For 'welfare' reasons apparently. They didn't even inform us, our media manager found out from theirs!
Did they call it off because of the planned 1873 protest. It is being reported that they were offered a number of players but didn't chase them up.
Disgraceful.
I wonder if these welfare issues existed round 1 vs Saints when they played academy players willingly. Or last week when there was number of players making SL debuts and young players.
As it stands we can mathematically finish on same points as a few teams. Points difference could come into play.
We now have a situation where we have played 1 game in 4 weeks only 6 games from playoffs. Talk about going into the business end undercooked. To make matters worse it’s off the back of a poor loss the players likely want to put right asap.
Not impressed at all by this.
The difference is this time there were only 2 players that had played SL level before and many only academy.Although I don't like it I can't say I disagree.
And yet, they have apparently turned down offers of new players, for reasons known only to Salford.
It appears that they didn't want to face the protest and found a way to have the fixture stopped, at less than 48hours notice !
