Francis Meli, Adrian Morley and Junior Sau.
As all three a very solid professionals and better than what we currently have. Its certainly a bold statement by Dr Marwan Koukash and with further business in the transfer market to be announced in the future its certainly a good time to be a Red Devil.
If the Doctors quest for further transfer targets are successful and the likes of Rangi Chase, Puliatula and Harrison Hanson pull on the Red shirt next season our expectations will be sky high.
Personally I do hope we dont get carried away with next season, it will take a long time for our new Salford "Galaticos" to bed in and with the new found "jealousy" from other clubs fans there will be a lot of people looking to knock salford of their perch.
Dr Marwan has stated he demands a top 4 finish but realistically finishing 8th, a dabble at the playoffs and a good cup run would be a success in my opinion.
We shall see what happens but the truth is the Doctor is a winner so who knows his fairytale 4th place finish might not be too far away.
On the field performances have been a mixed bag. Great team performance against the widnes vikings at the magic weekend ensured a deserved victory there.
Wakefield and Saints at home ended up blow out scorelines but only after salford were in the arm wrestle for a little while and finally good 1st half performance and hanging on for a victory against London Broncos gives me hope that Noble has the players going in the right direction.
I look forward to the remaining games of the season as traditionally its a time salford usually take their foot of the gas and start looking for their winter break.
This season will hopefully be different, with the current players eather playing for contracts at salford or elsewhere Marwan and Brian Noble cracking the wip should allow there to be no standing still and admiring the view when it comes to the performances both individually and collectively between now and the end of the season.
Personally I feel we have a few more wins in us between now and the end of the season which will hopefully ensure we dont finish bottom of the table.
