I think some of this we're better than you are chat goes to prove that it should in fact be called Anti Social Media.

Middleman, I'm going to kick myself from the Wheatsheaf to the Exchange!
I am aware of the dyeing process and the name

Foolishly I kept to the latter instead of the more logical first!

When you think of the rarity of a single colour jersey in RL, some of the recent designs offend our history.

I blame the Turkey Lot...

Red Shirt- with White Collar & the Badge , White shorts, Black Socks, can't be hard to do can it ?

Out of interest, why was the fanzine called Scarlet Turkey in the first place Iain, always wondered?)

Shame on you for not buying Issue 1 in August 1998 when we explained it

As others have explained in some detail, it was an old club nickname. Me and a mate saw it in Darrell Platt's excellent History of Salford Rugby League Club book and thought it could be a fanzine name one day.

I actually have no idea what anyone else on this forum looks like, so I couldn't tell you who the Scarlet Turkey crew are either. It's all a bit bizarre this thread.

PS, am I in the crew now? When is my initiation ceremony?

Edit: I actually know who GT is.

On the pitch before tonight's game, look out for this fella:

I'm reletively new to being a Reds fan (1st game was a relegation tussle that we lost to KR prior to becoming a ST holder the following season, travelling to places like Batley, NR cup final at Bloomfield and the extra time GF victory against Crusaders at HJ) due to being a foreigner until 2007...

Like yourself, I only know one person on here personally (well that I'm aware off) and that's the extremely boring and drab Middleman whom I would class as my closest friend...God, occasional posts on here and personally knowing him, does that make me boring too???

Native Salfordians are a funny bunch but you do make me feel at home

Maybe this brilliant idea by the Doc will help bring the different factions together.

The main thing to remember is that the common denominator is we are all Salford fans.

Perhaps this is a good excuse for everyone to upload a picture of themselves.... I reckon I've probably spoke with most people on ST at the matches without even knowing it

Sh*t. I'll have to wear a pair of dark glasses and a comedy moustache tonight, then...
