Just read all of your passage on the Willows and would just like to say I was very impressed by the way you composed it.
I am by no means a Salford fan, but as a rugby league fan it certainly gets over the atmosphere and sense of going to a game.
The Willows was a proper rugby ground similar to the Old Station Rd, luckily your fans were given the chance to celebrate it's closure.
I will hold judgement as to whether or not the barton ground will allow you to create the same atmosphere as my personal opinion is these new grounds lack that.
Well written and a good read.

Yes, a great read Stokey. All supporters whether of one, ten or fifty years will relate to your experiences of the twisted, tortuous path that leads to Red Heaven.
As another great opportunity presents itself, deep down we all know the Club have the remarkable ability not to take advantage of it. Still, I can't wait to buy my season ticket and watch it all unfold before me.
