You'll have to make sure it's the right 10 seconds then, when we are playing RL and not doing a a passable imitation of a Bar Football Table.

So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Went over Barton today. Both stands behind the sticks are in full flow now. As Iain had mentioned to me at Hudds the terracing in place behind the sticks is roughly about 15 steps deep. The main stand looks HUGE! as you go over the bridge. However when you see the other stands next to it I don't think it will look as bad as some people think it will be.
What ever happens as Booby would say " HAPPY DAYS FELLA " I got a sense of excitement when I saw it. I can't wait to watch the lads run out onto the pitch there for our first game in the new stadium.

It's all fenced off but it is a fairly easy jib over the see through fence.

Drove over today too, I agree the main stand did look like it would dwarf the rest but now it's starting to look a lot more even. Is there just one terrace like at the Lobbydome?

Lets be honest, if you're a proper Salford lad i'm sure it won't be a problem!

That's brilliant, wish the Lobbydome was like that, be a much better atmosphere with the away fans. Really looking forward to going to a few Salford games next year. (it's me who's been to a few Salford v Wigan games in my Leyth top! You lot seem to welcome me with open arms, knowing i'm on your side!)
