Re: New Stadium Site Update Thread!!! : Mon Jun 20, 2011 7:16 pm
I find the points put forward by the various posters interesting and my views are as follows-During the many years of watching the Salford City Reds I have graduated from standing behind the sticks at the present North Stand, then it was in front of the Tea Room, to standing in what was the Popular Side Stand, now the Shed, I then moved with the family into the Family stand and finally we are now all in the Austin Trueman Stand and we have pre-booked our seats at the new stadium in the West Stand.
In my view the the best position to be at the Willows is in the Austin Trueman Stand although the best overall view is from the Family Stand,if you can miss out the odd girder but people are all different and want their own spot.
With regards to the standing position at the new Stadium, at most if not all the away grounds the Salford fans tend to congregate at a position behind the sticks.
Most away supporters at the Willows, from the well supported clubs in particular make more than enough noise from behind the sticks and the atmosphere that they create is usually excellent
And our fans should aim to re-create the noise that the shed can generate from behind the sticks at Barton.
The Castleford fans were shouting for forward passes, knock on's, offside etc all the time, if they can see them so can we.
Lets make the new stadium a big success and take the club forward.
