| I've not seen anything posted and thought I'd stick a little post here to let anyone know who fancies coming down.
Marwan Koukash organised this game shortly after the murder of Alan by ISIS. He's pledged all of the proceeds from the game to go to Alan's Widow and children, who will be in attendance.
The more people who come down for the day, the more money raised. If anyone fancies a spot of RL and contributing to a great cause the game is on 18th at 3pm.
Cheers.

Great stuff. The kind of thing many RL clubs are quite poor at, engaging with the community.

| While I think the ticket pricing of this crazy, in that I paid £40 for 2 adults when I could have paid £30 for 2 adult and 2 children and saved a tennner, I view it more as a donation to a brave man's family. Maybe £20 a ticket with a child free would have been better for us singles\ child free families?

Exactly. Yes £20 is expensive for a pre-season friendly between Salford and Swinton, but it's more than that. As has been said ALL proceeds are going to the Henning family, this means both Salford and Swinton will not make a penny out of the game and even the AJ Bell Stadium Co wont be taking their usual ridiculously high slice.
Great gesture by all parties involved.

For those like myself who couldn't make the game today, Salford have put up a link on their website where you can make any level of donation to help Alan's family. An ordinary yet extraordinary man whose name will not be forgotten. Proud to be an Salford and RL fan today Cheers

It wants me to register on the reds website before I can make a paypal donation.
