ON ANOTHER NOTE IS THAT LATE GREAT LADY DORIS HALL GOING TO GET A MENTION IN THE NEW STADIUM SHE DID EVERYTHING FOR THIS CLUB DURIN THE SEVENTIES SHE REALLY WAS A LEGEND
In all the meetings that I have attended connected with the stadium when John Wilkinson was in attendance it has been clearly stated that the fans will be asked for their views on what the various stands, banqueting suites etc should be named.
The stadium name could be after a sponsor but will almost certainly include the City of Salford as well but I would assume that the naming rights for the stadium in that location could be fairly lucrative and the development company may want some return on their outlay, which I think is fair.
Ex players, coaches and supporters should be recognised equally so contact the club now with your suggestions Fao Dave Tarry.
