Capacity officially is: 11,363
weather for Sunday is cloudy with Sunny intervals , luckily we miss Hurricane Katia , the remnants of which are due Monday .
it should be a great day whatever the result. bearing in mind we haven't beat Catalans at the Willows since 2007
however many actually get in lets make it noisy and memorable , theres only 80 minutes left to sing there for our team , so no time to be shy ,
when we first played there , Queen Victoria was still on postage stamps , Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid were still robbing trains ,and it was the the Boer War not Afghanistan.

If that's true it looks like Salford's highest attendance in SL of 8072 against Leeds in 2007 will be beaten by some distance. Wouldn't it be fantastic experience to be amongst 10,000 plus Salfordians cheering on the lads this Sunday!

I have to question, didn't we get a higher attendance for the Bradford game back in 1997?

I realiase it was a quite a while ago now, but it was still the Super League era.

The only other game I can remember getting that many fans for, was Wigan in the Regal Trophy back in 94. Think that was my second game after converting from a Wigan fan, an epic game, still think we were robbed.

Anyway, got a little emotional reading this thread, gutted to see us leaving the Willows, but really excited about the match. I'm bringing a couple of Lincolnites with me, please don't stare at them, they just look a little freaky but are perfrectly normal. Shouldn't make these comments as my sons officially a Lincolnite.

Does anyone know if we all make a beeline for the pitch at the final whistle will the club get into trouble and fined?

What's everyone's obsession with what the crowd will be? "I'm bring 8 new fans" "I'm bringing 12 fans" :jerk: The crowd will be what it will be! I think more people are interested in bringing more than the other person, just get down there and give the stadium the send off she deserves! Typical small club syndrome how all the fans are acting and begging the club to "announce" ticket sales. Rant over

Look... The obsession for me is to see what the potential interest is in Salford City Reds... If the club can draw a crowd of around 10,000 for the last game at The Willows... That shows for me that 10,000 people have some kind of interest in watching Salford. Going into the new stadium... that's a pretty decent boost I'd say as it gives you an idea of what the potential could be.

Possibly - but more significantly it will balls up the lap of honour from the team and the speeches from John Wilkinson and Matt Parish. I'm sure there will be plenty of time to wander on to the pitch after that.

remember the 18s are playing Warrington aswell, 12 noon kick off, they deserve a good reception after a very successful season, lets all get down and cheer them on.

three generations just leaving now, me, two of my sons and my grandson, my grandson is wearing his Dads shirt from when he was mascot 20 years ago versus Whitehaven, I can't wait, really looking forward to it, a day for celebration but tinged with sadness and tons of memories.

Enjoy your day.
