Brilliant sevens competitions in the summer. Salford winning them with a team that included Watkins, Hesketh, Charlton, Dixon, Fielding, Richards, etc.

On the coach coming off the M1 at Staple's Corner at about 1.00 a.m. of a Monday morning after a game at Workington or Whitehaven, looking at the blocks of flats with only one or two lights still on and thinking 'I've done something this weekend - have you lot?'.
Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently. Rosa Luxemburg, 'Die russiche Revolution'.

so what memory stands out for you - try and keep this serious-ish as it will be interesting to see what fans of different clubs/eras/generations come up with...........away ya go !
When Hudds were called Baracuders and played before double figure crowds, they were the days. Mind they still do play before double figure crowds when the away support is a bit thin.

Thats pretty much all I remember from early games I went too!
My memory for games is generally pretty poor even for recent games but the first game that stands out in my memory is when we played Paris the day Diana died - all games before that seem to just be a big blur!
