Story
We have smashed our £500 target! Any additional funds will be split between the Salford Red Devils Academy, Rugby League Cares or a Charity of a players choice.
Weʼre raising £200 (£500*) to show the families of the Salford Red Devil's players, coaches & owner how sorry we are for the events that occurred in Huddersfield.
Following the Salford Red Devil's tremendous 24-26 Easter Monday victory over the Huddersfield Giants at the John Smith's Stadium, a number of fans became involved in an altercation which the families of the players and coaching staff became stuck in the middle of. Understandably this resulted in a number of players entering the stands to protect their loved ones and to divert them away from the altercation and the risk of potential harm.
Salford Red Devil's fans are a proud and passionate bunch. We have always enjoyed a great relationship with the players and their families of our club and we are adamant that this incident will not affect this. Instead, we see it as an opportunity to strengthen the relationship between players and fans and ensure they are fully aware that the actions of a few do not represent that of the majority.
As a token of our compassion and in an attempt to say 'we are sorry' to the players, the coaches, the owner and their families we are aiming to raise enough money to purchase the wives of the players involved in the incident with a bouquet of flowers, as well as gift vouchers for the children with any spare funds donated to a charity of the players choice.
A full letter of apology will also be drafted and issued to the players from the Salford Red Devils fans.
If you could spare as a little as £1 it would be much appreciated.
The intention is to let this page run until just before next weeks home game with the Leeds Rhinos, when the flowers, gifts and letter will be handed over on behalf of all Salford Red Devil's fans to the players.
RED ARMY!
