| Walking into the shed past the changing rooms, the smell of winter green, cigarettes, sweat and snow in the air.
Don’t think anywhere will ever recreate that for me.
Hearing a few dislocated fingers being popped back in and thinking now [ithis[/i is a game I can get into.
Paul Forber bouncing up and down the try line with his broken ankle all iced up cheering us on to steal a match (can’t remember who it was have a feeling it was Warrington).
Andy Greg telling Ganson exactly what he thought of him and hearing it in the stands.
Andy Greg turning purple, every match he coached.
Beating Wigan in the snow and in the cup.
Hugging a very tearful Mark Lee when we were relegated.
Getting flashed by Paul Highton every time he stretched his legs against the hoardings (baggy shorts...shudder).
Shed support being clapped by opposition teams.
Keeping 'Red Army' going for nearly all of the second half, it escapes me who it was against, and turning it round to a win.
General good humour and wit from the Shed when we were in full voice whether winning or losing (not shouting offside/forward).

More like 10+ years ago now it was Gateshead Thunder me Michigan Red a host of others and King of the Shed were in Rhodes watching it (YES KOTS MISSED A GAME) he was a Geordie (living in Salford) called "Geordie Steve" strangely enough. He was drunk and someone dared him to do it so he did, and spent the rest of the night in pendleton nick. His then mate Geordie John still lives in Salford to this day with a former Willows employee ....

Not actaully read this thread peoperly yet, but noticed that point and yes, it was a belting fight. In fact, if memory serves, if you look the game up on the Micron Video website it's listed as "GB BARLA v Australian Aboiginies - FIGHT"
