| Now you all know that I don't tend to have a dig at the club and in-fact find myself constantly defending it but I've got to say £20 is a tad steep and no discount for Season Ticket holders? When you total up what the day could cost you. If you're not a season ticket holder it's £10 to get in, £5 for a programme and £20 for the after match bash add to that that if you are going into the VC at the end of the game you’ll be wanting drinks (@ around £3 a pint) and if you're taking the family it could cost you a fair bit for an day out.
The ground is ours and I just feel that we may be being a little fleeced to celebrate its final day considering the current financial situation some of us find ourselves in. I know many will disagree with me but I fear this may be becoming a cash cow for the club.
“this is an event not to be missed by anyone who considers themselves to be a diehard Salford rugby fan! “
If you can afford it.
[i"Once the formalities are over what other way is there to close the night than with the thing The Willows Variety Centre is most famous for – a fabulous evening of the finest cabaret?"[/i
[i"fantastic live band The Soul Temptations"[/i
Not quite what I and many others had hoped for.
I actually feel a little let down by the amount of events that have (or in fact haven't) taken place to celebrate the old girl all season long and I was hoping that the last day would be something really special but now I'm not so sure.
I know I'll now get the "no matter what the club do there are wrong" statements but this is pretty rare of me to voice my opinions on the club in a negative way but I'll stand by it. £5 or £10 maybe but £20 I'm not liking.

| got to agree KOTS with your sentiments, throw in the fact that it's a Sunday and there's work the morning after I'll be voting with my feet, I'll be at the match, soak up the atmosphere, relive some old memories and then it's home for me and mine.

| I agree with some of your points K.O.T.S, just the one regarding diehards need to be at this event! just say that some diehard fans have a family of 5 and they all want to attend this game? if you were struggling with cash, what do you do? A) Not bring them
B) miss out on the after bash
Surly the club could have erected a temp stage in one corner of the ground and had a after game party for ALL diehard fans and fans who came years ago and wanted to see the old lady for one last time. Just dissapointed that the club for one reason or another have not given the "old Lady" the send off she deserves. ALL Fans should have been allowed to enjoy at least " THE LAST EVER GAME AT THE WILLOWS"

| Sorry but in total agreement with KOTS.
Shameful on a day when we will all be spending a huge amount of money already to ask for £20.
It's the final day of the Willows so why not have musical entertainment provided by someone from Salford rather than a soul band?
There should be as mentioned by others a temporary stage set up for a local band with people given freedom to walk around and spend a bit of time by themselves in quiet contemplation, I for one know I'll blbu like a baby and would appreciate a moment on my own to say my good byes.
IT'S NOT TO LATE TO MAKE A BETTER EFFORT THAN THIS - GET IT SORTED.

KOTS just posting what the club are saying,
for me it is too dear by far and a " party in the park" type show should take place on the pitch after the game, scrap the show in the VC, throw open the doors and let people partake at the bar and then watch the entetainment out on the pitch, a few local bands and the club compeire, how hard can that be to organise, have the exits manned so as to prevent freeloaders from rushing in, perhaps just opening the exit under the club at the end of the match.

| Why didn't somebody at the club ask the fans what they wanted? After all some of the fans have been there longer than the board.

I Appreciate what you say BP and like i say i totally agree with KOTS, i am not having a snipe at him, just saying that there will be a lot of diehard fans who will be bringing there families to the last game and could miss out enjoying the night with other fans they might have spent there lifetime at the Willows with. Again the club SHOULD listen to the fans and have an open air Party with the fans

| Those saying there should be a party on the pitch after the game, the first line of the article isFollowing the after match party outside at the conclusion of the final match at The Willows on September 11 why not carry on the party atmosphere in the Willows Variety Centre?'"
We just don't know what it will involve and how long it will last.
