We arnt saying don't sing just pick a song relevant to what is going on the field not for example " easy easy " when its the 1st try of the game and we are 6-0 up your setting yourself up for a fall and doing the cheering every tackle when we are less than a 2 scores infront one slip from our defence and again its egg on the sheds face.
Finally the one that annoys the most we support salford so let's try and sing about ourselves if the game is tight and we are looking leggy the last thing our players want is the shed winding our opposition up, sing about us might put half a yard back in the tank which is the difference between winning and losing.

And now the positive bit.....

You have got big numbers on your side of the shed and your very vocal all the time , much bigger than us if we are honest, mostly because people have vacated n gone to the jeb end for a quieter life, few years down the line when u know the score we might even have a bit of banter that's if you havnt moved over to our side and you have been replaced by the next generation so the cycle of shed preservaton society and the young ones can start again.

Also magic word thing I thought was creative but its an "in " thing like us singing about Norris Cole and Gt on the dole, your song but " get into them" and "BOOM" might work a little better

Now, now Shirl, Martin has never set a song off or a good example for that matter so don't apologise to him

BR1, your quite welcome to stand with me, tell me what you want to sing next and if appropriate we'll bellow it out together! If its not quite appropriate I'll let you know, I'll belt one out at the right time and you'll learn from then, its not a lesson its an understanding!

Most important, watch the friggin game and you'll know whats what!

Good post Bobby.

And I hope the rest of the shed don't let you down, shame its only against Harlequins but hey there will be future games where you'll hear a song and think WOW quality timing I'm in on that one, or - you might have even stated it!

the shed summed up in one post
well done for owning up pearson take some of this advice on board
its all part of the salford right of passage

I totally agree with you optimist about the chants from some sections of the shed every home game we try and wind up the opposition and end up with egg on our faces i just hope the next home game we have learnt to chant our own boys and forget the away fans for once

Just sing pro-Salford songs for the full 80 mins then you don't have to worry about timing at all.

And with regards to the 'oush' if you can come up with something more creative than 'magic word' then I think it could potentially be quite good tbh.

Daz condemning drunken ballooning behaviour in The Con Club, I really have heard it all now.

Made me chuckle that bit but to be fair he doesn't run around and want to fight the world like some people do.

The shed / Red army is an institution, its bigger than you, me or any individual, its traditions have been passed down from father to son, mate to mate from when it all began in the 80s with the terrace legends like Budge,Big Dave and Eddie and many more who set the wheels in motion to what we have today.

At this moment in time the stage is ours and we owe it to them to give the shed the send off it deserves and to carry its traditions into the new stadium in barton in 2012

Classic post Zenith and yes he really does want to run around and 'boot off' with the world!

Reading some of these posts i'm reminded why i don't stand in The Shed anymore.

It's surely up to the club to manage the crowd in their own stadium rather than the RFL sanitising it from afar with an army of dictatorial killjoys.

I WANT THE OLD SHED BACK!!

you know the one that has slowly started to die a death since about 2006?

used to get so excited at the thought of there being a salford game on, (even at home) not just for the rugby, but for the shed, the atmosphere we created and standing and watching the rugby with a really good group of lads... as Zenith has said some have vacated to the jeb end, i even remember the scholes's standing at the club end for a while!!

Remember the old banter with the 'right side'? or that famous leeds game where they had their singers stood in the shed? absolutely rocking atmosphere at times!

if we could re-create that for just one of the remaining home games i would be very happy, unfortunately i dont think that will happen, i dont think we are giving the shed the send of it deserves!

Time moves on like people do it won't go back to the glory days you move on adapt or die that's both on and off the field.

To be fair imo this season the shed has taken a giant step forward in atmosphereso I ain't moaning
