All this 'authentic' codswallop is hilarious coming from a fan of a club whose stadium is named after a rich benefactor.....
No we didn’t. We used to get gates the best part of 20,000 in the late 60’s early 70’s when we are in the lower divisions. Salford used to be watched by one man and a dog and have never had any serious support. What a bizarre comparison you are desperately trying to make.
Yeah Madejski came in and was behind the move to the new stadium but we had existed for the best part of 120 years by then with a history of support behind us.
