Remember my Dad telling me about this, old article on the Leeds site. www.therhinos.co.uk/news/4464.php

This post is a funny coincidence lastnight after listening to the game,I got all the old books out Headingley story volumes etc and was reading again about that tragic fateful day

as a salford fan , hopefully our club can have a minutes silence in memory of this tragic loss

It might just be me but I don't care for the choice of wording used for the photo tagline or when it was repeated at the head of the article.

Chris Sanderson was injured while attempting to make a tackle on Salford's Ken Gill. There was an accidental clash of heads and Sanderson was left unconscious on the ground. He died shortly after in Hope hospital just down the road from the Willows. As the article goes on to state the inquest verdict was one of misadventure after what the coroner described as a 'one-in-a-million' accident.

I thought the same too, he wasn't "killed" at all nor was any blame ever attached to the Salford player, a very poor article which you might hope could be edited properly.
