I was stood in the fairly long queue on Saturday waiting to renew my season ticket and I noticed that some of the t-shirts in the shop had a date of 1876 and some had 1879 as the date that the club was formed.



There was even one particular t-shirt that in one color had 1876 and in another color had 1879. Yes I was bored but I would like to know what is the official date the club formed? According to the official web site's history section it's 1879 but why then are we selling official merchandise with 2 different dates on it?



Any club history experts out there that can shed some light?

History began in 2009.

Given the fiasco of their last home game of the season Salford Zingari would be quite appropriate.

Swinton Zingari would work, they have been roaming from town to town for years!

I think Zingari would be a good chant from the South stand just as the players come out. Stevo and Eddie would not have a clue why it was chanted. Just a thought.

Think Stevo would, he is probably one of the most knowledgeable people in the game when it comes to history. As for the south stand however!
