Think it was the 89/90 season for me. Had a free season ticket as went to Hope High at the time. Got no idea who against though. TBH I struggle to remember who we played last week these days !!!
Started in The Shed and bar possibly 1/2 games since have never stood anywhere else.
My first game was when I was a babe in arms so I don't remember it. I have got some photo's of me with the team in 1976 when I was 2 and next to me is the Championship trophy. Still can't remember that but at least the photo's are nice to look at and dream about.

Mine's a bit of strange journey to becoming a Salford Fan. Born and bred in Atherton from a long line of BWFC fans. Went to Leigh Grammar and was introduced by the 'locals' to Leigh v Whitehaven in 1967.
Moved to Wigan in 78 and went with some work mates to Central Park, I then supported Wigan regularly, but over the years got increasingly disallusioned and never went to the JJB.
Started working in Salford in 1997 and already knew Steve McCormack and John Blackburn at the club. My first game was against London Broncos and I think they scored about 50 points against us........but I knew I'd found a new home. I later took my younger daughter against Dewsbury in NL1. She LOVED it!!!!
I've been turning up regularly ever since through thin and thick. My brother is still a Wigan season ticket holder, but I'm proud to call myself a RED...............but as far as football is concerned I'm still White!!!

Similer to Rooted Red, I`d been round the house`s a bit before landing at the Willows 20 odd years ago my route included Wire , Trafford Borough and occasional trips to Chorley and Swinton.
My first game watching Salford was Workington away in the 70`s
My son has been attending games on a regular basis for the last 2 seasons .His 1st game was a reserve/ academy friendly v Halifax in 2002.

. Nothing to do with the amalgamation with Windsor, surely?
