Quote ="fax-boys" Think Nathan Mc Avoy played at Eccles then Salford before the bulls payed a massive transfer fee for him,according to the bulls old programmes.'"
He was and he was a good prospect who made a significant contribution at the club but how many years ago was that? Highlights the problem that we have at grassroots level. We produce a handful of players every decade and most of them go to other clubs.
As other posters have said, a lot of good work is being done in Irlam & Cadishead at present. Go down to Lords St any Sunday morning and you will see junior rugby of all ages. Many of the lads are relatively inexperienced at playing the games and often end up on the wrong end of the scoreline but if the level of committment and dedication can be maintained (easier said than done) the results will come.
Folly are the best run CLUB and Eccles have the best TEAM.
