Sale Holmfield:
I can remember my one visit to Rylands, as they were then called, for football, was around 1989. when I saw our reserves, featuring Barry Diamond, play there in the Mid-Cheshire League.  They had a bit of cover, but I remember having to stoop to fit under the roof. I am quite tall, to be fair, but not that tall!

There was a much larger crowd watching the rugby league section. TImes have clearly changed since then, but Warrington Rylands still haven't attracted much interest from the Warrington public, despite Stretford's money. In contrast, Town's crowds do seem to have slowly but surely increased over the years.
