It’s going to take more than a leap year for Swinton Lions to beat the Salford City Reds this evening..

Very interesting article all the same Kate…

If Parkin is being a pain the I will be as well!

There was over 18000 at the Willows against Widnes at the Willows in 1969 in a Challenge Cup Tie. Plus I’m pretty sure we’ve had many cup ties with higher gates than that one against St’s in 1976.

Good article by the way.

That’s a great read, excellent article. Keep them coming.

Although just one thing I’m not sure about:

1976 Salford V St Helens (RL Challenge Cup – Round 2) 11-17 A record attendance at the Willows of 13,023.

Does this mean for a Challenge Cup game at the Willows?

Sorry for being a pain.
