Me and are kid (TheButcher) putting the world two rights. ERIC SHAW PREDICTION LEAGUE & PLAY OFFS WINNER 2013 Don't like it? Well Frack off then. Energy & progress for all.

She will be sadley missed but she is in need of being put down.

Best memory was when Richard Webster ran the width of the pitch to Get Jason Critchley with the most brutal high tackle ever when he was playing for Keighley.

Got to say that the try against Hull KR this season is the best I think I've seen in 40 years of going to the Willows.

Oh yeah and the Offia drop goal.

IF WIDNES DESERVE A PLACE IN SUPER LEAGUE.......THEN THE POPE IS JEWISH!:33469.jpg



Silly as it sounds i think the willows isnt as outdated and in ruins as alot of folk think,i was stood having a crafty fag up by the north stand at half time last night pondering in deep thought looking around the place.The place is well kept,the north stand is one of my fav stands in any stadium ive been to(when was it built)the clubhouse end is unique in many ways with such a great facility behind it.Whats wrong with the main stand?The terracing around the stadium is in very good nick and far from hardly crumbling! The shed is the shed at the end of the day !The playing surface is easily one of the best in super league. The only thing that i think lets the place down is the dire toilet facilities and food and drink outlets,plus it does look a bit of a sh it tip in places from the outside!

How the terracing is deemed safe at creator odsall is beyond me,the jungle/wheeldon road/collesium what ever it called is full of asbestos !!Belle Vue is in a league of its own and bar the big terrace stand at craven park,the rest of the place needs blowing up!

From an atmosphere point of view, when Leeds and Hull fans used to come in the shed. Used to make for a quality atmosphere. Always managed to give as good as we got as well. icon_cool.gif

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 icon_biggrin.gifOH:
C.C V Wigan
Cheeky Girls singing at half time. icon_hearteyes.gif
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 eusa_whistle.gif
the drubbing by Cas icon_mad.gif
seeing Chris Charles in a Salford shirt for the last time. icon_cry.gif .
