Pity we haven't come up with any historical, or even relevant, names for the stands really.

Still think sticking the away fans into the bit closest to the sewage works and calling it the sh*t end could work. I'm sure both clubs would agree on that.

I imagine most grounds were built without stand names originally. Most are something that comes with history, named after great players and such.

I don't think Karlos, or any of the rest of us, have forgotten that we're only tenants. In fact, it's half the issue. But if you'd rather spend your money on Sale than Salford then go for it. Makes a bit of a mockery of your claims you'd rather spend the money on a family holiday, though. Seems you were just looking for an excuse to switch codes.

And I still say you'd be better off buying a dictionary with the cash, especially over watching Sale.

Anyone know if it is stadium or club policy to charge a 10% booking fee on tickets ordered online for Salford games? There is no booking fee for Sale games.

I cannot answer your question but someone naming himself/herself Grumpy Old Shark posted the following at 11.27 yesterday - [iI also experienced a problem with ticketing ~ I wanted to get a couple of extra tickets for my daughter and a friend so tried to purchase them on-line on Thursday evening but the site was not working despite numerous attempts, so I went to SCS on Friday morning and was rather suprprised to be charged a booking fee even though I was there in person paying with cash??? - if the actual price is £22 please dont say it's £20 then charge a £2 additional fee ~ it annoys customers![/i

The Sale fans do seem to have embraced the change of venue with the best of intentions;some travel some distance for their home games and there is a distinct lack of vitriol for those who keep the club solvent despite being uprooted and their lack of success on the field more recently.

Makes a refreshing change - as a television advert for a cider drink once said.

Have Sale now switched to your ticket sale provider?? Their e-ticketing link no longer seems to work.

I believe ticketline charge 10% handling fee. The club basically has to choose either to absorb that and lose 10%, or pass that on to the fans.

It does seem odd that a Sale fan claimed to have to pay a booking fee in person. Maybe that's a leftover from them using a system other than the stadium's ticketline based one.

Leinster was sold through e-ticketing they've now switch to ticketline for their Aviva premiership games.

the game was a pre-season friendly albeit v the reigning European champions

also they are called Sale Sharks RUFC - not Sale RUFC.
There is a Sale FC (1861) in Sale

Many forum contributors have a series of alternative names for Sale rugby club.

Real Ale 4 pints for £10 at Sale on Saturday. Will this offer be on at the Salford game the previous night?

well the last home game it was £2.00 a pint and then for the two hours before kick off £2.50 which is £10.00 for 4 pints for people who have trouble with their maths, you know who you are. Plus that was for all types of ale.
