Says on sky sports news that noon has received a knock on his previous injury.

Looking forward to the game, seen the ground from the motorway, looking forward to see what it's like and you guys appear to be going well this season. Games is usually tight anyways so should be good. What's the atmosphere like inside new ground.

Starting to pick up although got a long way to go before it reaches the halcyon days of The Shed. It'll be difficult to recreate that kind of atmosphere due to The Shed regulars now being split between the South & West stands. Still, with both teams showing a bit of form it should be a decent game, let's just hope the apathetic Salfordians can get their ar$es down tomorrow & give this team the backing it deserves.

Right I'll start the predictions..........

Reds 20-32 Leeds

Reds 12 - Leeds 36
Attendenance 8967

Att - Salford to pluck another figure out of thin air.

Moon being rested is slightly worrying, hope he's not going to be injury prone as whenever you see him he looks a class above ALA DJ in his forst season.

Reds 22 - Leeds 32
MOM - Burrow
Attendance - 7K OTA

As long as we can put a performance in tonight against the world club champions then I will be happy even if we lose.

Come on the Reds, there would be nothing sweeter though if we could pull the rabbit out of the hat.

Oh & let's crank up the volume nice & early! Tonight is gonna be a massive test & one we're unlikely to win even if we play out of our socks. Don't get me wrong, we can win this game but realistically Leeds will be just that bit better in all departments (well they must be WC champa for a reason ). Let's just look for a good performance & back the lads to the hilt (even if we're getting tonked!). Any newbies there tonight will be that impressed by our vocal support they might forget we've won jack since dinosaurs roamed the earth and will want to come back for the Wigan match!

I've had 20 years of watching (in the main) a load of poop..... the good times are just around the corner so let's do our bit as fans to lift the boys to the next level! RED ARMY!!!

From the club on Facebook:
Bit of extra fun tonight with it being St Patrick's Day this weekend...we have an Irish band on the South Stand concourse, pipers outside the stadium and Guinness Hats being doled out. The team will also be playing in the green kit this evening... fiddle de de
Sounds like fun, eh?

I am still in the States and will unfortunately miss tonights game.
I have had a whole week of stupid hats, everything green (including the beer) corned beef and cabbage and St Patricks day parades with people whose only affiliation to Ireland is that they probably had a pint of Guinness once.
So "fun" is definitely not a word I would put with any other Paddys day celebration

Good stuff from BMD, especially after the Pie arrogance last week.

Looking forward to visiting the new stadium and to both games tonight.
Just hoping I can get out of the car park before midnight.

Well, that was my quote from this afternoon. It's now half time & you know what? I feel like walking out of the ground. Why? Nothing to do with the poor first half performance, but to do with the n0bs that seem to have taken over the south stand tonight. If that's what free/half price tickets does to our fan base then fook the lot of them! More to follow later......:
