Just trying to get away from the mcrae slagging off and blame everyone at the club. Next year COULD be one of the last seasons at our famous ground. The question i would like to ask is. What is your best memory/moment of our famous ground. i will start

1, Ending wigans long run in the challenge cup
2, That tackle by Richard Webster on Jason Critchley (ouch)

David Watkins winning debut against Oldham, that night it was electric in the shed before during and after the game...What a fantastic night.

Beating the mighty Wigan in the Challenge Cup

Mark Lee winning drop goal against Bradford in front of the North Stand.

At last but not least I also remeber that tackle/hit by Richard Webster on Jason Critchley against Keighley Cougars...

Too many for one post , but here I go-

The day I stood next to Barney Hudson in the popular side stand(now known as the shed)
The day Gus Risman handed me my free ticket to see a match.
The day we signed Ken Richards and his first try.
The day we signed David Watkins, Colin Dixon,Paul Charlton,Chris Hesketh,Maurice Richards, Keith Fielding, Ken Gill etc,etc.

Every time we beat Wigan, St Helens, Leeds, Bradford,Warrington etc.

The time that the steward asked the 20 stone Bradford fan to vacate my seat in the Austin Truman stand and we won that match as well.

The day we got the franchise.

The day the new stadium is opened(obviously this is one for the near future)

When we knocked Wigan out of the cup and the TV camera moved around the ground and that most loyal Wigan fan John Massey was picked up actually crying at the final whistle.

Anytime that we win, draw or even just play well.

Salford 31-30 Wigan. A drop from swampy and a brace of tries from nick pinkney, the end of endacotts reign too correct me if i'm wrong. First time i saw Salford beat Wigan at the willows. Away from there, the semi at leeds was my first away game, obviously the result was devastating but for my first away game, shown me the pro's and cons of supporting the reds. Sadistically. 96-16 against Bradford was also a meaningful game for me, it taught me what supporting Salford was all about. While you're there, you sing til your lungs burst. In support of the team, that is. Whether we lose, regardless of the manner of defeat, its still OUR team. If you don't wanna get behind the lads, there are plenty of other teams locally. this is aimed at the morons who want to dish it out, i know that doesn't apply to the majority on here. But if you can watch your team get annihalated like we were there, and still support them after that, then thats cool. If you didn't see that and are calling for heads to roll, get an f'in grip.

"The day I stood next to Barney Hudson in the popular side stand(now known as the shed)

I'm so green with envy that I'm been sent home from work as unwell. :SICK:






Sad preacher nailed upon the coloured door of time;
Insane teacher be there reminded of the rhyme.
There'll be no mutant enemy we shall certify;
Political ends, as sad remains, will die.
