From the Publisher:
Salford City Reds are one of the most famous names in Rugby League and established members of the elite Super League. Acentury ago, over 16,000 fans witnessed the first match at their brand new enclosure, a venue renowned throughout the Rugby League world as The Willows.
This is the definitive story of that magnificent old ground, host to both Challenge Cup finals and internationals, and the many wonderful players who have proudly worn the red jersey of Salford. The book takes the reader through the peaks of success, when Wembley glory has been the ultimate prize, and the troughs of despair as long-suffering supporters became known as The 3,000 Mugs. Above all, the story brings to life legendary names like Jimmy Lomas, Gus Risman and David Watkins, players that thrilled the Willows faithful for 100 years.
