| Quote alkermagic="alkermagic"Is that the game where John Duffy got drop kick from near half way line which just nicked it for us at end?'"
If that's the one I'm thinking of, it was against Warrington.

| My first memories were in the 1950s when as kids we were let in at half time for free and the little old man from Luckettis ice cream. He would take a big square shiny metal tin round the terraces selling his ice cream [ same size as a choc ice wrapped in paper , he would shout out " ices , ices " and us kids would follow him round shouting " ices ices , all ice and no cream " then he would chase us off . Also standing on the score board that was on a mound where the clubhouse now stands Happy days.

| climbing in through Weaste cricket club in the seventies! The smell of the liniment when the players used to come out many years ago. Meeting my dad every home game stood under the same flood light with his mates, finding I am doing the same as my dad standing in the open terrace under the flood light with my mates. recent good memories beating Wigan in the cup and ending there long unbeaten run. Worst game that still stands in my memory Castleford putting, I think 70 odd points past us.
What I will not miss is the toilet facilities!

| Good Topic this K.O.T.S.
Some of my best moments
Watching my Daughter lead the team out against Leeds but we got walloped
C.C V Wigan
Cheeky Girls singing at half time.
the Parachutist flying in to the side of the north stand. ( ouch)
The Salford cougar crawl
Mc Avoy drop goal attempt v Bratfud when it nearly took the corner flag out
the Aussie games in the world challange when we played Adalaide.
The Shed atmoshphere in the 80s & 90s when away fans were allowed in. Hostile or what.
The playing surface. ( MUST BE ONE OF THE BEST IN THE SUPER LEAGUE IF NOT THE BEST?)
The friendly against Wigan in the snow
Worst moments
The toilets at ther moment
some of the Death Burgers that have been served there over the years
the drubbing by Cas
seeing Chris Charles in a Salford shirt for the last time.  .

| Wigan CC game, end of, Will take that memory to the grave with me. Got to agree with Karlos about away fans in the shed in the 90's, Leeds being by far the most hostile and there were a fair few scuffles IIRC. I hope we can recreate the old atmosphere one last time before we go to Barton.
Post match drinkies with the players in the mid 90's in the VC after the game.
Favourite tries? One against Saints a few years back springs to mind where the ball must have gone through 15 pairs of hands. Try v KR this year and one of Paul White's v Sheffield was one of my favourite individual efforts,
Half-time Bovril, pre-Super League era.
Korky's conversion attempt.
Like Wardleyred says though, for an old bint The Willows still does it for me every time.

| Forgot the try we scored again Hudds I think when Coley put in some monumental hits and they went backwards 30 yards in the set until Coley put in one last hit in thier own in goal causing them to drop the ball and he dropped on it to score. The hits were all accompanied by the roar.

| As all you red fans are lamenting your memories of the Willows i thought I'd join in.
My favouite memory has to be when we won in 80's in I think then the Lancashire cup I remember Swinton were up for a hiding and we turned the tables and won.
I have always said that the Willows is a proper rugby ground and I have always had good banter with the fans come derby days.I am sure It could have been kept, spending a fraction of the cost that has been used at Barton but as many have said you have to move on.
The lasting best memory for me will be later this season when the last trophy to be paraded around there will Be Swinton crowned league Champions, now that is certainly going to be a send off for the old stadium.!!

| Marshy its a no brainer, if we stay at the Willows we will not get a franchise,
yet teams like Leeds can stay at their own old grond with its old stands and uncovered ends.

| It as to be my first game, v New Zealand in 1955,and to see the fastest man I have seen in a Salford shirt.
Wally MacArthur,also David Watkins first game v Oldham and to see the great players like Watkins Fielding Hesketh
Richards Charlton Gill Coulman Prescott,and the great Colin Dixon,also the best overseas player Neil Baker that we
have had in my opinion.And not forgetting the two first division championships,we won in the seventies,and not forgetting
all the rest,who made us.The great Red Devils.
